APQuest Randomizer Setup Guide
Required Software
- Archipelago
- The APQuest apworld, if not bundled with your version of Archipelago
Optional Software
- APQuest AP Tracker, for use with PopTracker
How to play
First, you need a room to connect to. For this, you or someone you know has to generate a game.
This will not be explained here,
but you can check the Archipelago Setup Guide.
You also need to have Archipelago installed and the The APQuest apworld installed into Archipelago.
From here, connecting to your APQuest slot is easy. There are two scenarios.
Webhost Room
If your room is hosted on a WebHost (e.g. archipelago.gg),
you should be able to simply click on your name in the player list.
This will open the Archipelago Launcher
and ask you whether you want to connect with the Text Client or the APQuest Client.
Choose "APQuest Client". The rest should happen completely automatically and you should be able to play APQuest.
Locally hosted room
If your room does not have a WebHost room page available, you can launch APQuest manually.
Open the Archipelago Launcher, and then select the APQuest Client from the list.
After a short while, the APQuest client should open.
Enter the server address at the top and click "Connect".
Then, enter your name. If a password exists, enter the password.
You should now be connected and able to play APQuest.
Switching Rooms
The APQuest Client can seamlessly switch rooms without restarting.
Simply click the "Disconnect" button, then connect to a different slot/room.
Auto-Tracking
AP Quest has a fully functional map tracker that supports auto-tracking.
- Download APQuest AP Tracker and PopTracker.
- Put the tracker pack into packs/ in your PopTracker install.
- Open PopTracker, and load the APQuest pack.
- For autotracking, click on the "AP" symbol at the top.
- Enter the Archipelago server address (the one you connected your client to), slot name, and password.
