Create a Config (.yaml) File
What is a config file and why do I need one?
See the guide on setting up a basic YAML at the Archipelago setup guide: Basic Multiworld Setup Guide
Where do I get a config file?
The Player Options page on the website allows you to configure your personal options and export a config file from them. Player options page: Void Sols Player Options Page
Verifying your config file
If you would like to validate your config file to make sure it works, you may do so on the YAML Validator page. YAML validator page: YAML Validation page
Joining a MultiWorld Game
- Launch Void Sols and verify you see the Archipelago logo on the main menu.
- For new games, press "Play" and then "New Game". Enter the server address, port, your slot name, and optional password. Fields are case-sensitive.
- For returning games, simply click on your save file to connect and play with saved info. If any information changes, use the three vertical dots context menu on the save to edit the data.
Hosting a MultiWorld game
The recommended way to host a game is to use our hosting service. The process is relatively simple:
- Collect config files from your players.
- Create a zip file containing your players' config files.
- Upload that zip file to the Generate page.
- Generate page: WebHost Seed Generation Page
- Wait a moment while the seed is generated.
- When the seed is generated, you will be redirected to a "Seed Info" page.
- Click "Create New Room". This will take you to the server page. Provide the link to this page to your players, so they may download their patch files from there (if applicable) or get the connection details.
