Saints Row 2Archipelago randomizer mod

Compatibility notes

• Use the matching 0.3.1 APWorld and SR2Archipelago.zip. This remains a work-in-progress integration. Version 0.3.1 corrects generated mission files for campaigns with Ultor disabled; regenerate affected room files rather than replacing only the plugin.
• Install Juiced Patch for the Steam or GOG PC edition, then the release scripts, Mods and bundled Win32 dinput8.dll. Add both documented mod paths to loose.txt and install the room-specific generated mods directory. The APWorld alone is insufficient.
• Linux uses the Windows game and loader through Wine or Proton with the documented DLL override. This is not a native Linux plugin or an independently verified Steam Deck setup.
• Close both the game and client when replacing files or switching rooms. Keep separate backed-up saves and preserve both SR2ArchipelagoRevisions.json and the client item ledger. A save checksum snapshot does not prove that an existing save belongs to the selected room.
• The client and plugin reject mismatched protocols and later room changes. The 0.3 progression and protocol changes should be used with a newly generated matching seed; older 0.2 room compatibility was not established.
• Keep the game bridge and AP client connected while playing. Checks already observed by the client can be resent, but native progression events occurring during a disconnection are not stored in a durable outbox. Reconnecting alone can leave them unsent until a fresh game-state scan.
• Several item effects, including weapons and cash, now run on the game thread, which addresses the former activity-interruption path. Their network acknowledgement still records successful queueing before the effect executes; a failure or interruption can leave delivery incomplete.
• Native co-op and multiplayer are unsupported. Gentlemen of the Row and the PC DLC mod are also unsupported. Start with the required setup on an otherwise vanilla copy, and confirm the intended seed/player in Archipelago Info.
• Use an explicit wss:// address when available and enter passwords through the client prompt. The inherited client logs the full connection address, so avoid embedding a password in that address. The local plugin bridge has no peer authentication.
• Keep at least one filler-category weight above zero when both trap types are disabled. The all-zero combination can reach an invalid filler choice even with the trap chance set to 100 percent.
• The archives include modified game scripts/tables and map imagery. Root source licences and third-party notices exist, but the release archives omit them and a separate redistribution basis for the game material was not found. This records a documentation gap, not a finding of unlawful distribution.
