everything done correctly, i installed the Instant Attacks mod but it wasn't a folder in ultimate\mods it was directly in atmosphere but it was working The thing is i'm on 13.0.1, yuzu 1685 and Ascension doesn't work... the mods folder is in ultimate\mods and the plugins are in load\.........\smashlinehook.nro and nrohook, both latest version They are also both in the SDMC one since idk where to put them

it defintly can, i recommend clearing out the appdata yuzu folder, and letting the files in it generate again, you will need to backup your keys if you don't want to go through too much trouble but shouldn't be hard. afterwards redo this tutorial and it should work

When I try to start Smash Bros. with Ver13.0.1, the message "Starting..." is displayed and the game does not start. What should I do? Key and firmware is 16.0.3
you should clear out your Yuzu app data folder (make sure to save your keys) as it in most cases is a hint of other files interacting in a bad way with acropolis (for example leftovers of ultimate mod manager)
@@RYU_ICHI_aspS you want to keep the keys yes. in my recommended version guide, i think i also quickly show how i meant to clear out the yuzu folder, check the description and click on the timestamp for it

there are Videos out there explaining on how to do it with Software, I Personaly had no need for it yet, so I can't explain it in detail . but basically the folder and file names go from 0 to 7, which in game are the slots 1 to 8, the counting just starts of from 0 instead of 1
I'm not sure why but when I put in the smashline hook into the plugins the game gets stuck on the launching screen? Any idea what it could be or I should do?
@@diogoenriconolli9679 usally the acropolis folder not appearing is a result of one of many things, either, a mismatch between the smash and acropolis versions (make sure to be up to date on your Smash Update), Rest files from stuff like ultimate mod manager, missing dependencies, or using an emulator without Acropolis support, make sure your emulator does have acropolis support (incase you use an older version of yuzu or "offbrand yuzu") alternatively, give a try with ryujinx, the original guide is linked in the description as a game banana link, and it has a alternative version for the ryujinx emulator.
it in fact does (already tested) suyu is a project meant to replace yuzu when the dmca came around, you are free to do the same steps in suyu as in this tutorial, it's pretty much the same
is your Smash actually up to date? double check please. as I already had a case where he thought it was the newest, but it wasn't. and also, try an older acropolis version, as there could be problem with the newest
instead of just extracting it, open it to find out what kind of data structure it is, if there are dependencies included, then it is one where you need to seperate dependencies and mods. if it has something like UI or similar in there as folders, then it already is the mods and need to be extracted into the mods folder
did everything as told and arc worked too but whenever it comes to adding mods nothing shows up, even tho my mods folder has multiple of them, there is 0 mods shlwing up in-game
Okay then don't worry for now, I'm actually currently working on an updated guide that will go even more in depth, for SUYU, as Yuzu with the lawsuits and stuff of course is far from the best option nowadays, I will try to remind you when the video is up.
@@Timerin To be honest the issue i have is an issue most people don't get an answer for all files downloaded properly, everything functional, yet mods just don't load
@@tropluckyfr2077 I still hear that it works for alot of people, even a comment just yesterday, so it's probably one step gone wrong, either because of a problem with the emulator, the acropolis version etc, that's why I mean I will make a updated video more in depth to hopefully prevent thoose problems in the future.
the update is supposed to be a different file? you just need to patch it onto it?... Incase it's your first time updating a game: File -> Install Files to NAND -> Choose the Update File Afterwards the update should be shown as an Add-On on the game.
for some reason, it said that Arcropolis cannot currently run on a Smash version other than 13.0.2 I'm on 13.01 but I don't have a Nintendo switch and ur pinned comment said the up to date is 13.0.1.
- Is your Yuzu up to date? (it can even say upto date, without it being. needs to be atleast version 1560 or higher) - Is your Smash up to date? - does smash run without Arc? - Does it work after clearing your cache?
