|   | # Terraria for Archipelago Setup Guide
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## Required Software
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Download and install [Terraria](https://store.steampowered.com/app/105600/Terraria/) | ||
|  | and [TModLoader](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1281930/tModLoader/) on Steam | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## Installing the Archipelago Mod
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | Subscribe to [the mod](https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2922217554) on Steam. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | This mod might not work with mods that significantly alter progression or vanilla features. It is | ||
|  | highly recommended to use utility mods and features to speed up gameplay, such as: | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | - Journey Mode | ||
|  | - Ore Excavator | ||
|  | - Magic Storage | ||
|  | - Alchemist NPC Lite | ||
|  | - Reduced Grinding | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## Configuring your YAML File
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ### What is a YAML and why do I need one?
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | You can see the [basic multiworld setup guide](/tutorial/Archipelago/setup/en) here | ||
|  | on the Archipelago website to learn about why Archipelago uses YAML files and what they're for. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ### Where do I get a YAML?
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | You can use the [game settings page for Terraria](/games/Terraria/player-settings) here | ||
|  | on the Archipelago website to generate a YAML using a graphical interface. | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | ## Joining an Archipelago Game in Terraria
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | 1. Launch TModLoader | ||
|  | 2. In Workshop > Manage Mods, edit Archipelago Randomizer's settings | ||
|  |     - "Name" should be the player name you set when creating your YAML file | ||
|  |     - "Port" should be the port number associated with the Archipelago server. It will be a 4 or 5 | ||
|  |     digit number. | ||
|  |     - If you're not hosting your game on the Archipelago website, change "Address" to the server's | ||
|  |     URL or IP address | ||
|  | 3. Create a new character and world as normal (or use an existing one if you prefer). Terraria is | ||
|  | usually significantly more difficult with this mod, so it is recommended to choose a lower | ||
|  | difficulty than you normally would. | ||
|  | 4. Open the world in single player or multiplayer | ||
|  | 5. When you're ready, open chat, and enter `/apstart` to start the game. | ||
|  |     | ||
|  | ## Commands
 | ||
|  | 
 | ||
|  | While playing Archipelago, you can interact with the server using the commands listed in the | ||
|  | [commands guide](/tutorial/Archipelago/commands/en). To send a command, open chat, and enter `/ap`, | ||
|  | followed by the command you want to send. For example, `/ap !help`. |
