VVVVVV MultiWorld Setup Guide
Required Software
- VVVVVV (Bought from the Steam Store or GOG Store Page, NOT Make and Play Edition!)
- V6AP
Installation and Game Start Procedures
- Install VVVVVV through either Steam or GOG
- Go to the page linked for V6AP, and download the latest release
- Unpack the zip file where you have VVVVVV installed.
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.
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.
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.
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.