@@Timerin thanks! i have to unchek an update of the game, well i´m not sure wtf is that haha but finally the folder appear. Anyway, thanks for your quick response. :D
smashline is a mod dependencie and only needed if a mod says so itself, if mentioned you directly should have a link on the gamebanana page of the mod itself, some mods use different smashline version that's why that's important

I'm sorry to disappoint you, but till this day I didn't make a switch mod myself, but things I could recommend checking out is: can you compress the file more? did it get converted correctly? is it in the correct place with the correct name?
Hello, thanks for your very useful tuto! After doing all this, everything works perfectly besides a little bug, the sword effect of Mythra disappeared with Arc activated in yuzu (hence the mods on) but once I deactive it, everything is back to normal (without mods). Would you have an idea how to fix this bug? I also tried to reinstall arc with an older version but still having this problem. Thanks!
@@Timerin Hey there thanks for your kind answer! I could pinpoint the problem. I did clear my shaders in yuzu and it didn't solved the problem. Though, I deleted a skin that I installed for Aegis and it was the cause of it. Since the skin is basically changing the whole character to replace with another set of character, it broke the shaders of the sword of Mythra since the sword is not the same for that skin. Thank you for your help, and I hope this comment will help someone in any way!
@@Wenomars do a "fresh install" like shown at the beginning of the recommended tutorial. basically deleting the stuff inside of the yuzu folder besides of the keys and config folder
It just doesn't seem to work. The acropolis folder is made and the game boots as normal, just without mods. I've tried 50 different methods and no matter what I can't seem to make mods work on smash ultimate yuzu. I just want jojo characters in the game :(
@@MoisesDavidRojasMillan the tutorial is pretty much interchangeable with any emulator that supports ARCropolis, after the yuzu lawsuit there have been alot of emulators made to replace yuzu with, a popular one would be suyu currently, uzuy sounds like one of thoose too, I recommend trying the recommended method video instead though.
@Timerin In that case, I would have to see, since I have an error that I followed all the steps to the letter but when loading the smash it stays loading forever for some reason, and I have no idea why, I have version 13.0. 2 (if I put 13.0.3 the smash crashes) with its dlc and the uzuy I have downloaded it updated
@@TimerinAfter trying yours, it didn't work either, it stayed the same in the infinite load, and following the steps exactly, from what I see the skyline is no longer compatible with Acropolis, because it supposedly causes crashes, maybe it has something to do with it but I'm not sure
@@MoisesDavidRojasMillan I didn't know of that change as I stopped smash modding almost over a year ago already, It seems like the original guide from miguel for some reason got put on private. I'm not an expert here, and just used my experience to help others fix their problems, I guess the best you can do is try to downgrade your game and acropolis to try running an older version where skyline still is compatible I'm sorry that I can't provide more guidance than that, as the last time I tried modding (for a video) was around 3-4 months ago, but i just never found time to edit it thanks to University. Last time I tried was using 13.0.2 v.4.0.2 of Acropolis that got released on Aug 15, 2023. And still the same Skyline beta release that is currently there. If you can't get it to work with that, then I'm afraid I don't know how to help you further.
Nice tutorial, but i have a problem.. I installed Arcropolis and skyline.. I even can see Arcropolis now on the properties of the game. I can launch it, but I am missing the arcropolis folder that should generate automatically.. Whats the issue?
@@Timerin I checked the sdmc folder, inside atmosphere, then game folder of smash bros.. there is a html, opened it, and i saw the message that i need the newest version of smash bros to work with arc :) I am at 13.0.0 now and need 13.0.1 Now i know what to do ;) Updating
make sure that the folder is correct and extracted, it should look something like this: yuzu > sdmc > ultimate > mods > NameOfMod > fighter > Mario > Model > body > and in there should be folders like: c01-c07 ! Also make sure none of the mods you use use the same slot as it can make it bug out
@@TimerinI've already double check the folder, when i installed the snow mario it just doesnt change the skin same goes to peach when i installed the tanooki skin that doesnt change either- idk whats happening to be honest
the exact same way other mods work, make sure that if there are any shown dependencies to download them too, put them in your mods folder, making sure it is like the link moveset mod in this video. and you are done

one way would be having a modded switch, and getting your update files legit. when it Comes to how to get it from the "grey area sites" I sadly cannot tell you as I do not condone it.
