Create a Config (.yaml) File and ROM (.sfc)

What is a config file and why do I need one?

Your config file contains a set of configuration options which provide the generator with information about how it should generate your game. Each player of a multiworld will provide their own config file. This setup allows each player to enjoy an experience customized for their taste, and different players in the same multiworld can all have different options.

Where do I get the config and ROM files?

Unlike most MultiworldGG games, Chrono Trigger: Jets of Time config files are generated with the
CTJoT multiworld randomizer site.

To generate a ROM/yaml pair:

• Select the desired settings on the web generator
• Enter a player name in the "Generate Game" section
• Click the "Generate Seed" button to create the seed. This will bring you to the download page
• Optionally, select any cosmetic/personalization options you want for your game
• Select your Chrono Trigger ROM file (.sfc file)
• Download the seed and yaml files

The yaml file will be used by the person generating/hosting your session and the ROM is your patched game.

The ROM and yaml files form a pair that must be used together. Each time you join a new multiworld session you will need to generate another ROM and yaml from the web generator.

Joining a MultiWorld Game

Use the previous steps to create your config and ROM files. You will need to provide the .yaml file to the host.
