#'''Download:''' Download Bizhawk and its prerequired files: [https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk-Prereqs/releases https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk-Prereqs/releases]<br/> [https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk/releases/ https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk/releases/]  
#'''Extracting:''' Extract both files after they are done downloading:<br/> [[File:Bizhawk 01.png|RTENOTITLE]]  
#'''Installing the Pre-Reqs:''' Open “bizhawk_prereqs_vX.X” and run “bizhawk_prereqs.exe” and go through with it by clicking “Next”.  <br/>  
#'''Starting the Emulator:'''Open “BizHawk-X.X.X” and run “EmuHawk.exe”.<br/>  
#'''Booting up the Rom:''' Select “File” and select “Open ROM”. Find your game and load it up!<br/> <br/> [[File:Rom.png|RTENOTITLE]]<br/>  
#'''Better Analog stick accuracy: <span style="font-size:x-small">Provided by Retzioka</span>'''<br/> While the game is running, go to the “Config” tab and select the “Controllers..” option. Set up the controls by clicking on the text boxes and input the desired button with your Controller. If it’s not registering the inputs from your Controller, then you are missing drivers for your Controller. Make sure you do not input anything in the 4 first boxes as shown below, as they will mess up your aiming in game when using the Bow / Hookshot / Etc.. Instead, change to the “Analog Controls” tab and click the “Bind” button.<br/> X Axis = Move your stick Left to Right once -- Y Axis = Move your stick Up to Down once.<br/> Also make sure you change the sensitivity of the Y Axis as shown below for easier control over aiming.<br/> [[File:Bizhawk 03.png|RTENOTITLE]]

 

== Optional Settings ==

#'''Hotkey Settings'''<br/> I suggest getting rid of most (if not all) the bound Hotkeys, as some of them can be bound by default to your controller (like fast forward) and be annoying when you play.<br/> Select a hotkey and simply press the "Escape" key on your keyboard.<br/> [[File:Bizhawk 04.png|RTENOTITLE]]<br/>  
#'''Better Graphics'''<br/> Go to the "Config" tab, select "Cores" and then "N64 Video Plugin Settings".<br/> you should see a third box named "Video Resolution".<br/> 640x480 is recommended, but depending on the available PC specs, a higher resolution is possible.<br/> Higher resolutions may affect your FPS and can slow the game down.<br/> <br/> Change Active Video Plugin to '''GlideN64''' (If that doesn't work, try Mk2)<br/> [[File:Bizhawk 05.png|RTENOTITLE]]<br/>  
#'''Background Inputs'''<br/> As a Streamer, you may have to click around often. This will make sure that whatever you do, the Emulator will register the inputs from your Controller.<br/> Go to “Config” and select “Customize..” Make sure the 5th and 6th box are both Checked.<br/> It is also recommended to uncheck the “Pause when Menu Activated” box too.<br/> ''If you selected a high resolution at #2, your FPS might go down if you click somewhere other than on the Emulator, like a second monitor.<br/> [[File:Bizhawk 06.png|RTENOTITLE]]''<br/> <br/>  
#'''''Aspect Ratio'''''<br/> If you decide to make your Emulator’s Window Fullscreen, your game will look stretched, which is not a nice sight for either you or your viewers. This will ensure the game will stay in its original 4:3 Ratio.<br/> Go to “Config” and select “Display”. Check the “Maintain Aspect Ratio (Letterbox)” box and select “Use 1:1 Pixel Size”.<br/> [[File:Bizhawk 07.png|RTENOTITLE]]<br/>  
#'''Gamecube Adapter Support'''<br/> Download the drivers for your WII U Adapter via [http://m4sv.com/page/wii-u-gcn-usb-driver this_link].<br/> Some of you who wishes to use your Gamecube Controller with the Wii U Adapter, connect only the Black USB end of the Wii U Adapter to your PC and connect your Gamecube controllerin the left most slot, then run as an Administrator the “''WiiU-UsbSetup 2015-09-02.exe''”.<br/> Once the installation starts, a new Window will appear under the name “Zadig”.<br/> In the first box, select “WUP-028” and then select either “Install Driver” or “Reinstall Driver”. It will be the big box in the middle of the Window.<br/> [[File:Bizhawk 08.png|RTENOTITLE]]<br/> Once done, close this Window with the “X” in the upper right corner, this will make the process keep going. Keep pressing “Next” until the program ask you to Reboot your PC.<br/> After restarting your PC, you will now have a “Wii U USB GCN Adapter” icon (Gamecube Controller looking icon). Open it up as a Administrator and select “Start”.<br/> Your PC will be making several connection noises as if you are plugging and unplugging stuff, this is normal. Let it do it’s thing until you see “Driver Successfully Started, entering input loop”. You will have to repeat this process every time you restart your PC or close the program entirely. If you close this Window, the program will be minimized and will still be running in the background.<br/> [[File:Bizhawk 09.png|RTENOTITLE]]<br/> Now open up the Emulator “EmuHawk.exe” and start the Game. Go to “Config” and select “Controllers…”. From here, simply click any of the text box and use your Controller to register inputs! This method is also used for the Gamecube / Wii Emulator knowns as “Dolphin”.<br/> ''If this didn’t work, uninstall and try again. May take 2-3 attempts.''

