No save editor is yet in stable release yet, to my knowledge, so they're all unstable, which means anything can happen. Additionally, while correctly-made and applied cheats might be safer for save integrity, you can still get banned. If you want to stay safe, don't cheat.


It would be better to change the modifiers for different colors rather than having to activate them separately. That said, check out RyDog's new code, above (also quoted in this post).



Heartily agree. If it was just his friend (and if he hadn't edited his posts to be dots), he'd just use the cheat for them, or export/import their saves to his so he could cheat.

Honestly, we have the cheats for the non-amiibo villagers, and this thread is for people with hacked switches. If anyone pushes for any of the non-amiibo villagers, especially Raymond, I move to ignore them entirely. I'd make it a thread rule if this were actually my thread, and not just something I have edit-capabilities on. I've seen a few people now have that exact goal and nothing else, and they keep pushing specifically for the "in boxes" method, because I assume they don't actually have any access to the switch they're trying to change, and are trying to use this to make money. F*ck that. (Are we allowed to curse on gbatemp?)

If they truly just want a villager, it's fine to get them in "their hacked switch" and wait for it to go to "their legit one"/"their friend" etc, naturally over time. Like this one:


Just import your save. I really don't believe you're maintaining two save files and playing on both for no reason. And even if you are, import legit save, mystery island cheat, export back to legit. Otherwise, wait for it to happen naturally.

I'm hereby ignoring all requests for amiibo-only mystery island villagers in boxes. I would implore other devs/hackers to do the same. It's been answered several times, and you'll only want an easier/faster method if that won't do you long-term because you're not just getting your villagers and settling down, you're moving them for money.


You're most welcome. Thank you for being appreciative, and not just getting what you want and peace-ing out or immediately demanding something better.


You are absolutely amazing at this, holy crap. Is it alright if I link that pastebin from my generator? This obsoletes my code generator as far as I'm concerned (for items, at least).

I've looked into getting my save from my patched switch but I could never find how to use JKSV for an unpatched switch. I also tried doing the bspatch with the save editor and it only makes Raymond move out completely not have him in boxes. I just simply want Raymond on my switch I go online with. If you could provide a link or way on how to edit saves from an patched switch please let me know.

Your site is still useful for people uploading set codes :P
And go right ahead

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

This is really cool thank you! Would it be possible in a later revision for a second input and like ZR + D up/down to change the quantity or in furniture cases different colors?
It already does! Press ZR + D Pad left to change the quantity to whatever's in chat.

I am not really understanding what you are saying here, but if I understand it correctly, there is no way to edit a save file from a patched switch. The only thing you can do is making the villager move out from an unpatched switch to the patched switch through the in-game local system.

Right so if i want a villager to move to my town they have to be in boxes on the cfw switch and I tried to use h448 method to patch raymond but everytime I load him in the save editor and boot into that save file it's an empty plot. All I'm asking is if anyone can provide the Raymond_Move nhv file so I can try to load it in my save file. I'm not really sure if there's any other faster way of getting raymond in the move box state besides h448's method and that isn't seeming to work for me.

You could try empty.nhv file loaded into the editor and try to get Raymond back by importing him back in. I think it was page 120/h448 or something? I don't remember, but you'd have to find that on your own. Also, know that the editor doesn't seem to support move out/in state for the villagers as of right now. But correct me if I am wrong.

So I successfully made Marshal to pack up his stuffs and everything is packed in his house; however, whenever I talk to him, he doesn't talk anything about packing and leaving. Is that normal? @h448

I'm just learning how to hack, could anybody pinpoint me to the right direction in changing colors of certain furniture items? Currently using SXOS, JKSV, and NHSE to decorate my island. Using the item editor in NHSE, I'm putting furniture in my inventory and placing them to decorate my island, but certain items like Neon Sign, Diner Items, Tables, BBQ, etc don't change with customize kits. How do I change the color variants?

I also looked at Rydog's code, but I don't think it works with SXOS.

I'm having an issue spawning a specific item in my inventory - Cherry Blossom Branch DIY.
I've tried a few codes and even changed slot locations but nothing comes up. All the other Cherry Blossom items appear except this one.
Any idea whats going on?

Also, do you know if it's save to restore Emuand save file onto Sysnand?
No, every time I've forced someone to be in boxes, they've discussed leaving. Occasionally, they act like they're making something on an invisible workbench, but they still say that they're leaving. And the next day they are gone.

It doesn't. SX OS is just a fork of Atmosphere anyhow, I'd just switch to that. In any case, some item variations have entirely different IDs, just look in the pastebin, or one of the save editors item IDs files.

That was mentioned previously in the thread: I think the recipe ID is wrong for that one in the pastebin.

This is a pretty large code. Depending how many codes you have it could be getting cut off. What if you move it to the top and make it your first code?
I already did that but still not working :(

Tried the instructions but nothing :/
For text to item:
Send in chat the ID you want to use, press X + D-Pad Right to spawn the item in your inventory slot 01
press X + D-Pad Left to modify the item.

To use the buffer version (probably safer):
Just write the item ID in the keyboard, and then press ZR + D Pad Right/Left

([Chat Buffer to Slot 1(Y+D-Pad Right: Item ID|Y + D-Pad Left: Modifier)]

Thanks for responding! I'll take a look at the other posts then.

Does anyone know if using h448's method you need to start with 10 villagers already in your town? I only have 5 on my save and when I try to patch Raymond using bspatch and loading it into NHSE when I load the save file its just an empty lot where his house would be.

I used h448's method to get Judy in boxes and it worked perfectly first try. But for some reason I could not get it to work with Raymond. I tried it on a "legit" Raymond I got from an island visit (no cheats on ar anything), I tried it with a Raymond I edited another villager into with NHSE and I tried it with a Raymond.nhv I loaded up over over a villager, but every time it just turned Raymond into an empty lot. After I got the method to work with Judy I showed a friend this forum and he got it to work with Raymond, so I'm not sure what's happening there.

I tried on several save files. One with 10, one with 9, one with 10 that I loaded empty.nhv over to make it 9 etc.
After my earlier post I managed to get it to work on a Marshal.nhv I loaded. But I went back and tried again with Raymond and still no dice. I'm at a loss trying to understand why Raymond is refusing to work with me here.
