# Choo-Choo Charles MultiWorld Setup Guide
|
|
This page is a simplified guide of the [Choo-Choo Charles Multiworld Randomizer Mod page](https://github.com/lgbarrere/CCCharles-Random?tab=readme-ov-file#cccharles-random).
|
|
|
|
## Requirements and Required Softwares
|
|
* A computer running Windows (the Mod is not handled by Linux or Mac)
|
|
* [Archipelago](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago/releases)
|
|
* A legal copy of the Choo-Choo Charles original game (can be found on [Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1766740/ChooChoo_Charles/))
|
|
|
|
## Mod Installation for playing
|
|
### Mod Download
|
|
All the required files of the Mod can be found in the [Releases](https://github.com/lgbarrere/CCCharles-Random/releases).
|
|
To use the Mod, download and unzip **CCCharles_Random.zip** somewhere safe, then follow the instructions in the next sections of this guide. This archive contains:
|
|
* The **Obscure/** folder loading the Mod itself, it runs the code handling all the randomized elements
|
|
* The **cccharles.apworld** file containing the randomization logic, used by the host to generate a random seed with the others games
|
|
|
|
### Game Setup
|
|
The Mod can be installed and played by following these steps (see the [Mod Download](setup_en#mod-download) section to get **CCCharles_Random.zip**):
|
|
1. Copy the **Obscure/** folder from **CCCharles_Random.zip** to **\<GameFolder\>** (where the **Obscure/** folder and **Obscure.exe** are placed)
|
|
2. Launch the game, if "OFFLINE" is visible in the upper-right corner of the screen, the Mod is working
|
|
|
|
### Create a Config (.yaml) File
|
|
The purpose of a YAML file is described in the [Basic Multiworld Setup Guide](/tutorial/Archipelago/setup/en#generating-a-game).
|
|
|
|
The [Player Options page](/games/Choo-Choo%20Charles/player-options) allows to configure personal options and export a config YAML file.
|
|
|
|
## Joining a MultiWorld Game
|
|
Before playing, it is highly recommended to check out the **[Known Issues](setup_en#known-issues)** section
|
|
* The game console must be opened to type Archipelago commands, press "F10" key or "`" (or "~") key in querty ("²" key in azerty)
|
|
* Type ``/connect <IP> <PlayerName>`` with \<IP\> and \<PlayerName\> found on the hosting Archipelago web page in the form ``archipelago.gg:XXXXX`` and ``CCCharles``
|
|
* Disconnection is automatic at game closure, but can be manually done with ``/disconnect``
|
|
|
|
## Hosting a MultiWorld or Single-Player Game
|
|
See the [Mod Download](setup_en#mod-download) section to get the **cccharles.apworld** file.
|
|
|
|
In this section, **Archipelago/** refers to the path where [Archipelago](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago/releases) is installed locally.
|
|
|
|
Follow these steps to host a remote multiplayer or a local single-player session:
|
|
1. Double-click the **cccharles.apworld** to automatically install the world randomization logic
|
|
2. Put the **CCCharles.yaml** to **Archipelago/Players/** with the YAML of each player to host
|
|
3. Launch the Archipelago launcher and click "Generate" to configure a game with the YAMLs in **Archipelago/output/**
|
|
4. For a multiplayer session, go to the [Archipelago HOST GAME page](/uploads)
|
|
5. Click "Upload File" and select the generated **AP_\<seed\>.zip** in **Archipelago/output/**
|
|
6. Send the generated room page to each player
|
|
|
|
For a local single-player session, click "Host" in the Archipelago launcher by using the generated **AP_\<seed\>.zip** in **Archipelago/output/**
|
|
|
|
## Known Issues
|
|
### Major issues
|
|
No major issue found.
|
|
