Beginner's Guide for Emulation

This guide will go through the process of setting up Ryujinx (why not yuzu?) on a Windows PC, for playing ACNH with mods.

This will require a reasonably powerful 64-bit Windows PC, a real Nintendo Switch, and a copy of Animal Crossing: New Horizons.


 * Follow this guide.
 * Your end goal is to have these files:
 * your console keys (prod.keys)
 * a copy of the latest Nintendo Switch firmware.
 * an XCI or NSP of Animal Crossing: New Horizons, alongside the latest update for the game in NSP format (for example, 1.6.0).
 * Once you get the game set up and you have the update installed, right click on ACNH and select Open Mods Directory.

 * Individual LayeredFS mods will go in named subfolders, and inside of it should be a romfs folder with the actual mod contents.


 * Now, to get started making your own mods, take a look at Dumping RomFS.
