About

This document is a guide on how to enable “map select” for Wind Waker Randomizer used to practice. With the map select screen, you are able to directly teleport to specific locations. This works for both emulators and consoles.

Setup

  1. Go to your randomizer program location.
  2. Open up the command prompt by typing “cmd” in the explorer’s bar (see picture 1). This will launch a command prompt at the correct location
    (Picture 1)Example of how to access command prompt using window explorer
  3. Type in (with the quotes) the whole line. You can right click in command prompt to paste:
    1. “Wind Waker Randomizer.exe” -mapselect
  4. This will launch up the usual randomizer without any visual difference
  5. While you can use any settings, as we are creating a practice file, we should start with all items and equipment. The following permalink should be what you need. You will start with all equipment, and enable only dungeon checks (version 1.9):
