Bomberman 64 Setup Guide

What you need

• Bizhawk https://tasvideos.org/BizHawk/ReleaseHistory#Bizhawk210
• The latest bomberman_64.apworld provided in the latest release post

Installation

Same as every other unsupported N64 apworld,

• simply move bomberman_64.apworld into the custom_worlds directory in your Archipelago install server (default path: C:\ProgramData\Archipelago\custom_worlds)
• or simply double click the apworld and it should install itself (Archipelago version 0.5.0 and later)

Running

1. In the Archipelago launcher push the 'Generate Template Options' button to generate a yaml for your options
2. Like every other apworld, fill out your yaml options and have the host generate the multiworld, the produced zip file should contain a .apbomb64 patch file. Receive this .apbomb64 patch from the multiworld host.
3. Push the 'Open Patch' button in the launcher and it should ask for a 'Bomberman 64 (US)' legal ROM dump (MD5 Hash: 093058ece14c8cc1a887b2087eb5cfe9), then select the generated .apbomb64 patch file to produce a .z64 ROM which should auto launch in a bizhawk instance. You should be set otherwise from here just follow the same instructions as any other supported N64 apworld.

Troubleshooting

• The windows 7 version of archipelago uses python 3.8 which will not work with this apworld.
