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.
