@zerojay @hansolo77 I confirmed the problem with the megadrive hash library was on the server's end and it was already fixed. Could you guys please try again and report back if you still have problems?

Looks fixed to me now, thanks.

Awesome! I'll give it a shot.

Hey guys, would you like to see the achievement badge popping on the (bottom of the) screen when you earn an achievement?

There's a feature request about it on the RetroArch's issue tracker, and it also have a bounty for the developer who implement this feature.

I'm posting about it here because there's a developer trying to do it, then if you guys would like to encourage them you can increase the bounty. It's kind of a way to cheer and say "yeah! go ahead dude!" or maybe a more concrete "thanks in advance" :P

You can increase the bounty here at bountysource.com.

(I hope it's not considered spam 🙏)

Just wanted to thank @meleu for this guide and thanks for keeping me up all freaking night getting silly achievements on my pi. Initially, I had no intention of doing the cheevos but then while playing retroarch my Vita last night I thought, why not. And now I logged into my pi with my account and I can’t stop. Thanks.

@celly hey dude, don't forget to try out the games I've worked on. Check the list here:

That's how it starts. The games you played as a kid you thought you were great at. Then they invented this, and you find out your not so good. Then you start cheevo hunting playing games you never played before. It's really opened up the world of retro gaming for me.

@meleu Awesome! I’ll be sure give em a try.

@hansolo77 you nailed it man. Went through a few Tetris games last night making that cheevos. Addicting! Made my pi fun again. And being able to use my login on other devices, like my Vita with RetoArch really is awesome.

Thank you very much for this awesome idea.
"Copy all ROMs that have cheevos to a directory."
Can we have a option to move the "cheevonated" (cheevolized? :D) roms to another folder?
And add Cheevos requirements on the cheevos screen?
