0.5.0 - New UI, Exclude Levels, Partners, Configurable Boss -> Boss Sequence
Requirement:
- Using the -net8 releases requires .NET 8 Desktop Runtime
- Using the -self-contained requires no external dependencies (at the cost of the program being bigger on your drive)
- Both have the same functionality.
A video walk through of how to use the program can be found here:

Using SET Randomization requires setting Dolphin MEM1 to 64MB mode! Be aware of this if you choose to use SET Randomization, otherwise your game will crash on level load.
A Warning about Reloaded <= 1.1
If you use the "Random Partners" option, you may be unable to complete certain missions. To fix this issue, download the 'missing_events_reloaded_based_roms' and merge these into your extracted game's events
folder. It can be done before or after your randomization.
How to Interpret the Route Menu (Story Mode -> Pause In-Stage -> Y Button):
- Seeing a Dark Mission going to Digital Circuit can mean Digital Circuit, a Boss Stage, Westopolis, Last Way, or the end of route.
- Seeing a Normal Mission going to Glyphic Canyon can mean Glyphic Canyon, a Boss Stage, Westopolis, Last Way, or the end of route.
- Seeing a Hero Mission going to Lethal Highway can mean Lethal Highway, a Boss Stage, Westopolis, Last Way, or the end of route.
- All other cases reflect the actual mission you will progress to, though the possibility exists of a single boss in between the progression.
