## Create a Config (.yaml) File
|
||||
|
||||
### What is a config file and why do I need one?
|
||||
Your config 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 config 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.
|
||||
See the guide on setting up a basic YAML at the Archipelago setup guide: [click here](/tutorial/archipelago/setup/en)
|
||||
|
||||
### Where do I get a config file?
|
||||
The [Player Settings](/games/Secret%20of%20Evermore/player-settings) page on the website allows you to configure your
|
||||
personal settings and export a config file from them.

|
||||
|
||||
### Verifying your config file
|
||||
If you would like to validate your config file to make sure it works, you may do so on the
|
||||
[YAML Validator](/mysterycheck) page.

## Joining a MultiWorld Game

|
||||
is done, the host will provide you with either a link to download your patch file, or with a zip file containing
|
||||
everyone's patch files. Your patch file should have a `.apsoe` extension.
