Toluca requires a similar setup found in other SNES games in Archipelago, you can follow one of those guides or keep reading this one.

• Archipelago 0.6.7 or newer
• Software or hardware capable of loading and playing SNES ROM files:
  • snes9x-nwa (Recommended!)
  • snes9x-rr
  • Bizhawk
  • BSNES-plus (Do not reset within the emulator, it'll lead to RAM corruption)
  • FxPak

  Any emulator or method not listed here is NOT endorsed by the developer, you may have varied results in those.

• Your Donkey Kong Country 3 (US) ROM file from the original cartridge. Archipelago or I can't provide these.

1. Place the .apworld in your Archipelago/custom_worlds folder, or double-click the .apworld to do so automatically.
2. Use ArchipelagoLauncher.exe to open the Launcher, and click on Generate Template Options to create template yamls for your custom .apworld files.
3. Place the desired player yamls in the Players folder, and customize them as you see fit.
4. Use ArchipelagoGenerate.exe to generate the game.
5. Upload the generated game (in the output folder) on the website at https://archipelago.gg/uploads and create a new room.
6. Download the patch file from the session page
7. Open the .apdktoluca file with ArchipelagoLauncher.exe, it should create a ROM file and open SNI Client.

1. Click on the Network Menu and check Enable Emu Network Control. This step is only required once.

2. Load your ROM file if it hasn't already been loaded.
3. The emulator should automatically connect while SNI is running.

1. Ensure the BSNES core is loaded.
2. Load your ROM file if it hasn't already been loaded. If you changed your core preference after loading the ROM, don't forget to reload it (default hotkey: Ctrl+R).
3. Drag+drop the Connector.lua file that you downloaded above onto the main EmuHawk window.
   • Look in the Archipelago folder for /SNI/lua/.
   • You could instead open the Lua Console manually, click Script 〉 Open Script, and navigate to Connector.lua with the file picker.

NOTE: If the BSNES core doesn't work, try using the Snes9x core or another emulator.

1. Open the patch file at least once with SNIClient (or the Launcher) to generate the ROM file.
2. Ensure SNI is running on the background. It's open for you when launching a SNIClient game.
3. Transfer the ROM file to your FxPak. Using manage_files.exe inside of the SNI folder in your Archipelago install is recommended.
4. Boot the game.
5. Connect with SNIClient to the server. SNIClient should connect to the FxPak automatically as long SNI is running on the background.

NOTE: If you want to reset or swap games, ensure you're disconnected from the Server first! Otherwise SNI will tell SNIClient some dirty lies about the state of the game and may clear locations for you, or worse, goal the game.

1. Load your ROM file if it hasn't already been loaded.
2. Click on the File menu and hover on Lua Scripting
3. Click on New Lua Script Window...
4. In the new window, click Browse...
5. Select the connector lua file included with your client
   Look in the Archipelago folder for /SNI/lua/
6. If you see an error while loading the script that states socket.dll missing or similar, navigate to the folder of the lua you are using in your file explorer and copy the socket.dll to the base folder of your snes9x install.

1. Load your ROM file if it hasn't already been loaded.
2. The emulator should automatically connect while SNI is running.

WARNING: Never, never, NEVER restart the game with one of the emulator buttons, it's better to close off the emulator and rerun it.

• Universal Tracker
• PopTracker pack made by MasakariPLZ

Universal Tracker is a custom APWorld that allows players to generate a list of in-logic locations for the current slot, very useful when trying to figure out why is something suddenly appearing as reachable.

• /explain "location name": It outputs the logic rules for a specific location, showing which item combinations will make it appear in logic.
• /glp "location name": Shows a list that explains how to reach to a certain location in the game.