Not working for me... There is no crashes and no bugs but just my mods doesn't works.(My game is a NSP file maybe it doesn't works without a XCI, i don't know.) If someone knows how to fix that please help me!
take a look at your dependencies and mods. most of the time you won't get past the launching screen as not all mods will work on yuzu, but most do, drag them out and check one by one which one works and which one doesn't
Anyone know if my mods still need to be in either exefs or romfs folders to work? Used this method but no dice so far :/ wish smash was moddable the regular yuzu way my Mario kart and Mario party drag and drop mods work great once I did the romfs or exefs tricks Plus this way doesn’t let me toggle things on/off :(
Also any clue where this “web applet” in the debug menu of Yuzu is located? the directions on that game banana site say that’s like the last thing to do but I can’t find it :/ wondering if that’s affecting me not seeing the mods.
depends on how you got those, but let's just say, sites provide update data, and you can install that update via file -> Install files to NAND and then search and select the update files

you should clear out your Yuzu app data folder (make sure to save your keys) as it in most cases is a hint of other files interacting in a bad way with acropolis (for example leftovers of ultimate mod manager)
@@Timerin Should I leave the key, delete the Yuzu folder, create a new Yuzu folder, and install Yuzu? Or do you want to remove updates and DLC?
@@RYU_ICHI_aspS you want to keep the keys yes. in my recommended version guide, i think i also quickly show how i meant to clear out the yuzu folder, check the description and click on the timestamp for it
@@RYU_ICHI_aspS under clean install yuzu
@@Timerin OK I newly installed Yuzu for Smash Bros. and inserted the key. Should I install the mod after updating Smash Bros. and installing all the DLC?
Hello, thanks you for your video it help me a lot, but i don’t understand how to choose which slot the skin will take, someone can explain me ?
there are Videos out there explaining on how to do it with Software, I Personaly had no need for it yet, so I can't explain it in detail . but basically the folder and file names go from 0 to 7, which in game are the slots 1 to 8, the counting just starts of from 0 instead of 1
@@Timerin Yes i already understand that, so you have to rename the files with the number you want for choose the slot of the skin ?
@@Josh-sk2rz the files and folders where that same number was included before too yes
This is amazing!!!
I'm not sure why but when I put in the smashline hook into the plugins the game gets stuck on the launching screen? Any idea what it could be or I should do?
sounds like your game not being up to date
5:19 this acropolis in ultimate doesn't appear
@@diogoenriconolli9679 please take a read at the pinned comment, and preferably follow the recommended guide, if both doesn't help, then comment again
@@Timerin That's what i done, but nothing changed
@@diogoenriconolli9679 usally the acropolis folder not appearing is a result of one of many things, either, a mismatch between the smash and acropolis versions (make sure to be up to date on your Smash Update), Rest files from stuff like ultimate mod manager, missing dependencies, or using an emulator without Acropolis support, make sure your emulator does have acropolis support (incase you use an older version of yuzu or "offbrand yuzu")
alternatively, give a try with ryujinx, the original guide is linked in the description as a game banana link, and it has a alternative version for the ryujinx emulator.
Hello, thanks a lot! Do you think it could actually work with Suyu ?
it in fact does (already tested) suyu is a project meant to replace yuzu when the dmca came around, you are free to do the same steps in suyu as in this tutorial, it's pretty much the same
@@Timerin It did for me, too! I managed to add a few mods and even avoid a conflict between two of them by switching a file from one to another :-)
I followed your steps but did not generate the ARCopolis folder. What should I do
check pinned comment and go over each step, if none of it made it work, just react to this comment again
I need help! My Yuzu is up to date, my files are new, my smash is up to date. But the arcropolis folder does not appear!!!
is your Smash actually up to date? double check please. as I already had a case where he thought it was the newest, but it wasn't.
and also, try an older acropolis version, as there could be problem with the newest
Thank you so much bro!!
