Well folks, there won't be any preview pics today. The company I ordered from sent me standard PVC cards and not inkjet cards, despite much clarification and assurance. I have submitted a refund request because I could get standard PVC NTAG215 cards for cheaper than what I paid for these ones. If they tell me I can keep these ones then I'll likely go the sticker paper route rather than let them go to waste.

I updated my guide, if anyone wants the guide + files send me a PM

Now it includes Tagmo 2.1 and just one single keys.bin file (unfixed key + locked key combined)

Now it should be as simple as loading the keys.bin file one time, then just load your amiibo bin file and ready to write.

I tried to pm you but don't know how. I'm new here.

Id like to get this from you but have spent 20 minutes trying to find the option to PM you. Maybe it doesn't let me since I just made my account. I just don't know where to send you a message.

I finally made some tags after a year of posting that. I gotta say, I'm at a loss at how to make them. The program is pretty buggy and had to use an older version before I created a few amiibos. I had to use Tagmo 2.1, and 2.3.1 also worked. But the latest version crashes as soon as you scan a tag.

I'm surprised people still see my old post about the guide haha

Can you help me out? I'm thinking of using Tagmo 2.1 but need the bin file for the keys.

You wanna be banned? Read thread how find or make one, nobody would share them...

Maybe you could have told me that instead of being condescending. I had no idea that no one would share them. This is the first time I even attempt any of this stuff. Thanks for your help tho...

Ah damn. If you were to print on it, would the ink not settle at all? So it can be wiped?

Did it say non inkjet on package?

The ink just beads up and wipes off clean. There is no package, it's a deck box with 100 shrink wrapped cards in it. The online listing specifically said Inkjet Printable ID card but after submitting a refund request it's clear these vendors have no clue what inkjet printable means.

I may just get regular PVC NTAG215's (cheaper than these ones) and treat them with this stuff meant for playing cards: http://www.inkaid1.com/inkaid-coatings/inkaid-clear-semi-gloss-precoat

It's basically the same coating that photo paper has. I can brush it on the cards an then run it through the printer that way.

@AnalogMan

What I personally do is get a template created for the cards on PrinterStudio.com and have custom playing cards printed out. These are professionally done and extremely high quality; basically those top quality poker playing card materials you'll see in casinos...then I put the sticker NTAG215s in the circle where the Amiibo symbol is. Works great and I don't have to worry about printing anything myself.

  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @TwoSpikedHands just switch, all the knowledge you learned still applies and most of the code and assets should be the same anyway
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    and realistically they wouldn't

    be able to play it legally anyway since they need a ROM and they probably don't have the means to dump it themselves
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    why the shit does the shitbox randomly insert newlines in my messages
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It does that when I edit a post.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It inserts a newline in a random spot.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    never had that i don't think
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    do y'all think having an sd card that has a write speed of 700kb/s is a bad idea?
    trying to restore emunand rn but it's taking ages... (also when I finished the first time hekate decided to delete all my fucking files :wacko:)
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    @Karma177 that sd card is 100% faulty so yes, its a bad idea
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the slowest non-sdhc sd cards are a few MB/s
  • Karma177 @ Karma177:
    @The Real Jdbye it hasn't given me any error trying to write things on it so I don't really think it's faulty (pasted 40/50gb+ folders and no write errors)
  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    run h2testw on it

  • DinohScene @ DinohScene:
    when SD cards/microSD write speeds drop below a meg a sec, they're usually on the verge of dying

    Samsung SD format can sometimes fix them too
  • Purple_Heart @ Purple_Heart:
    yes looks like an faulty sd

    @Psionic Roshambo i may try that with my dead sd cards

    It's always worth a shot
