    • Generate a new game or hit Play, then press Start Tracker to try it out!

For more details, see the in-game voice commands reference by starting Tracker, then going to View and selecting Help, or read the pre-release patch notes.

Items, bosses and Tracker responses can be customized by editing the %LocalAppData%\SMZ3CasRandomizer\tracker.json file. Please note that this file may be overwritten by updates, so make sure to back up your changes before you update!

Changes in 2.1.2.2

Changes in 2.1.2.1

  • Fixed crash when generating seeds after updating from v2.0. Please note that some settings may be lost.

If you're already on a 2.1 or higher, this version can be skipped.

Changes in 2.1.2

  • Removed some soundtracks from the Shuffle All option that didn't work;
  • Fixed bad checksum warnings that appear when running with snes9x;
  • Improved seed option to allow any input, not just numbers;
  • Window size and the collapsed/expanded state of the groups are now saved on exit and restored on startup.

Changes in 2.1.1

  • Added option to configure the folder where new seeds will be saved to.
    • Please note that for the built-in MSU-1 support to work, the MSU files need to be on the same drive. If you move the seeds to a new location, you'll need to move the MSU files as well.
  • Added heart color and low health beeping options.

Changes in 2.1

  • Fixed crash when playing without a custom music pack selected. Extended soundtrack support is now an option and can only be turned on if a music pack is selected;
  • Added dungeon music shuffle option, inspired by the bug in the previous version;
  • Added Peg World ("Hammer Pegs") item pool option.

Features

  • Infinite Bomb Jumping (IBJ) is never required to complete a seed!
  • Quick Swap in A Link to the Past (based on tewtal/alttp_sm_combo_randomizer_rom#55)
  • Extra sprite options! Many thanks to Fragger and PaddyCo from Betus’ community and others;
  • Built-in MSU-1 support;

Quick start

  1. Download and run the attached installer;
    Please install the .NET 5.0 Desktop Runtime if prompted. In future versions, this will be done automatically.
  2. Expand Game options and select the original Super Metroid and A Link to the Past ROM files;
  3. Change any other settings as desired and press Play to start the emulator directly*, or Generate ROM to view the ROM file instead.

Note: to use the Play button you first need to set up the emulator as the default program for .sfc files. You can do this simply by double-clicking the generated ROM and selecting the emulator to run it with.
