## Important
As we are using Z5Client and Bizhawk, this guide is only applicable to Windows.

## Required Software
- [bizhawk+script+Z5Client](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Z5Client/releases) We recommend download Z5Client-setup as it makes some steps automatic.
- BizHawk and Z5Client from: [Z5Client Releases Page](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Z5Client/releases)

## Install Emulator and client
Download getBizhawk.ps1 from previous link. Place it on the folder where you want your emulator to be installed, right click on it and select "Run with PowerShell". This will download all the needed dependencies used by the emulator. This can take a while.
It is strongly recommended to associate N64 rom extension (\*.n64) to the Bizhawk we've just installed. To do so, we simple have to search any N64 rom we happened to own, right click and select "Open with...", we unfold the list that appears and select the bottom option "Look for another application", we browse to Bizhawk folder and select EmuHawk.exe

Place the ootMulti.lua file from the previous link inside the "lua" folder from the just installed emulator.

## Configuring your YAML file
### What is a YAML file and why do I need one?
Your YAML file contains a set of configuration options which provide the generator with information about how
it should generate your game. Each player of a multiworld will provide their own YAML file. This setup allows
each player to enjoy an experience customized for their taste, and different players in the same multiworld
can all have different options.

### Where do I get a YAML file?
A basic OOT yaml will look like this. There are lots of cosmetic options that have been removed for the sake of this tutorial, if you want to see a complete list, download [Archipelago](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago/releases) and look for the sample file in the "Players" folder.

### Obtain your OOT patch file
When you join a multiworld game, you will be asked to provide your YAML file to whoever is hosting. Once that
is done, the host will provide you with either a link to download your data file, or with a zip file containing
everyone's data files. Your data file should have a `.z5ap` extension.

Double click on your `.z5ap` file to start Z5Client and start the ROM patch process. Once the process is finished (this can take a while), the emulator will be started automatically (If we associated the extension to the emulator as recommended)

### Connect to multiserver
### Connect to the Multiserver
Once both the Z5Client and the emulator are started we must connect them. Within the emulator we click on the "Tools" menu and select "Lua console". In the new window click on the folder icon and look for the ootMulti.lua file. Once the file is loaded it will connect automatically to Z5Client.
Note: We strongly advise you don't open any emulator menu while it and Z5client are connected, as the script will halt and disconnects can happen. If you get disconnected just double click on the script again.

To connect the client to the multiserver simply put address:port on the textfield on top and press enter (if the server uses password, type on the bottom textfield /connect <address>:<port> [password], to connect)