= '''Getting Multiworld Set Up''' =

'''by Raikaru13'''

{{TOClimit|4}}  

== Instructions ==

=== Step 0: Generating the ROMs ===

This guide is intended for use with the Randomizer version 4.0.

Start off by going to the [https://www.ootrandomizer.com/ Webpatcher] and set up the settings you want for the seed. On the `Rom Options` tab change the `World Count` to however many people will be playing. Once you're done, generate the seed.<br/> [[File:Multiworld Setup4.0.png|RTENOTITLE]]

Share this Page with all players participating. Now, discuss among yourselves who will be which player number. For example, the host would be player 1, and the others would be players 2 onwards.

Now, everyone can open the page, select their rom/wad, change the `Player ID` section to whatever player number you are, set up your cosmetics, then patch the ROM.

 

Each player should have their own Randomizer ROM, with the formula `OoT_SeedID_SettingsHash_W0P0` with the W0 and P0 being world count and player ID respectively.

Multiworld is playable only on Bizhawk. This guide will help you through the custom install needed to set up Bizhawk to run Multiworld.

 

=== Step 1: Download the Custom Bizhawk Installer ===

The very first thing that you must do is download the Multiworld script from [https://github.com/TestRunnerSRL/bizhawk-co-op TestRunner's GitHub page]. When you download this, extract its contents to ''its own folder'' - it will be creating a new Bizhawk install for you to use, so you must keep it separate. ''Note: Whenever there is an update to the Multiworld script, everybody playing must update to the latest version.''

 

=== Step 2: Running the Custom Bizhawk Installer ===

Once you have the contents extracted to its own folder, locate the <code>bizhawk-co-op.ps1</code> file. Right Click and select Run with PowerShell.<br/> <br/>   [[File:MWG1.png|610x149px|Run with PowerShell]]<br/>  

If Powershell prompts you for permissions, say yes to all. From here, the Powershell is getting you 99% of the way done: it will create a new Bizhawk 2.3 install and place everything for you. Once Powershell is done, open up the Bizhawk 2.3 folder it created and launch <code>EmuHawk.exe</code>. ''Note: It is recommended you delete everything outside of the Bizhawk 2.3 folder that was created. These files are no longer needed and only add confusion.''

 

 

=== Step 3: Configuring Bizhawk for Multiworld ===

3.1 - There are a few things you need to do once you've got the emulator running. The very first thing is go to Config -> Customize and navigate to the Advanced tab. At the bottom, there is an option for Lua Core; select Lua+LuaInterface and hit OK.<br/> <br/>   [[File:MWG2.png|420x487px|Advanced Customization]]<br/>  

In the General tab of the Customize menu, check the box to enable Accept background input – this will allow Bizhawk to keep accepting controller inputs when you tab over to your tracker or notes. Clear your hotkeys by going to Config -> Hotkeys, and at the bottom click Misc and Clear All.

