I’m not sure if this is the right place to post this, or if there even IS a place to post it…
But with the Retroachievements stuff… Why do only certain emulators work? Like, achievements work with FCEU, but not Nestopia… can someone explain why this is?
The Retroachievements hooks have to be added on a core-by-core basis because they work by monitoring RAM values, and that isn’t portable across emus.
retroachievements not work
my lakka x86_64 2.1 RC 4 - not work any achievements
i use correct emulators downloaded from nightlies
games are scanned by CRC and detected in rdb database as named game roms
i try fceumm contra and mario , nothing show in list
lakka 2.1 RC4 dont have news topic on lakka web , its only in repository
work retroachievements in version 2.0 official download lakka method ?
Does this mean they are also different across architectures, even for the same core?.. so is it possible that a core has achievements in a platform (say… 32 bit Windows) but not in another (say… Android ARM)?
Does this mean each achievement for each game has to have different hooks for each of the different cores (and possibly different platforms)? Or the achievement just indicates a “standard” memory address from the actual emulated hardware and it’s each core’s job to match that “emulated” address with the real one in the host?
Another question: is it mandatory to have an internet connection active for the achievements to be detected? In platforms like PSP, for example, it might not be easy to have a wifi connection if you use it for playing on the go, would the hooks be stored locally and the achievements kept while offline? or the only way to have them register is being online while you play?
