# Setup Guide for Yu-Gi-Oh! Ultimate Masters: World Championship Tournament 2006 Archipelago
|
|
|
|
## Important
|
|
|
|
As we are using Bizhawk, this guide is only applicable to Windows and Linux systems.
|
|
|
|
## Required Software
|
|
|
|
- Bizhawk: [Bizhawk Releases from TASVideos](https://tasvideos.org/BizHawk/ReleaseHistory)
|
|
- Version 2.7.0 and later are supported.
|
|
- Detailed installation instructions for Bizhawk can be found at the above link.
|
|
- Windows users must run the prereq installer first, which can also be found at the above link.
|
|
- The built-in Archipelago client, which can be installed [here](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago/releases)
|
|
- A US or European Yu-Gi-Oh! Ultimate Masters: World Championship Tournament 2006 Rom
|
|
|
|
## Configuring Bizhawk
|
|
|
|
Once Bizhawk has been installed, open Bizhawk and change the following settings:
|
|
|
|
- Go to Config > Customize. Switch to the Advanced tab, then switch the Lua Core from "NLua+KopiLua" to
|
|
"Lua+LuaInterface". This is required for the Lua script to function correctly.
|
|
**NOTE: Even if "Lua+LuaInterface" is already selected, toggle between the two options and reselect it. Fresh installs**
|
|
**of newer versions of Bizhawk have a tendency to show "Lua+LuaInterface" as the default selected option but still load**
|
|
**"NLua+KopiLua" until this step is done.**
|
|
- Under Config > Customize > Advanced, make sure the box for AutoSaveRAM is checked, and click the 5s button.
|
|
This reduces the possibility of losing save data in emulator crashes.
|
|
- Under Config > Customize, check the "Run in background" and "Accept background input" boxes. This will allow you to
|
|
continue playing in the background, even if another window is selected, such as the Client.
|
|
- Under Config > Hotkeys, many hotkeys are listed, with many bound to common keys on the keyboard. You will likely want
|
|
to disable most of these, which you can do quickly using `Esc`.
|
|
|
|
It is strongly recommended to associate GBA rom extensions (\*.gba) to the Bizhawk we've just installed.
|
|
To do so, we simply have to search any GBA rom we happened to own, right click and select "Open with...", unfold
|
|
the list that appears and select the bottom option "Look for another application", then browse to the Bizhawk folder
|
|
and select EmuHawk.exe.
|
|
|
|
## 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?
|
|
|
|
You can customize your options by visiting the
|
|
[Yu-Gi-Oh! 2006 Player Options Page](/games/Yu-Gi-Oh!%202006/player-options)
|
|
|
|
## Joining a MultiWorld Game
|
|
|
|
### Obtain your GBA 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 `.apygo06` extension.
|
|
|
|
Double-click on your `.apygo06` file to start your client and start the ROM patch process. Once the process is finished
|
|
(this can take a while), the client and the emulator will be started automatically (if you associated the extension
|
|
to the emulator as recommended).
|
|
|
|
### Connect to the Multiserver
|
|
|
|
Once both the client and the emulator are started, you must connect them. Within the emulator click on the "Tools"
|
|
menu and select "Lua Console". Click the folder button or press Ctrl+O to open a Lua script.
|
|
|
|
Navigate to your Archipelago install folder and open `data/lua/connector_bizhawk_generic.lua`.
|
|
|
|
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 in the bottom textfield `/connect <address>:<port> [password]`)
|
|
|
|
Don't forget to start manipulating RNG early by shouting "Heart of the Cards!" during generation. |
