How did I got started with SMO Modding
- hacked/modded switch
- own legal copy of Super Mario Odyssey (game cart or eshop)
- PC with windows 7 or 8 or 10
- ability to figure/find infos on gbatemp or google.
basically, I have past experiences with nintendo console modding and game modding.
I started with putting atmosphere cfw on my switch and watch bunch of youtube videos.
I am going to make this quick and short and more focus on starting on modding the Super Mario Odyssey game.
