Hi everyone!

I decided to release the ACNH inventory cheat generator (ACNHICG) script I made for myself so everyone can use it. :) It allows you to switch between pre-configured full inventories in-game by generating cheat codes for entire custom inventories. Here's how it works:
  1. Download and install the latest version of Python 3 (3.6.0 or newer) (make sure you enable the Add to PATH option and the Install py launcher option if possible/available)
  2. Open it with a text editor, e.g. Notepad++
  3. Download the attached release of the ACNHICG and extract it
  4. Download a copy of the item ID list from the OP of this post (or just use the one provided in the download)
  5. Open the items.txt included in the release, check out the format of items in the inventory you want
  6. Simply put, you just copy the full line of the item you want from the item ID datamine (use Ctrl + F (Cmd + F on Mac) to search) to your items.txt, and append the amount preceded by a space and an x, just check out the examples and it should be clear
  7. Note: Currently, item modifiers other than amount are not supported, but you can still try to make it work if you know what you're doing
  8. Note: You can make groups of inventory cheats by separating them with an empty line (inventory cheats with more than 40 items are split in parts for you automatically)
  9. Note: There has to be an empty line at the end of the file, and commas in item names MUST be replaced by an underscore
  10. When you're done editing items.txt, save and then double-click the inventory-cheat-gen script
  11. Give each of your inventory cheats a name
  12. Done! Copy the generated file to your Switch's SD card (the path is /atmosphere/contents/01006F8002326000/cheats/)
Warning: Avoid enabling multiple inventory cheats at the same time as they are not compatible with each other!

Other than that, have fun! Let me know if it works and feel free to ask questions. :)

Note that this is intended to be just a PoC and temporary solution until a more sophisticated solution is available. I just got tired of doing all this manually, so I just went ahead and automated the boring stuff!

Changelog

v1.0.1 (April 04 2020)
- Whoops! Updated to ACNH v1.1.4 ^^'

    @Jayro, I don't see whats so special about the DS ML, its just a DS lite in a phat shell. At least the phat model had louder speakers, whereas the lite has a much better screen.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    They probably said "Hey, why not we combine the two together and make a 'new' DS to sell".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's a DS Lite in a slightly bigger DS Lite shell.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not a Nintendo / iQue official product, it's a 3rd party custom.

  • Veho @ Veho:
    Nothing special about it other than it's more comfortable than the Lite
    for people with beefy hands.

    @SylverReZ if you could find a v5 DS ML you would have the best of both worlds since the v5 units had the same backlight brightness levels as the DS Lite unlockable with flashme
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that's a long shot
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think only the red mario kart edition phat was v5
  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    A woman with no arms and no legs was sitting on a beach. A man comes along and the woman says, "I've never been hugged before." So the man feels bad and hugs her. She says "Well i've also never been kissed before." So he gives her a kiss on the cheek. She says "Well I've also never been fucked before." So the man picks her up, and throws her in the ocean and says "Now you're fucked."

    lmao
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    anyways, we need to re-normalize physical media

    if i didn't want my games to be permanent, then i'd rent them

  • BigOnYa @ BigOnYa:
    Agreed, that why I try to buy all my games on disc, Xbox anyways. Switch games (which I pirate tbh) don't matter much, I stay offline 24/7 anyways.
  • AncientBoi @ AncientBoi:
    I don't pirate them, I Use Them :mellow:. Like I do @BigOnYa 's couch :tpi::evil::rofl2:

    @BakerMan - you can still "own" digital media, arguably easier and better than physical since you can make copies and backups, as much as you like.

    The issue is DRM
  • cearp @ cearp:
    You can buy drm free games / music / ebooks, and if you keep backups of your data (like documents and family photos etc), then you shouldn't lose the game. but with a disk, your toddler could put it in the toaster and there goes your $60

    :rofl2:
  • cearp @ cearp:
    still, I agree physical media is nice to have. just pointing out the issue is drm
  • rqkaiju2 @ rqkaiju2:
    i like physical media because it actually feels like you own it. thats why i plan on burning music to cds
  • cearp @ cearp:
    It's nice to not have to have a lot of physical things though, saves space
