There are a limited number of mods in a limited number of games that are safe to use, usually visual mods don't bring a ban so this is interesting. Would you mind listing specifically what you were using so others can avoid it in the future?
You only need one copy, physical (or digital if your hacked switch is linked to your main Nintendo account). I think what you're missing is that it's completely fine to go online on a hacked switch (even in CFW) as long as the NAND you boot into doesn't have a dirty history like from pirating...
There is a way around this! Your hacked switch sysNAND will need to be completely clean of anything bannable like pirated games and be linked to your Nintendo account with active NSO, need a legal copy of ACNH as well obviously.
1) Load offline CFW, open game, create a new ACNH save on your...
For Splatoon 2 it's generally considered safe to edit your save (Splathex is no longer updated but you can do it manually), going online with CFW with visual mods is semi-safe but using CFW to hack during a match can result in a ban if you're reported which you likely will be. Splatoon 3 is a...
I don't think it's too complicated to understand. I technically have the money to buy a game, but if I can play the game for free I would rather save that money and use it on something necessary that I have to pay for, like food. Also personally I prefer to play single player games on emulator...
No problem, I'm so happy I can share as there was no info on this anywhere when I was looking into it last year and it's good to know it's helpful beyond satiating my own curiosity. Wish there was a proper solution on the user end that made things editable but the only options are on the program...
Animations for Switch models don't work properly in Blender because the way Blender does bones is different (worse) from other programs, and unfortunately there's no way to get a clean conversion other than importing the model and animation into 3DSMax and then exporting out after resetting the...
"Can't" be banned isn't really accurate as it's not a technical impossibility as they know you've tinkered with your console. A better way to judge the situation and decide on what to do is consider
1) Have there been any reported bans for the exact action I did/plan to do?
2) Is this mod/tool...
I'm a bit confused by your second comment's explanation, but if you don't have any pirated software on your sysNAND you're not going to be banned for going online with it unless you cheat in certain games. People say that nothing is ever safe and while that's true as a general rule, it's been a...
I believe it's game dependent. I've never seen a ban for Animal Crossing New Horizons modded saves cloud or not and map/RAM editing is incredibly common with it, I believe Pokemon is also okay depending on what you were doing. Like obtaining unreleased Pokemon and then cloud saving would be a...
You're not able to run both sysNAND and emuNAND online on the same Switch though, right? In that case it doesn't really matter which you pick if you're running CFW online anyway, the ban risk comes from online CFW rather than which partition you're running it from. To me it makes more sense to...
This is also what I do, one SD card from before I hacked it that has all of my screenshots and games that I don't use CFW on and one SD card that has CFW, and whenever I'm done what I'm working on (dumping Splat3 data, ACNH hacking etc.) I immediately swap back to my normal one. Pretty much...
There are a lot of things tied to framerate in ACNH because it was programmed assuming a framerate cap of 30, unfortunately 60FPS will always cause things to look and function wonky. Many actions are tied to animation speed, so if you want to landscape faster for example you use animation speed...
You can for certain cheats with certain games. Animal Crossing, Pokemon LA, BDSP, SWSH, and SV (I'm sure there are more games but those are ones I have experience with) don't ban for RAM editing cheats as long as it doesn't harm another player like using them in battle. That's how ACNH and...
Ah, yes, portrait mode, surely the best way to film a row of people. If only there were some way to fit a wider shot, at the expense of height... if only...
