Whether lurking on an older firmware, banned from online activities, or unwilling to fork out for Nintendo's Switch Online, a lot of us find ourselves stuck in the void of single-player gaming. The release of switch-lan-play opened doors previously closed, allowing us to play a select list of games online regardless of bans and subscriptions. Taking another step forwards, we have ldn_mitm: a custom kip to break the final chains, to allow almost every game supporting local wireless to be enjoyed online.

Requirements:

1. Atmosphère 0.8.0+ SXOS 2.5 Beta+
   
2. switch-lan-play (setup guide)
3. ldn_mitm

How to Use (Atmosphere):

1. Download the zip from the release pages.
2. Extract the zip to your sd card,
3. Boot up Atmosphere with fusee primary.bin
4. Start your game of choice, and select local wireless play
5. (Optional) Use official Switch-lan-play discord to match make and find other players,

How to Use (SXOS):

1. Download the latest SXOS. Here
   
2. Go to SX Menu then to options.
   
3. Enable ldn_mitm,
4. Go in-game and select the Wireless Play Option (If you see an L in your WiFi bars that means that the kip did not load and that you need to reboot)

You can find a list of currently tested games here.


It is recommended to only use ldn_mitm and lan-play.exe from their official releases, third-party apps and homebrew are not supported.

yeah I made sure it was toggled correctly. My friend (same one that I mentioned in my post that had it working) had the same issue as me...just stopped working all of a sudden and he had to reboot.
--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

Question...I wonder if it would be possible to get a non hacked Switch to join in on a game that was hosted by a hacked Switched (on the same wifi network) and also allow someone else across the internet (also with a hacked switch) to also join.

I have three switches in my household...all but one are hacked (not touching that one due to needing to play online with it) and would like to somehow get a 4 player game of Splatoon going with a friend who lives elsewhere.

I'm thinking it SHOULD work as long as the game is hosted by a switch that is local to the non hacked Switch...but not sure if that server running in promiscuous mode and listening to all the packets will interfere somehow.

Let us know! I'm curious too

Ok it worked by merging, Smash still corrupts, but all my other games play fine, and I can access the hbloader menu. I'm just gonna download a brand new official smash nsp and hope that fixes it.

Any word on Pokémon Let's Go compatibility?

I'm not sure how this works exactly but I am on the latest Atmosphere and there is already a kips_patches folder inside the atmosphere folder... Do I put the Kip file in there or do I still need a separate "kips" folder to be created/

I gave up. Considering Atmosphere is the "standard" for CFW and the fact that I can't see how this works with Atmosphere 0.8.2 (and I'm no idiot when it comes to these things) I just figured any other layman would have absolutely no hope of getting this working so fck it .Will carry on with my single player games until a more user friendly version that clearly instructs on how to run it on the latest Atmosphere release is made .this is just way too much hassle.

you just need to put the kip file in 'kips' folder inside atmosphere, simple as that

But there is no kips folder inside "atmosphere" do you mean kips_patches for Atmosphere 0.8.2?

whats the deal with this?? does this even work with reinx? i get frustrated when im doing everything correct and its not working despite me following ALL the instructions. does anyone have this working? and if so, what OS, what, cfw, and what dongle (if used) all this does is freezing my switch on boot whenever i boot with it.

 

[Kazumal]

@xdarkmario you need to you the Reinx version of the KIP. Check github

Oh btw.. new kip seems to work with smash+ xlink kai. still waiting on the reinx version to test though.

 

[xdarkmario]

found the issue. in the debug logs it was something about ftp error. and i have a ftp kip installed. so it looks looks the 2 kips are incompatible with each other. i have it working now. also @Kazumal how do us do this with x link kai, theres no section for smash ultimate yet
