Psychonauts Archipelago Setup Guide

Setting up the required mods

  1. Install Psychonauts for PC, Astralathe, and the Psychonauts Randomizer Mod from the AP Companion Branch.
    Full Psychonauts Randomizer and Astralathe setup guide here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1b7QOnOLmTSvdC7A1YK3bsSmhtSOsAMs0XF5j-tyE6Zw/edit?usp=sharing
    Make sure Astralathe is up to date, use the AP Companion Branch of PsychoRando, and make sure to open the game with AstralatheLauncher.exe at least once.

  2. Download the psychonauts.apworld and install (easiest method is by trying to open the apworld file, Archipelago will install automatically)

  3. Open the Archipelago Launcher and run the Psychonauts Client. If you get an error message saying the root_directory could not be found, follow steps 4-5. Otherwise, skip to step 6.

  4. Find the folder that contains your Psychonauts and Astralathe installation, and copy the folder directory. For example, the most common place for the Steam version is "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Steam\\steamapps\\common\\Psychonauts"

  5. Run ArchipelagoLauncher.exe and open host.yaml from the Archipelago Launcher, find the psychonauts_options and paste your psychonauts game directory into the root_directory setting between the quotes. If the root directory contains single slashes between lines, change all of these to double slashes. If you don't, the client will fail to open

  6. Click "Generate Template Settings". This will open file explorer
    Find "Psychonauts.yaml" and copy it to /Players/ (create this folder if it does not exist)

  7. Open the YAML file and change the line that says "name: Player{number}" to your desired player name.
    Adjust the settings in the YAML to your liking

  8. Run ArchipelagoGenerate.exe

  9. Take the newly created AP_XXX.zip file in /output/ in upload it here: https://archipelago.gg/uploads then create a room

  10. Download patch file next to your player name, then unzip the file. This contains a file called RandoSeed.lua

  11. Find your Psychonauts game directory and open /ModResource/PsychoRando/Scripts

  12. Paste RandoSeed.lua from your generated Archipelago file into this folder. Replace the file in the destination if needed.

  13. Run AstralatheLauncher.exe to open the game. You should see your player number and name on the menu screen, along with your current randomizer version.

  14. From the menu, enter the yellow door to start a new game.

  15. From the Archipelago Launcher, open the Psychonauts Client and connect to your server hosted on archipelago.gg

  16. Once you've started a new save file and connected to the server, you can start playing!