3.2 - The next step is to set your controller up. Your controller configuration will vary based on what controller you are using. For a smooth controller experience, you must unbind the first 4 binds in Config -> Controller such that it looks like this:<br/> <br/>   [[File:MWG3.png|320x207px|Normal Controls]]<br/>  

You'll then have to bind your analog stick in the Analog tab of your controller config and adjust your sensitivity and deadzones to your preference. ''Additional info on controller setup can be found in Step 6 of the [[Bizhawk|Bizhawk Guide]].''

3.3 - You can fix how your game looks by going to Config -> Cores -> N64 Video Plugin Settings. In here, change your resolution so that it runs smooth. Multiworld will drop your performance, so keep that in mind. The recommended video plugin is GLideN64. ''(This is not the same plugin as Glide64!)''

 

 

=== Step 4: Opening the Lua Console ===

Once you have your emulator set up to run how you are comfortable with, its time to move to the Lua console. Go to Tools -> Lua Console, and a separate window will open up. ''This window must remain open at all times during a Multiworld.'' In the Lua Console, go to Settings and checkmark the Disable Scripts on loads.<br/> <br/>   [[File:MWG4.png|586x379px|Disable Scripts on Load]]<br/>  

This is the last of the settings changes you have to do. If you want Bizhawk to retain these settings changes for the next time, go to Config -> Save Config. Once you have these steps done, '''you MUST close your emulator and reopen it for this change to take effect'''. Close out of Bizhawk, and then reopen it and the Lua Console. If for some reason you do not have your Multiworld ROM open, you must do so now.

From here in the Lua Console, Open Script and locate the <code>bizhawk co-op.lua</code> file in the Bizhawk 2.3 folder. Once you have that done, a red square will appear in the console; double click it and a new window will open up.<br/> <br/>   [[File:MWG5.png|296x349px|Bizhawk co-op]]<br/>  

This window must ''also'' stay open at all times.

 

=== Step 5: Rooms ===

The Lua Console Script is where you set up a room and join rooms.

If you are the Host: You must port forward. How you do this varies on what brand your router is. Instructions on how to do this can be found by Googling your brand/model of router. Once that is done, in the Bizhawk Co-op window the Host must set their name, password, and the port that was forwarded, along with setting the game script to Ocarina of Time. Hit Create Room and tell the people joining the Room Name, password, and port. ''(It is not recommended to use your own personal password here, as it is shared with the group. Use something that will prevent random people from joining your room, but not something that will compromise your own security.)''

If you are Joining and the Host has set up the room: hit Refresh in the Bizhawk Co-op window and select the Host's Room from the dropdown bar. When you input your username, keep in mind the game will use this to display who got what item for everyone playing. It will max out at 8 characters, even if you input more. Fill in the password and port number the Host gave you and select the Ocarina of Time Game Script and hit Join Room.

 

=== Step 6: Play Some Multiworld! ===

Go and have fun with new or old friends! If you are part of the Ocarina of Time Randomizer Discord, you can assign the Multiworld role to yourself by going to the #chat-bot channel (under Misc) and typing <code>!role Multiworld</code> - this will allow you to receive pings in the server where there are announcements from the Devs or folks are looking for players. You can also visit #multiworld-planning (under Races) to look for additional players. It is ''highly'' recommended that you use a Tracker so that you don't accidentally leave those new friends out to dry if you miss a check. Additional info about Trackers can be found [[Trackers|here]]. Map Trackers such as 2deep4real's Web Tracker or Hamsda's Map and Item Tracker package for EmoTracker are highly recommended.

 

== Special Circumstances ==

=== Manual Setup ===

This will be helpful to those who can not run PowerShell for some reason. First download, extract, and run the Bizhawk prerequisite found [https://github.com/TASVideos/BizHawk-Prereqs/releases/download/2.1/bizhawk_prereqs_v2.1.zip here]. ''(Yes, this step is absolutely required.)'' Next, download the following zip file and extract it to ''its own folder''. This will contain an archived version of the co-op build from 12/27/18. [https://www.dropbox.com/s/t9ia81ao993rhtv/BizHawk-2.3.zip?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/t9ia81ao993rhtv/BizHawk-2.3.zip?dl=0] This archival copy will need to be updated a bit; you will need to download the latest build of co-op and replace the ram controller files in <code>/bizhawk-co-op/ramcontroller/</code>. The latest version of this file can be found at [https://github.com/TestRunnerSRL/bizhawk-co-op/tree/master/bizhawk-co-op/ramcontroller https://github.com/TestRunnerSRL/bizhawk-co-op/tree/master/bizhawk-co-op/ramcontroller].

