Hint Systems

The randomizer community has come up with several hint systems. Each has its own page with more detailed information.

• Spoiler

There is also a additional Progression Hints mode that modifies the way several of the hint systems work.

How do I use hints?

When choosing options for generating a seed, choose which hint system to use on the Hints tab. Once generated, your seed zip file can be loaded into the KH2 Tracker either by dragging the seed zip file onto the tracker window, or by choosing Load KH2Randomizer Seed from the menu and browsing to the seed zip file.

Common Settings

There are some settings common between many of the hint systems.

Abilities in Journal Reports

If enabled, Ansem Reports in Jiminy’s Journal reveal the locations of many useful abilities.

• Off - No ability locations are revealed.
• World of Ability - Ansem Reports in the Journal reveal which world contains each hinted ability. For example, “Berserk Charge is in Olympus Coliseum.”
• Exact Location - Ansem Reports in the Journal reveal the exact location of each hinted ability. For example, “Berserk Charge is at Olympus Coliseum - Urns.”
