# VVVVVV MultiWorld Setup Guide
|
|
|
|
## Required Software
|
|
|
|
- VVVVVV (Bought from the [Steam Store](https://store.steampowered.com/app/70300/VVVVVV/) or [GOG Store](https://www.gog.com/game/vvvvvv) Page, NOT Make and Play Edition!)
|
|
- [V6AP](https://github.com/N00byKing/VVVVVV/releases)
|
|
|
|
## Installation and Game Start Procedures
|
|
|
|
1. Install VVVVVV through either Steam or GOG
|
|
2. Go to the page linked for V6AP, and download the latest release
|
|
3. 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.
