A TAS toolkit for the Nintendo Switch. Useable via hardware, homebrew and emulator.
This project aims to offer a easy to use yet powerful frontend to create Switch TASes. While there are existing projects that can replay input on a console using devices like Arduino, they often lack consistent frame advancement and game pausing capabilities.
In the spirit of TASBot, it is generally considered more prestigious to display the final product via unmodified console hardware. All of the aforementioned projects follow this approach. However, working with unmodified hardware poses various limitations when creating TAS. That's where this project comes in.
Having access to the entire system via CFW introduces a lot of freedoms, so this project intends to place this functionality into a standard PC application, much like Bizhawk or other TAS creators. This power allows you to tas with the freedom of an emulator through homebrew.
Note: This toolkit does not work on the most recent versions of Switch homebrew, go to alternatives like tas-script.
