Usage

1. Dump the version 4.0.0 RomFS of Kirby Star Allies. Yuzu or the nxdumptool homebrew application are the easiest ways to do so.
2. Launch the program and either click the elipses (...) button to select the RomFS folder or enter the path manually. This folder must contain gfx, map, and mint. This directory is saved in Config.xml when the program exits and is automatically loaded when the program opens.
3. Mess with the program's options and click the Randomize button at the bottom of the program. This will take a small bit of time to complete. When this has completed, the files are outputted to OutFiles\seed_<seed>, already formatted for use with LayeredFS with Atmosphère, Yuzu, or Ryujinx.

Seeds can be full numbers from 0 to 4,294,967,295, hexadecimal numbers from 0 to FFFFFFF or text strings such as "Super_Mario 64".
