[re_nsyshid] Wii U USB Device Emulator

Yeah I essentially want to have a separate .bin file for every single character/vehicle/gadget etc. so that I can add them to this area:

Yeah that makes sense - you could create 20/30 blank tags, load up a nearly complete save game and then write the gadgets/vehicles you want to the tags but I appreciate that is a lot of effort, I will see if I can make a quick tool of sorts to create vehicles and gadgets

Is it limited to 20-30 blank tags or is it possible to put as many skylander bin files as you have in that folder to create vehicles or characters when needed? It would make it a lot easier with just a one time set up of the sd card instead of a rearrangement everytime you play another game with this feature. And why is a complete save file necessary if you could play from the beginning and add the acquired figurines when they're needed in the game?

You can put as many Skylanders/Infinity Files/Dimensions Files in the wiiu/re_nsyshid folder, and you can use subfolders as well so I have a re_nsyshid/Skylander folder, re_nsyshid/Infinity, re_nsyshid/Dimensions folder and put all of my dumps in there, I think I have 300+ dumps across all 3 games. For Lego Dimensions I haven’t created a way to create vehicles and gadgets on Cemu, so the only way at the moment is to dump your own or to create a blank tag every time the game wants you to put a blank tag on the Toypad

Sounds great. Thanks. I will try it out the next days. One last thing: will it work with other amiboos in different games like yoshis wholly world or toad treasure tracker? As far as I know they were using the same nfc tags for the figurines

Thank you for this!

That would be super helpful, I appreciate it. I was able to grab many .bin files off of nfc-bank before it went down, so after some googling, I found the ones I'm missing are these:

Spoiler

Betelgeuse
Saturn's Sandworm
MACUSA
Tina Goldstein
Ecto-1 (2016)
Zhu's Chinese Restaurant
Hermione Granger
Buckbeak
Chase McCain
Police Helicopter
Beast Boy
T-Car
Raven
Spellbook of Azarath
Starfire
Titan Robot
Sloth
One-Eyed Willy’s Pirate Ship
Skeleton Organ
Bat-Computer
Blossom
Buttercup
Bubbles
PPG Smartphone
Octi
Mega Blast Bot

A random assortment, basically, so yes being able to create them at will would be perfect.

Finally, i can play Disney Infinity and Skylanders on my Wii U, it works great. I’d love to see something like this on 3DS so i could play the 3DS version of Disney Infinity.

Just tested it with superchargers. It's amazing. Thank you again. For those who are wondering about amiibos: they are not working with this method.

Is it possible to make that happen in the future or do amiibos use a complete different nfc technique?

there's a different plugin that emulates amiibo > https://github.com/GaryOderNichts/re_nfpii

this is sick!! thanks so much dude

Very useful plugin! I was thinking into buy an external USB emulator, but this is the best way to play those games!

Amiibo uses a different method - this is only for games that use USB devices to load figures

If I can get a 3DS I will try but I don't think homebrew is possible for the IR methods there

No problem, that’s okay. Do you think you could make a plugin that the Pro Controller could be used as the Gamepad for Gamepad-only games like Splatoon, Paper Mario, Batman Arkham City and Mario & Sonic 2016? I don’t mind playing with the gamepad but it would be nice to use the Pro Controller.

That is not my area of expertise, not sure how that would be related but someone else will need to build that

I have used your plugin for Disney Infinity, and it was great! Thanks a lot!
I have a suggestion.
- Fast scrolling like "Page Down/up" or "RepeatMode" while holding up/down pressed. This is important when you must navigate through several files like nfc tags (there are hundreds of files).

In the other hand I had a couple of game freezes while changing the nfc tags, needing a Hard Reset to recover, I don't know if there are any kind of traces I could attach in order to help

Thanks for that - the page up/down could be a good one to add, don't think there are any traces unfortunately but I am currently trying to diagnose some other bugs raised on my github so I will try to see if I can recreate the same, is it any particular tags that always make the game crash or do they all crash the game at some point?

Just wondering if you could integrate a search function with tags like air, earth, fire etc? So if a specific element in skylanders is needed, you just select an element and then come all the skylanders which are compatible with it. I know that not all skylanders are compatible with every game, but in that case you will get a message from the game
