Amiibo Rewards?

[Sai]

Anyone know if there's any possibility of the Amiibo card rewards being in the PC version? Really want the Magnamalo layered armor because I have it on the Switch, shame it isn't here. I'm sure eventually a modder will figure out how to add it (if any modder sees this; let me know the feasibility of that lol)

I think the answer will disappoint you, to make you feel better my Magnamalo amiibo is eating dusts as well.

[Sai]

I just pray a Modder makes some magic happen & we get it or something, or capcom somehow adds it out of nowhere lol

Not sure why people ask whether a console hardware specific thing would be available for pc...

[Sai]

Because asset ripping is a thing?

I assume you've not heard of the Steam version of Sonic Lost World getting a mod that adds in the Switch exclusive Yoshi's Island DLC then? It's been released for quite some time now.

People porting Console exclusive content into PC games via modding isn't really even anything all that new. Even modding aside, sometimes if a community voices enough of a desire for it, console exclusive content can get official releases on PC, either through free updates or paid DLC.

Someone had to, for months, make the Aloy armor from World and IB from scratch, because it was easier than porting it from console to PC.

That kind of thing can sometimes be the case, yeah, but it's also not unheard of for the landscape for any particular game to change over time regarding modding and fan ports, as breakthroughs can be made that increase what is possible and new tools developed to simplify the process.

Granted, this is also never guaranteed to happen.

I am not saying the amiibo armor exists in the PC game files but...... you know. Find a good modder and you'll get what you want.

I am not a modder so don't even bother asking me cause I can't help you beyond knowing the files exist.

For a small bit of proof, this is definitely not on switch as I don't own a switch: https://i.imgur.com/jVjm5ri.png

I appreciate the information. That confirms exactly what I want potentially becoming a thing in the future.

But that's a mod, not official content released by Capcom. Your comparison to the Yoshi DLC "MOD" is not an official thing Nintendo agreed with. In fact, I'm 100% sure Nintendo would oppose having that DLC on the PC, they just can't really do anything about it because it's a free mod.

No problem! Sorry I can't help you beyond that.
The only reason I have this is because a friend made this for me as a test and I am not sharing it without his permission(and it's not perfect yet either, it just replaces the guild cross layered armor right now as a model swap) and the male version does not work yet at all.

Mostly just confirming it does indeed exist in the files.

Then I expect it'll some day be added with enough outcry, or modders will just eventually do it themselves. Thanks again.

[Codester]

You know you can just make it as a layered armor right? Don't need the Amiibo stuff.

No problem! A mod can definitely be made so just have to wait till it appears :).

Magnamalo layered armor and the Amiibo armor are seperate armors though.
Unless I am not familiar with the Amiibo style magnamalo armor being available ingame already?

Shows the clear difference.

Not saying anything I didn't already know here.
