{{#seo: |title=Switch Homebrew PC Tools (PC Utilities) - GameBrew |title_mode=append |image=NXBTSwitch.png |image_alt=NXBT }} NXBT is a utility written in Python that lets you control your Nintendo Switch via a web browser, terminal, or custom macros. == Features == * Use your favourite web browser to control a Nintendo Switch with any keyboard or gamepad. * Use your terminal to control a Nintendo Switch with a keyboard. * Use a macro from your terminal, browser, or Python script * Use the NXBT Python API to write programs to control your Nintendo Switch. * Primitive loop support in macros. * In-depth command line interface. * Support for emulating multiple controllers at once. * Support for fast connection or reconnection to a Nintendo Switch. * Emulated ontrollers support thread-safe access. == Installation == Linux: <code>sudo pip3 install nxbt</code> (Note: NXBT needs root privileges to toggle the BlueZ Input plugin. If you're not comfortable running this program as root, you can disable the Input plugin manually, and install NXBT as a regular user.) Windows and macOS: See the installation guide [https://github.com/Brikwerk/nxbt/blob/master/docs/Windows-and-macOS-Installation.md here.] ==Media== '''How I Play Nintendo Switch 2 Without Having the Console''' ([https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0OW_0BuXs4 Sir Spudly]) <br> <youtube width=""640"">r0OW_0BuXs4</youtube> == Known issues == * Switching from the slow frequency mode on the "Change Grip/Order" menu to the full input report frequency is still a bit of a frail process. Some game start menus have a frequency of 15Hz but specifically only allow exiting by pressing the A button. The "Change Grip/Order" menu allows for exiting with A, B, or the Home button, however. * The webapp can sometimes have small amounts of input lag (<8ms). ==Changelog== '''v0.1.4''' *Additions and Changes **SwitchOS v12 and v13 compatibility. **A new, more efficient communication strategy. **Added a remote_tui option to the CLI for explicit use over remote connections. **Added a test option to the CLI for better debugging support. **Overriding the bluetooth service is done in a much cleaner way (#19). **Added support for Windows and MacOS with Vagrant-configured Virtual Machines. See the Installation section in the README for more details. **Added a --usessl argument for use with the web app. A secure context (SSL) will be required for gamepad use in the web app due to upcoming browser changes. Please Note: the SSL certificates generated in this mode are completely insecure and are not meant for any kind of production or non-local use. Your browser will warn you as such, if you choose to use them. **Added input sampling method selection to the web app. Depending on which browser you use, some of the selections will be more responsive than others. **Added Controller Restart functionality to the web app. *Bugfixes **Fixed a bug preventing proper reconnection after an active connection was killed. **Fixed a bug where resources wouldn't be freed after a controller was shutdown from within the web app. **Fixed crashes in certain scenarios when reconnecting. '''v0.1.3''' *The frequency for the direct TUI input loop has been increased from 30Hz to 120Hz. This matches the input frequency of the controller and should promote more responsive input. *An issue with Socket.IO protocol incompatibility which resulted in dropped webapp connections has been resolved ([https://github.com/Brikwerk/nxbt/issues/6 #6]). *Critical dependency versions have been pinned '''v0.1.2''' * Fixed an issue with webapp static resources not being included when packaging NXBT for the Python Package Index. '''v0.1.1''' * Added CLI options to set the IP and port of the webapp. * Set default IP and port options to allow for access on the local network (IP: 0.0.0.0, Port: 8000). '''v0.1''' * First Release. == Credits == A big thank you goes out to all the contributors at the [https://github.com/dekuNukem/Nintendo_Switch_Reverse_Engineering dekuNukem/Nintendo_Switch_Reverse_Engineering] repository! Almost all information pertaining to the innerworkings of the Nintendo Switch Controllers comes from the documentation in that repo. Without it, NXBT wouldn't have been possible. == External links == * GitHub - https://github.com/Brikwerk/nxbt * GBAtemp - https://gbatemp.net/threads/how-to-install-and-use-nxbt-switch-1-and-switch-2-supported.676535/
