# The Grinch - Setup Guide
|
|
|
|
## Required Software
|
|
- [Archipelago](https://github.com/ArchipelagoMW/Archipelago/releases). Please use version 0.6.2 or later for integrated
|
|
BizHawk support.
|
|
- Legally obtained NTSC Bin ROM file, probably named something like `Grinch, The (USA) (En,Fr,Es).bin`.
|
|
- CUE files may work, but I have not tested this.
|
|
- [BizHawk](https://tasvideos.org/BizHawk/ReleaseHistory) Version 2.9.1 is supported, but I can't promise if any version is stable or not.
|
|
- The latest `grinch.apworld` file. You can find this on the [Releases page](https://github.com/MarioSpore/Grinch-AP/releases/latest). Put this in your `Archipelago/custom_worlds` folder.
|
|
|
|
## Configuring BizHawk
|
|
Once you have installed BizHawk, open `EmuHawk.exe` and change the following settings:
|
|
|
|
- If you're using BizHawk 2.7 or 2.8, go to `Config > Customize`. On the Advanced tab, switch the Lua Core from
|
|
`NLua+KopiLua` to `Lua+LuaInterface`, then restart EmuHawk. (If you're using BizHawk 2.9, you can skip this step.)
|
|
- Under `Config > Customize`, check the "Run in background" option to prevent disconnecting from the client while you're
|
|
tabbed out of EmuHawk.
|
|
- Under `Config > Preferred Cores > PSX`, select NymaShock.
|
|
- Open any PlayStation game in EmuHawk and go to `Config > Controllers…` to configure your inputs. If you can't click
|
|
`Controllers…`, it's because you need to load a game first.
|
|
You may need to invert Sensitivity for the up/down axis to -100%.
|
|
This can be found under Analog Controls through `Config > Controllers…`.
|
|
Depending on your controller, you may also want to tweak the Deadzone. Something like 6% is recommended for a DualShock 4.
|
|
- Consider clearing keybinds in `Config > Hotkeys…` if you don't intend to use them. Select the keybind and press Esc to
|
|
clear it.
|
|
|
|
## Generating a Game
|
|
|
|
1. Create your options file (YAML). After installing the `grinch.apworld` file, you can generate a template within the Archipelago Launcher by clicking `Generate Template Settings`.
|
|
2. Follow the general Archipelago instructions for [generating a game](https://archipelago.gg/tutorial/Archipelago/setup/en#generating-a-game).
|
|
3. Open `ArchipelagoLauncher.exe`
|
|
4. Select "BizHawk Client" in the right-side column. On your first time opening BizHawk Client, you will also be asked to
|
|
locate `EmuHawk.exe` in your BizHawk install.
|
|
|
|
### Connect to the Multiserver
|
|
|
|
Once both the client and the emulator are started, they must be connected. **This should happen automatically.**
|
|
However, if the lua script window doesn't appear, then within the emulator click
|
|
on the "Tools" menu and select "Lua Console". Click the folder button or press Ctrl+O to open a Lua
|
|
script. Navigate to your Archipelago install folder and open `data/lua/connector_bizhawk_generic.lua`.
|
|
|
|
To connect the client to the multiserver simply put `<address>:<port>` on the text field on top and
|
|
press enter (if the server uses a password, type in the bottom text field
|
|
`/connect <address>:<port> [password]`) |