 

=== Can't Port-Forward ===

If nobody in your multiworld group can port-forward for whatever reason, and you cannot get someone who can to join, then there is a program you can use: Hamachi.<br/> Let me preface this by saying that Hamachi basically 'tricks' your computers to believe that you are all connected via LAN.

To start, download Hamchi [[https://www.vpn.net/ here]] and install it. Create an account, and go to System > Preferences > Settings to make sure that 'Encryption' is enabled. Then, click on the power button to go online.

If you're hosting, then click Network > Create a new network. Give it a unique name and password, making sure that nobody other than the people you're playing with find out this information. After this, you'll see it pop onscreen:

[[File:Guide.JPG|RTENOTITLE]]

To join an existing network, click Network > Join an existing network. Type in your friend's network ID and the network's password.

Once you're all connected in the network, you can start the multiworld.

Right click on the address above your nickname, and click 'Copy IPv4 adress':

[[File:Guide2.JPG|RTENOTITLE]]

Then, start up the Bizhawk co-op lua script. Set 'Rooms' to '(Custom IP)' and paste the IPv4 into the 'Host IP' bar. Set your Username and Password as usual, and the game script to Ocarina of Time. 

Now you should be ready to start. As usual, if you have any more problems, seek advice within the OoTR Discord Server. '''Oh, and, be careful with who you give permission to join your network to.'''

 

=== 3.0 Legacy ===

The Bizhawk co-op script available from GitHub is intended for use with Randomizer version 4.0. If a Multiworld seed was generated using 3.0, then ''all players'' must replace 2 files. First, the file found at <code>/bizhawk-co-op/ramcontroller/Ocarina of Time.lua</code> with the 3.0-compatible version of the file available here: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/odwjtm34827tyun/Ocarina%20of%20Time.lua?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/odwjtm34827tyun/Ocarina%20of%20Time.lua?dl=0]. Second, the file found at <code>bizhawk-co-op/sync.lua</code> with [https://www.dropbox.com/s/woreg19wsjpspvl/sync.lua?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/woreg19wsjpspvl/sync.lua?dl=0]. If Bizhawk is running when you replace these files, you must close and restart Bizhawk for it to use these legacy files.

[https://www.dropbox.com/s/t9ia81ao993rhtv/BizHawk-2.3.zip?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/t9ia81ao993rhtv/BizHawk-2.3.zip?dl=0] This archival copy will need to be updated a bit; you will need to download the latest build of co-op and replace the ram controller files in <code>/bizhawk-co-op/ramcontroller/</code>. The latest version of this file can be found at [https://github.com/TestRunnerSRL/bizhawk-co-op/tree/master/bizhawk-co-op/ramcontroller https://github.com/TestRunnerSRL/bizhawk-co-op/tree/master/bizhawk-co-op/ramcontroller].

 

=== Can't Port-Forward ===

If nobody in your multiworld group can port-forward for whatever reason, and you cannot get someone who can to join, then there is a program you can use: Hamachi.<br/> Let me preface this by saying that Hamachi basically 'tricks' your computers to believe that you are all connected via LAN.

To start, download Hamchi [[https://www.vpn.net/ here]] and install it. Create an account, and go to System > Preferences > Settings to make sure that 'Encryption' is enabled. Then, click on the power button to go online.

If you're hosting, then click Network > Create a new network. Give it a unique name and password, making sure that nobody other than the people you're playing with find out this information. After this, you'll see it pop onscreen:

[[File:Guide.JPG|RTENOTITLE]]

To join an existing network, click Network > Join an existing network. Type in your friend's network ID and the network's password.

Once you're all connected in the network, you can start the multiworld.

