DELTARUNE MultiworldGG Setup Guide

Required Software

• DELTARUNE from the Steam page
  • If you want to use a Steam depot instead of a Steam install, use (download_depot 1671210 1671212 2054633419585385858)
• MultiworldGG from the MultiworldGG Releases Page
  • Require minimum 0.7.200
• If you want to use AP: DELTARUNE APWorld from the Releases Page
• DELTARUNE Archipelago mod from GameBanana Page or Releases Page

HIGHLY Recommended Software

• Only needed with AP: Universal Tracker APWorld from the UT Releases Page
• Archipelago Visual Tracker for DELTARUNE made by SylvieSpark and hotelPneumario (Sadly this only supports up to Chapter 5's Garden as of right now.)

Create your YAML

Your YAML file is the settings of your Archipelago world.

Using Generate Template Options you can find the default YAML and other presets in <MultiworldGG folder Path>\Players\Templates which you can edit to your liking. You can also use the Option Creator in the MultiworldGG Launcher but be warned that using Options Generator will make it harder to read some of the option descriptions. Otherwise, it works great.

After setting your options to your liking, you can generate a Multiworld by following the MultiworldGG Setup.

Installation

Remember that DELTARUNEAP will not affect your base DELTARUNE saves. DELTARUNEAP has a separate save folder for each slot you play as, meaning you can play multiple multiworld at once or even multiple slots in the same multiworld.

The game mod can either be installed through a Mod Loader or by using the Archipelago client.

You can also patch your game with DeltaPatcher if you would like, though we recommend the other options since they are easier.

Patching the game with a Mod Loader

Download the mod from GameBanana with either G3M or DeltaMod (We recommend using the xdelta version as it patches in 6 seconds versus csx that patches in like 2 minutes.)

OR Patching the game with the MultiworldGG DELTARUNE Client

1. Download the APWorld and place it into archipelago/custom_worlds (Double clicking the APWorld will also work!) (not needed with MWGG)

2. Download the bsdiff files from the mod Releases Page (it's the .zip that says "bsdiff" at the end).

3. Unzip the folder and rename it to DELTARUNE_PATCH

4. Move the DELTARUNE_PATCH folder to the root of MultiworldGG folder.

If you don't know where that is, you can find your MultiworldGG folder by clicking Browse Files in your MultiworldGG launcher.

5. Restart the MultiworldGG Launcher (Or start the launcher if it's not open yet)

6. Start the DELTARUNE client from your MultiworldGG folder or the Archipelago app.

7. If your game is installed on your C: drive through Steam, you can type /auto_patch steaminstall word for word or if it's a downloaded depot /auto_patch steamdepot (/auto_patch linux or /auto_patch linuxdepot for linux) at the bottom of the client. If this works, you can skip straight to step 8.

Usually, Steam automatically attempts to download games to you C: drive, so it will likely be there unless you know you told Steam to use a D: drive, for example. Though, if you're not sure, you can easily find the directory by opening the DELTARUNE directory through Steam by right-clicking DELTARUNE in your library and selecting Manage > Browse local files. Then, on Windows you can see the directory you need at the top of the window.

If your game isn't installed on your C: drive, or if it's not working for some reason, input the directory as explained in the previous instruction, like /auto_patch [directory]. Obviously don't put the square brackets [] inside the command.

8. Enter the command and wait for it to patch. This process is resource intensive, so don't freak out if it stops responding. Just be patient!

9. Next, go to your MultiworldGG folder. If everything goes according to plan, you will see a folder called DELTARUNE.

Inside this folder, run the DELTARUNE application.

You'll know you patched the game correctly if you get this screen.

Linux users

The Linux installation is mostly similar, however, DELTARUNE will be installed on Steam as the Linux variant.

Since this randomizer only supports the Windows version, we must fix this, by right-click the game in Steam, going to Properties -> Compatibility, and checking Force the use of a specific Steam Play compatibility tool.

This downloads the Windows version of DELTARUNE to use instead of the Linux version. If the play button is greyed out in Steam, be sure to go to Settings -> Compatibility and toggle Enable Steam Play for all other titles.

Hosting

If you are the host, once you have all of the players YAML, use the Generator provided by the MultiworldGG Launcher.

Once the output zip is generated, if you are playing a solo player multiworld you can host it yourself with the Host option in the Archipelago Client and connect to localhost:38281.

If you're not doing a solo multiworld you must upload it to the MultiworldGG upload page to generate your room.

Connect to the Multiworld

Open your patched DELTARUNE version and choose Change connection info to input your host, port, slot and (if applicable) password.

You can also copy/paste host:port directly into the host slot.

If you want to change the preview items color, it's configurable by switching menu with left/right arrow key.

Not required, but you can also open the DELTARUNE Client in the MultiworldGG Launcher to use Text commands. You can also use Universal Tracker features if you have the tracker APWorld installed.

Linux users

Linux users require the usage of a proxy. Start the Archipelago Deltarune Client, then connect to the room and use the command /linux_proxy. You should now be able to connect with the window method with localhost for host and 1225 as port.

On Steam (via Proton): This assumes the game is in a Steam Library folder. Right-click DELTARUNE, go to Manage -> Browse Local Files. Go up the directories to the steamapps folder, open compatdata/1671210 (1671210 is the "magic number" for DELTARUNE in Steam). Save data from here is at /pfx/drive_c/users/steamuser/AppData/Local/DELTARUNE.

Through WINE directly: This depends on the prefix used. If it is default, then the save data is located at /home/USERNAME/.wine/drive_c/users/USERNAME/AppData/Local/DELTARUNE.
