rsinha Posted July 24, 2023 Share Posted July 24, 2023 (edited) I've made a tool that randomizes Pokemon Ranger: Shadows of Almia. The game is randomized in such a way that prevents softlocks (i.e. doesn't get rid of necessary field moves to progress in the game). The tool can be found on Github: https://github.com/ronitsinha/almia-randomizer. I'd like to shoutout Aurum's work on AlmiaE, which I referenced heavily in the development of this tool. Let me know your thoughts! Edited July 24, 2023 by rsinha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sekadai Posted October 26, 2023 Share Posted October 26, 2023 hey im new to the almia randomizer setup , is there a way you could send me a rom of the randomized almia or atleast some way for me to better understand how to set things up ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsinha Posted October 27, 2023 Author Share Posted October 27, 2023 Yeah no worries. Start by just getting a vanilla rom of almia (google is your friend). Once you have that, go to the github link above and click on the "Releases" section on the right. From there, just click on the most recent release (as of this post, its v2023.10.25.1), and download the program. If you have a windows computer, download the .exe folder. Then, make sure the randomizer and the rom are in the same directory. Then in a terminal (like cmd on Windows), navigate to the directory and do "./ranger_randomizer.exe <name of rom> randomized.nds". That will spit out a new, randomized rom named randomized.nds that can be played with any NDS emu. If these steps are hard to follow lmk and we can arrange something else so that you can get a randomized rom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sekadai Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 it says " the system cannot find the file specified " i have the rom and the github zip as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rsinha Posted October 27, 2023 Author Share Posted October 27, 2023 (edited) Do you mind posting a screenshot of you running the command and the file it gives you? You should download the .exe, not the necessarily the zip file. If the system cannot find the specified file it might be that you're terminal is not in the correct directory when you run the command. You have to use a terminal command to "cd" into the correct directory beforehand. Edit: At some point I do want to make a graphical program that can just be double-clicked instead of using terminal Edited October 27, 2023 by rsinha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