Right click on the address above your nickname, and click 'Copy IPv4 adress':

[[File:Guide2.JPG|RTENOTITLE]]

Then, start up the Bizhawk co-op lua script. Set 'Rooms' to '(Custom IP)' and paste the IPv4 into the 'Host IP' bar. Set your Username and Password as usual, and the game script to Ocarina of Time. 

Now you should be ready to start. As usual, if you have any more problems, seek advice within the OoTR Discord Server. '''Oh, and, be careful with who you give permission to join your network to.'''

 

=== 3.0 Legacy ===

The Bizhawk co-op script available from GitHub is intended for use with Randomizer version 4.0. If a Multiworld seed was generated using 3.0, then ''all players'' must replace 2 files. First, the file found at <code>/bizhawk-co-op/ramcontroller/Ocarina of Time.lua</code> with the 3.0-compatible version of the file available here: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/odwjtm34827tyun/Ocarina%20of%20Time.lua?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/odwjtm34827tyun/Ocarina%20of%20Time.lua?dl=0]. Second, the file found at <code>bizhawk-co-op/sync.lua</code> with [https://www.dropbox.com/s/woreg19wsjpspvl/sync.lua?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/woreg19wsjpspvl/sync.lua?dl=0]. If Bizhawk is running when you replace these files, you must close and restart Bizhawk for it to use these legacy files.

= “My Seed Is Broken!” (Glitchless Logic) =

Solutions to completing randomized runs of ''Ocarina of Time'' can sometimes be unintuitive. While your seed may appear to be unbeatable, this isn’t often the case. Thanks to developers much smarter than myself, OoTR’s logic is surprisingly robust. Listed below are some common sources of confusion, grouped by location. If you don’t mind spoiling the rest of your playthrough, instructions to finding your next step will be listed [[#knowing-the-way-with-the-spoiler-log|here]].

If you follow these steps and still need help, you’re welcome to ask for support in the #questions-gameplay channel of our [https://discord.gg/3VJPQNK Discord Server]. Make sure to provide your seed and setting string along with any important details about the issue. If it turns out you have indeed encountered a logical flaw, kind members of our team will report issues from there.

== Problem Areas by Location ==

=== Link’s House: ===

==== Stuck beside bed ====

*Tilt the Control Stick to move around. Go through the door and you will reach Kokiri Forest. The game gets much easier from there.

=== Hyrule Field ===

==== Open grottos without Bombs ====

*Any grotto you can open with Bombs may also be opened with Hammer.
*Some grottos will only reveal themselves when you play Song of Storms.

=== Kakariko Village: ===

==== Shooting Gallery gives 50 rupees ====

*The Fairy Bow/Quiver is required to win the special prize. Otherwise you will receive 50 rupees. 

==== Can’t get onto rooftops without Longshot ====

*Yes you can. Get a little closer and use the Hookshot.

==== Well won't drain ====

*Project 64 is known to have issues with this, among other things. For the purposes of this project, we can only recommend using a different emulator.

=== Goron City: ===

==== Reach Goron City from Lost Woods without Bombs ====

*You can ignite the Bomb Flowers behind the boulders using Din’s Fire.

==== Get big rolling Goron to relinquish goods ====

*Even if you have serious Zelda skills (or Bombchus), a Bomb Bag is required. Bomb the Goron in the tunnel near the sign.

==== Boulder Maze without Bombs or Hammer ====

*Silver Guantlets are effective at clearing a path to each of the chests in the room. This will take some time, however.

=== Lost Woods: ===

==== Skull Kid won’t buy this sweet Skull Mask ====

*Skull Kid won’t buy Skull Mask until you befriend him with Saria’s Song.

=== Zora’s Domain: ===

==== Need Blue Fire to unfreeze King Zora/Zora shop ====

*If you have access to Ganon’s Castle, Blue Fire can be found in Water Trial.

*Blue Fire may be a purchasable item.
*As usual, Blue Fire can be obtained in Ice Cavern.

=== Lake Hylia: ===

==== Go fishing ====

*You must have a sword in order to play the fishing minigame. It’s because you need to threaten him or something.

// FIXME: Is this still true? Do you need Kokiri Sword specifically?

==== Get Scarecrow’s Song ====

*In order to use the Scarecrow’s Song, you must teach it to Bonooru as a child, and remind him again as an adult.

