User Handbook - Using Amiibo

Use this guide when you want to load Amiibo into your games for use with the Eden emulator.

See here for an illustrated guide.

Android

TBD

Desktop

Pre-Requisites

The Eden Emulator fully set up and configured.
The Amiibo file you want to use.

NOTE: Eden only supports the .bin Amiibo format, NOT the .nfc format.

Steps

Launch Eden and launch the game you want to load Amiibo for.

TIP: You must be in-game before you can emulate scanning an Amiibo
Navigate to the Amiibo section of the game. The method for initiating the scanning varies from game to game, for Captain Toad's Treasure Tracker, you need to go to the press the + button when on the level select. You will need to look up how to do so with your specific game.
Upon activating the Amiibo scan functionality, you should get a Scan page. Eden is now looking for an Amiibo file to be loaded, which emulates scanning an Amiibo on actual hardware.
Navigate to File > Load/Remove Amiibo..., or press the hotkey to do the same (F2 on keyboard by default).
In the file explorer that opens, navigate to the amiibo file you want to use.

NOTE: It seems the scanning functionality is spotty and will sometimes throw a "The current game is not looking for Amiibos" message, even though it is. Usually you just need to try loading it again or restarting the scanning from the game. In some situations it was only resolved by restarting the game.
Upon loading a valid file, you will get a confirmation screen and your bonus content will be unlocked/functionality activated.
Repeat with any other Amiibo you want to use.
