Powerful open progress tracker is a project to offer a universal, scriptable randomizer tracking solution that it is open source, runs everywhere and supports auto-tracking.
This is work in progress. Some pre-existing packs work, some do not.
Download a binary release or build from source.
Nix users can install poptracker from nixpkgs.
Drag & drop downloaded packs into the PopTracker window to install them without unpacking.
Alternatively copy or unpack tracker packs into one of the search paths
EXEDIR/packs (not on macOS), HOME/PopTracker/packs,
Documents/PopTracker/packs or CWD/packs.
Use the Load button in the top left corner to load a pack.
Do not load untrusted packs until some sort of fuzzing is done.
Binary release is Windows 64bit and macOS 64bit only at the moment (see Download prebuilt exe or app),
should compile on most unix-like OS (see Building from source).
WASM support still needs a lot of work.
Check BUILD.md, CONTRIBUTING.md, doc/OUTLINE.md and doc/TODO.md if you want to join in on the development journey.
Check doc/PACKS.md if you want to write a game pack for this tracker.
Upstream URL is https://github.com/black-sliver/PopTracker/
Head over to releases and unfold "Assets" of the latest release or pre-release to get a Windows exe or macOS app.
We have AppImage builds on the Community Discord for Linux.
You still need to install which and a dialog provider (zenity, kdialog, matedialog, qarma or xdialog)
to run them.
See BUILD.md.

| Color | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Red | This check is not currently accessible. |
| Yellow | This check is not logically accessible, but the location can be reached through alternate methods (e.g. glitches, breaking key logic) |
| Orange | Some (but not all) checks at this location are accessible. |
| Green | All checks at this location are logically accessible. |
| Blue | The check at this location is visible, but you cannot currently access the check. |
| Other | Locations with mixed accessibility checks will have the corresponding colors mixed. |
Colors can be customized by following instructions on the Color Picker page.
Press Ctrl+P to switch between "mixed" and "split" map location colors.
Requires SNI or QUsb2Snes (flash cart, emu, snes mini) or usb2snes (flash cart only). See their respective documentation.
We do not allow direct access to process memory or sockets from Lua. Instead UAT can be used to receive "variables".
Archipelago allows connecting to a Multiworld as a tracker. Click on the grey "AP" to connect to a server if the pack supports it. See doc/AUTOTRACKING.md for more details.
Preview, currently only when setting platform to "n64". See doc/AUTOTRACKING.md for details.
No work has been done for other systems yet.
- Major update (X.0.0) may break everything
- Minor update (0.X.0) may change render output (i.e. window captures break)
- Revisions (0.0.X) should only fix bugs and add non-breaking features
Currently there is no plug-in interface.
If you want to work towards implementing such a system, please check PLUGIN LICENSE ADDENDUM.md for licensing considerations.
Users can override files from packs by creating a folder with the same file
structure as in the pack, named .../user-override/<pack_uid> where ... is
any one of Documents/PopTracker, %home%/PopTracker or AppPath.
When creating a file called portable.txt next to the program (not macos) or
next to poptracker inside the AppBundle (macos-only), the app runs in
portable mode, which changes the default pack folder to be next to the program
(not in home folder) and disables asset and pack overrides from home folder
(only allows overrides from program folder).