I'm trying to download the Training Mod but I'm unsure what to do. I got Arcopolis and everything working but have no idea where to extract the .zip.
instead of just extracting it, open it to find out what kind of data structure it is, if there are dependencies included, then it is one where you need to seperate dependencies and mods.
if it has something like UI or similar in there as folders, then it already is the mods and need to be extracted into the mods folder
did everything as told and arc worked too but whenever it comes to adding mods
nothing shows up, even tho my mods folder has multiple of them, there is 0 mods shlwing up in-game
try the recommended tutorial instead, sometimes the alternate method provides problems.
@@Timerin i used both methods, that's the problem
Okay then don't worry for now, I'm actually currently working on an updated guide that will go even more in depth, for SUYU, as Yuzu with the lawsuits and stuff of course is far from the best option nowadays, I will try to remind you when the video is up.
@@Timerin To be honest the issue i have is an issue most people don't get an answer for
all files downloaded properly, everything functional, yet mods just don't load
@@tropluckyfr2077 I still hear that it works for alot of people, even a comment just yesterday, so it's probably one step gone wrong, either because of a problem with the emulator, the acropolis version etc, that's why I mean I will make a updated video more in depth to hopefully prevent thoose problems in the future.
acropolis doesn't show up, checked all of the steps in pinned (do not know how to clear yuzu folder tho)
it's shown in the recommended guide
so ARCopolis wont work with patches before 13.0.2 but that update comes in a different file.. do you know how to fix this
the update is supposed to be a different file? you just need to patch it onto it?...
Incase it's your first time updating a game:
File -> Install Files to NAND -> Choose the Update File
Afterwards the update should be shown as an Add-On on the game.
@@Timerin ooh k thanks
for some reason, it said that Arcropolis cannot currently run on a Smash version other than 13.0.2 I'm on 13.01 but I don't have a Nintendo switch and ur pinned comment said the up to date is 13.0.1.
I forgot to update the number on the alternative video, on the recommended one you see I already changed it to 13.0.2
@@Timerin found a file online and has a 13.0.2 update on it it works thanks.👍
is there a fix for using mods when playing online local wireless? because when i try to open local wireless it just kicks me out immediately
that is because you need to use the HDR multiplayer fix, it is also in the yuzu guide I used and have linked below
alternatively, if you play with friends, just use parsec
hey bro, i need help :c
i run the game as you said but the folder "Arcropolis" does not appear :c
- Is your Yuzu up to date? (it can even say upto date, without it being. needs to be atleast version 1560 or higher)
- Is your Smash up to date?
- does smash run without Arc?
- Does it work after clearing your cache?
@@Timerin thanks! i have to unchek an update of the game, well i´m not sure wtf is that haha but finally the folder appear. Anyway, thanks for your quick response. :D
Don't wonder, if a commend is unanswered, that person already reached out on discord to me
I have a problem, the arcropolis folder doesnt appear :(
check all the steps in the pinned comment
Thank you, my son is very happy.
I have a problem with the smashline 2 it dont show up like on your video idk how to download it
smashline is a mod dependencie and only needed if a mod says so itself, if mentioned you directly should have a link on the gamebanana page of the mod itself, some mods use different smashline version that's why that's important
@@Timerin thx also i have one last question I see that we can add character like silver do you know how to do that also for the boss character like Master hand
@@sans3497 find the mod on gamebanana, install the dependencies like shown in the video, and drag the mod into the mod folder, I recommend using the recommended method guide, instead of the alternative method that you used.
Do you think this tutorial will work on steam deck (linux).? Yuzu recently added support for mods (skins) throught skyline and acropolis for linux.
I can't tell for sure, but worst case you will need to reinstall yuzu afterwards, so it's worth a try
Hello, I have a question, I want to make my own Smash Bros Ultimate sound mod, but I have the problem that my nus3audio file is too big. Can you give me tips??
I'm sorry to disappoint you, but till this day I didn't make a switch mod myself, but things I could recommend checking out is: can you compress the file more? did it get converted correctly? is it in the correct place with the correct name?
will this work for yuzu early access models?
as long as it is up to date it should work without a problem
What's in "Drawing and more" 👀
funnily enough, mostly refferences
Hello, thanks for your very useful tuto!
