Changes

  • New Option to turn Vaults into loot boxes. If True, vaults will give a random number of arrowheads between 10-100, and have a 50% chance of giving a rank up. Get really lucky and you'll earn up to 500 Arrowheads or Five Ranks up!
  • New option for Enemy Damage Multiplier, to increase the amount of damage Raz takes for an added challenge. Ranges from 0-5. If set to 0, Raz will no longer take damage, but will still flinch when hit.
  • Rearranged order of Options in YAML for better grouping.
  • Seed settings are now passed into Slot Data for use by Pop Tracker.
  • PsiCard 102 is no longer skipped in the item pool, and PsiCard 108 has been removed.

Several Logic issues have been fixed or adjusted:

  • Black Velvetopia's logic has been changed to no longer require the Cobweb Duster for going past the Heart Street cobweb. Jumping down to the fire escape to the left will let you continue up the street to get into the Sewers and fight the Eagle Wrestler.
  • MM Post Office Lobby now in correct region.
  • MM2 Sniper requires Shield, not Invisibility.
  • Snail/Knight location only requires TK and not Fred's Letter.
  • Diego's House Grindrail and Diego's Room had their names around the wrong way, swapped.
  • Finishing Waterloo World now requires Levitation.
  • Meat Circus awning has it's own region for only Levitation.
  • Floor of Oly Escort now part of reachable locations without levitation or telekinesis

Psychonauts Randomizer 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/1cI3M07nWfDuBkv2M2c4NtCHPyq9koH4f2p53fgCQS4E/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 place inside your Archipelago/lib/worlds folder

  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

  10. Unzip the AP_XXX.zip file. Find the zipped file containing your player number and name, and unzip it. 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.

  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
    DO NOT CONNECT AND ENTER YOUR SLOT NAME UNLESS YOU ARE CHOOSING A NEW SAVE FILE OR HAVE STARTED A NEW GAME
    Connecting from the main menu may result in sending locations from previous playthroughs.

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