A video tutorial of setting up MMR is found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4woEtyg7GyM
Currently the UI is only available on windows, it is broken in wine. The CLI version works if you install dotnet and run the CLI as “dotnet MMR.CLI.dll -input <MM.z64> [-seed seed]” but modifying the settings means modifying the settings.json by hand. A replacement webui is in development which will supply a UI on all platforms.
Additional information on every feature of MMR is available by reading the tooltip shown by hovering the mouse over the option, or reading the detailed manual by pressing F1, or visiting the help menu.
MMR has no unique emulator requirements, you can play a randomized rom with any method that allows you to play a MM rom. MMR roms work on N64 emulators, they can be played on N64 hardware with everdrive and similar flashcard technology, and they can be played on Wii Virtual Console, MMR will even convert the randomized rom to a wad for you.
Known Quirks of MMR
In vanilla MM, you use [Garo’s Mask] to convince the ghost to summon a tree and grant you Ikana valley access, but in vanilla MM, he will also accept you wearing a [Gibdo Mask] and grant you Ikana access. Most people don’t know this because you get the Gibdo mask after getting access to the soaring owl and you never need to travel east up that cliff again if you don’t want to, but MMR accepts both masks as giving you access.
There is a hidden (bomb-able) grotto on the ramp steppe path to get to goron racetrack. If you do not have goron you can still get up there: There is a scarecrow near the boulder blocking the racetrack. Call it out using the Scarecrow song, then use the Hookshot.
You will sometimes find milk in what appears to be a bottle, but it is only milk, and it will not give you a bottle. There is just no milk without a bottle model for us to use, unlike the gold dust and potions.
The Clocktown Great Fairy gives you two items in vanilla (magic as deku, GFMask as link) and in Rando she still gives two items, you have to visit her twice; once as link and once as any other race (deku/goron/zora). You can visit her twice on the same 3 day cycle, just leave her cave and transform then immediately visit her again to get the second item.
Unlike OOT, you can NOT have bombchus without a bomb bag.
Warnings
MMR has a feature that allows you to use Fierce Diety mask anywhere, which is fun to play, but is slightly dangerous. His body is too big and can get stuck in tunnels and doors, or wedged between ramps and walls. Play with him at your own risk. The same is true for playing as adult link.
MMR can randomize enemies on the overworld and in dungeons, which is fun to play, but is slightly dangerous. Enemizer currently ignores logic, which can lead to seeds being (rarely) unbeatable (bombs all being locked behind a beamos, enemies you can’t kill or move being in your way, ect). Play with enemizer at your own risk.
Do not mash the A button during the fish feeding cutscene, you can softlock (this is a vanilla MM bug). Pulling out the Ocarina immediately after Deku Playground day 3 can softlock the game. Carrying a dog and putting it down at the same time as talking to Mamamu Yan (the lady running the dog race) can softlock the game. Defeating Keeta and attempting to warp to Mountain Village without warping elsewhere or leaving the area (into Road to Ikana) crashes the game.