After doing all this, everything works perfectly besides a little bug, the sword effect of Mythra disappeared with Arc activated in yuzu (hence the mods on) but once I deactive it, everything is back to normal (without mods). Would you have an idea how to fix this bug? I also tried to reinstall arc with an older version but still having this problem. Thanks!
as i can't seem to recreate the problem, i sadly cannot tell you how to fix it.
maybe try to clear your shaders in yuzu, so they need to regenerate
@@Timerin Hey there thanks for your kind answer!
I could pinpoint the problem. I did clear my shaders in yuzu and it didn't solved the problem.
Though, I deleted a skin that I installed for Aegis and it was the cause of it. Since the skin is basically changing the whole character to replace with another set of character, it broke the shaders of the sword of Mythra since the sword is not the same for that skin.
Thank you for your help, and I hope this comment will help someone in any way!
For some reason my game doesnt load up at 4:46
either happens if you don't have the newest smash version. or installed something like ultimate mod manager before.
@@Timerin yeah i installed mod manager before and deleted it. How do i fix it?
@@Wenomars do a "fresh install" like shown at the beginning of the recommended tutorial.
basically deleting the stuff inside of the yuzu folder besides of the keys and config folder

@@ClamShel what did you do
@@EVeeFrmdaHrlem had to update the game :/
It just doesn't seem to work. The acropolis folder is made and the game boots as normal, just without mods. I've tried 50 different methods and no matter what I can't seem to make mods work on smash ultimate yuzu. I just want jojo characters in the game :(
wait, so if your mod folder is empty, but activated, smash still boots normal?
This work only for yuzu ? Or other emulators like uzuy works too ?
@@MoisesDavidRojasMillan the tutorial is pretty much interchangeable with any emulator that supports ARCropolis, after the yuzu lawsuit there have been alot of emulators made to replace yuzu with, a popular one would be suyu currently, uzuy sounds like one of thoose too, I recommend trying the recommended method video instead though.
@Timerin In that case, I would have to see, since I have an error that I followed all the steps to the letter but when loading the smash it stays loading forever for some reason, and I have no idea why, I have version 13.0. 2 (if I put 13.0.3 the smash crashes) with its dlc and the uzuy I have downloaded it updated
@MoisesDavidRojasMillan then try doing it with the suyu emulator
@@TimerinAfter trying yours, it didn't work either, it stayed the same in the infinite load, and following the steps exactly, from what I see the skyline is no longer compatible with Acropolis, because it supposedly causes crashes, maybe it has something to do with it but I'm not sure
@@MoisesDavidRojasMillan I didn't know of that change as I stopped smash modding almost over a year ago already, It seems like the original guide from miguel for some reason got put on private. I'm not an expert here, and just used my experience to help others fix their problems, I guess the best you can do is try to downgrade your game and acropolis to try running an older version where skyline still is compatible
I'm sorry that I can't provide more guidance than that, as the last time I tried modding (for a video) was around 3-4 months ago, but i just never found time to edit it thanks to University.
Last time I tried was using 13.0.2
v.4.0.2 of Acropolis that got released on Aug 15, 2023.
And still the same Skyline beta release that is currently there.
If you can't get it to work with that, then I'm afraid I don't know how to help you further.
Nice tutorial, but i have a problem.. I installed Arcropolis and skyline.. I even can see Arcropolis now on the properties of the game. I can launch it, but I am missing the arcropolis folder that should generate automatically.. Whats the issue?
I just recommend you checking out the recommend guide, if it doesn't work either, just leave a comment there too and we can trouble shoot together
@@Timerin I checked the sdmc folder, inside atmosphere, then game folder of smash bros.. there is a html, opened it, and i saw the message that i need the newest version of smash bros to work with arc :) I am at 13.0.0 now and need 13.0.1

Where did you get the legacy discovery file?
it is in my description
@@Timerin oh ok thank you
mods doesnt change mario skins but mario 64 skin works for some reason
make sure that the folder is correct and extracted, it should look something like this: yuzu > sdmc > ultimate > mods > NameOfMod > fighter > Mario > Model > body > and in there should be folders like: c01-c07 ! Also make sure none of the mods you use use the same slot as it can make it bug out
