Super Metroid MapRando Setup Guide

Required Software

• Archipelago
• A Super Metroid (JU) ROM
• BizHawk with the Archipelago Lua connector

Setting Up Archipelago

1. Click DOWNLOAD APWORLD from the Game Page.
2. Open sm_maprando.apworld. Archipelago should install the world to your client.

Generating and Connecting to Game

1. Create a .yaml file for Super Metroid MapRando in the Player Options page.
2. Create a game room. Drag and drop the MapRando .yaml with any other game's .yaml you wish to play with in the Drag and Drop box.
3. Click CREATE AND QUEUE.
4. When the game room is created, click the View your room link.
5. Download the patch file for your MapRando world. It will be an .apsmmr file.
6. Open it with Archipelago Launcher. It will automatically start BizHawk, the AP SNI window, and connect you to the server.
7. Verify connection in the Archipelago SNI window and play.

Recommended BizHawk Settings Setup

• Speed/Skip -> Skip(0)
• Rewind & Savestate Configuration -> Disabled (Requires loading ROM first to access)
• Preferred Cores -> SNES -> SubBSNESv115+

Notes

Game generation can take up to 3 minutes because it runs the MapRando generator locally on the server and then hands it off to the Archipelago item placement solver.
