Installation
Just download the lastest build and put in your packs folder (as a zip or unpacked, both works).
PopTracker
For PopTracker the packs folder can be under USER/Documents/PopTracker/packs, USER/PopTracker/packs or APP/packs, where USER stands for your user directory and APP for the PopTracker installation directory.
EmoTracker
For EmoTracker the packs folder can be found under USER/Documents/EmoTracker/packs, where USER stands for your user directory.
Customization
PopTracker
For Customization in PopTracker just edit the pack's files. Documenation for PopTracker's pack format can be found here.
For example: if you want to change the broadcast layout, you can add your desired layout to the layout/broadcast.json file.
Make sure you have you layout backed up tho, so you don't lose it when you override the file while updating the pack.
EmoTracker
For Customization in EmoTracker you overwrite the pack's file by placing the file in EmoTracks overrides folder (USER/Documents/EmoTracker/user_overides). Good luck finding a documenation for EmoTracker tho :3.
Autotracking
This pack supports autotracking for items and locations in PopTracker. Requirements for Autotracking in PopTracker can be found here.
Known Issues
Role randomizer features are not supported in EmoTracker.
Troubleshooting
My Items are being tracked correctly but the Locations are not being tracked
If you are using an emulator it is most likely that you are using an emulator that does not allow the tracker to access the ROM. For example snes9x 1.5X and below does not allow that. Update to snes9x 1.60+ in that case.
If you are on hardware it is possible that the pack reads garbage as the event table before the game is started. Normally a reload of the pack should fix this. If not close the tracker and start it after the game is started.
