| # Joining a MultiWorld Game | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| To join, set the following launch options: `-v6ap_name YourName -v6ap_ip ServerIP:Port`. | ||||
| Optionally, add `-v6ap_passwd "YourPassword"` if the room you are using requires a password. All parameters without quotation marks. | ||||
| The Name in this case is the one specified in your generated .yaml file. | ||||
| In case you are using the Archipelago Website, the IP should be `archipelago.gg`. | ||||
| To join an Archipelago MultiWorld game, you must set the game's launch options. The two mandatory launch options are:   | ||||
|   `-v6ap_name slotName`   | ||||
|   `-v6ap_ip server:port` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| If the game you are joining requires a password, you should also add the following to your launch options:   | ||||
| `-v6ap_passwd secretPassword` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| If the game is to be played offline in single-player mode, you should include this launch option:   | ||||
| `-v6ap_file filePath` | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Launch options may be found by right-clicking on the game in Steam and clicking "Properties" in the context menu. From there, open the "General" tab. There is a "Launch Options" setting near the bottom wherein you should enter the above options. Note that all launch options are separated by a space, and if there are spaces in your slot name or password, it should be surrounded with quotes. | ||||
| If everything worked out, you will see a textbox informing you the connection has been established after the story intro. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| # Playing offline | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| To play offline, first generate a seed on the game's settings page. | ||||
| Create a room and download the `.apv6` file, and start the game with the `-v6ap_file FileName` launch argument. | ||||
| Create a room and download the `.apv6` file, include the offline single-player launch option described above. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ## Installation Troubleshooting | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Start the game from the command line to view helpful messages regarding V6AP. These will look something like "V6AP: Message" | ||||

| 
 | ||||
| ### Game no longer starts after copying the .exe | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| Most likely you forgot to set the launch options. `-v6ap_name YourName` and `-v6ap_ip ServerIP:Port` are required for startup for Multiworlds, and | ||||
| `-v6ap_file FileName` is required for (offline) singleplayer. | ||||
| If your Name or Password have spaces in them, surround them in quotes. | ||||
| The most likely cause of a startup failure is invalid launch options. Ensure the launch options are set properly as described above in | ||||
| **Joining a MultiWorld Game**. | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ## Game Troubleshooting | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| ### What happens if I lose connection? | ||||
| 
 | ||||
| V6AP tries to reconnect a few times, so be patient. | ||||
| Should the problem still be there after about a minute or two, just save and restart the game. | ||||
| If a disconnection occurs, wait a moment to see if the game automatically reconnects itself. If the problem presists, save and restart the game. | ||||