=== Temple of Time: ===

==== Open Door of Time ====

*Playing the Song of Time is the only requirement to opening the Door of Time.

=== Forest Temple: ===

==== Get outside without Song of Time or Bow ====

*With Hover Boots you can float to the door connecting the large block-pushing room with the courtyard.

==== Can’t push large colored blocks as adult, wtf man?? ====

*The Goron’s Bracelet is required to push these blocks, even as adult. Link only put on gauntlets to keep his hands from drying out.

=== Death Mountain Crater: ===

==== Reach the bottom area for Bolero of Fire and access to Fire Temple ====

*Using only the Hover Boots, you can float down to the shortcut to Goron City, and across the dilapidated bridge.
*You can also reach this bottom area with Scarecrow’s Song and the Longshot by jumping onto the platforms below and pulling yourself across the pool of lava.

// FIXME: Do you need Hover Boots to reach the platforms around scarecrow?

=== Fire Temple: ===

==== Reach Volvagia without Hammer ====

*With Hover Boots equipped, it’s a simple matter of floating over to the boss door. That said, you’ll need the Hammer to actually ''do'' anything in there.

=== Water Temple: ===

==== Boss Key chest without Bombs or Goron’s Bracelet ====

*Use the Hover Boots to reach the chest.

==== Getting past the gate without Longshot ====

*After shooting the eye switch, crossing the gap with Hover Boots will get you past the gate before it closes.

==== Center room’s Gold Skulltula without Longshot ====

*Cast Farore’s Wind inside the center room. Raise the water to its highest level and return to the warp point. Swim to the surface to reach the Gold Skulltula.

==== I can’t raise the water level ====

*With the water level lowered, jump down to the second level of the central structure. Use the Hookshot to climb onto the top level. With a well-spaced rolling jump you should be able to reach the ledge where you can raise the water to its highest level.

=== Shadow Temple: ===

==== Spike floor room without Longshot ====

*Backflip onto the chest spawned in the middle of the room. From there you can use the Hookshot to reach the upper ledge.

==== Reach the boat without Goron’s Bracelet ====

*You can bypass pushing the large block by shooting the ladder with a Hookshot.

==== Reach Bongo Bongo without the Fairy Bow ====

*Play the Scarecrow’s Song to summon Pierre. Shoot his face with the Longshot to get to the other side.

=== Spirit Temple: ===

<div class="mw-parser-output">
<h4>Lower metal bridge on child side without Boomerang</h4>

<ul>
<li>You can hit the crystal switch with a well-timed Bombchu placement in the opposite direction. Hopefully you’ll hit it, or you’ll have to go out and buy more Bombchus.</li>
<li>Y</li>
</ul>
</div>

==== Map chest without Din’s Fire or Magic ====

*Child Link is perfectly capable of lighting the torches using only a Deku Stick.

==== Collect all the silver rupees in the boulder room without Hover Boots ====

*You can reach the floating rupee by jumping into the boulder with a jump slash.

==== Silver Guantlets chest from adult side using Longshot ====

*With a Longshot, shoot the chest opposite from the Mirror Shield chest to gain access to its contents and the end of child-side.

=== Gerudo Training Grounds: ===

==== Lava room without Longshot ====

*You can reach the torch at the end of this room using only the Hookshot.

==== Timed boulder room without Longshot ====

*The target on the ceiling is just within range of the Hookshot if you stand directly under it.
*A wallmaster can also lift you up into the rupee if it’s the last one you need to collect.

=== Ganon’s Castle ===

==== Spirit Trial without Din’s Fire ====

*A precise shot of an arrow through the torch will burn the web to reveal the sunlight. Or moonlight. Maybe it’s a big lamp, idk.

== Knowing the Way with the Spoiler Log ==

The spoiler log can be very helpful when looking for important items you missed. It takes only a few steps: 1. Open the spoiler log generated alongside your ROM. It should be formatted as <code>OoT_SETTINGSTR_SEED_Spoiler.txt</code>. 2. Scroll down to the section labeled ''Way of the Hero''. 3. Ensure that you have collected all the items listed in the section, as they are essential to beating the game.
