Leaderboards problem w/ retropie

[retroprogrammer]

@Vinz Did you follow this tutorial: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/RetroAchievements
or this one: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/RetroAchievements/

[retroprogrammer]

@Vinz and your WIFI and Ethernet are fine?

[Vinz]

Hi @retroprogrammer, I followed this: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/RetroAchievements and my WIFI works. I don't use Ethernet..

[retroprogrammer]

yep, and you setup a account on retro achievements site: http://retroachievements.org/

[Vinz]

Yes I created an account and added my credential in retroarch.cfg. In fact the retroachievements work...for example I tried different games and retroachievements work but Leaderboards don't.

[retroprogrammer]

you should add the line cheevos_verbose_enable = true in /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg to see if you successfully logged in and how many achievements you have unlocked

[retroprogrammer]

Have you played for long enough to get on a leader board?

[Vinz]

Yes, I have already added this line and give me the output I have already logged

[Vinz]

@retroprogrammer Yes for different games (i.e. mario kart 64, space invaders (gb))

[retroprogrammer]

did you play games for long after you setup retro achievements

[retroprogrammer]

and are the games you play supported my retro achievements

[Vinz]

@retroprogrammer about a total of four hours in three days. For example I made a time of about 1 minute and 53 seconds on the "Leaderboard: Luigi Raceway (Mario Kart 64)" but I don't see my name, whereas all the other retroachievements of this game work

[retroprogrammer]

@Vinz Maybe try a Ethernet cable?

[Vinz]

@retroprogrammer I could try, even if the router is very far from my retropie system

[retroprogrammer]

Yes see what happens :)

[Vinz]

@retroprogrammer I hope it works, even if it will be a temporary solution because I prefer WIFI :)
thank you so much, I will give you a feedback when I try your solution!

[Vinz]

@retroprogrammer Tried the ethernet but unfortunately the same result. Only retroachievements work, leaderboards don't

[retroprogrammer]

I am not sure any more

[Vinz]

@retroprogrammer thanks anyway for your precious and fast support. I hope to solve this problem because it would be so cool use that functionality. do you use retroachievements, and if yes leaderboards work to you?

[retroprogrammer]

@Vinz Just check the file /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch.cfg again to see if everything is there, then update Retropie through the setup script again and then see what happens?
