      @meleu thank you. That makes seeing your achievements so much easier.

        Thank you Meleu!

        I found that changing the font to 48 was perfect for my eyes.

        Man, I must be getting old. :)

        One more thing please.

        If I would like my friends and family to also share in the Retroachievements feature, what would be the simplest way of logging in each time with a different profile?

        I would need a retroarch.cfg for each person, yes?

        What would be an easy way to select which one to use?

        Cheers.

          @Addison yeah man... you have to edit retroarch.cfg manually.

          I was working on way to manage retroachievements accounts on RetroPie, and then I've got more focused on implementing more features to the joystick-selection utility...

          Maybe later...

            Is retroachievements still in the very early beta stages for Super Nintendo?

            In Kirby's Dream Course, nothing registered for a hole in one, I also received an award for getting silver on a course when I had only gotten bronze.

            Super Mario World shows no achievements to be earned and in my Retroachievements history, it says that it's a bad rom. The same game works just fine on my PC along with earning achievements.

            Super Punchout! States that this game has no achievements to be earned.

              I'm using lr-armsnes, but in the Retroarch menu, it shows up as Pocketnes for some reason. Weird.

              I tried using lr-Snes9x-next but that didn't fair any different when it came to compatibility or recognizing achievements.

              All of my Snes emulator binaries are current so I'm not sure what else I can do on this.

                Yes. And for NES too.

                Megadrive is the only I have nothing to complain.

                I started a thread there to discuss these issues:

                    Is there anybody else here currently experiencing problems with the RetroAchievements?

                    It seems to be a RetroArch problem, beause I can't get it working even in my Android...

                      @meleu i will have to test. I had to setup my sd card after it got caught in an infinite boot loop so i havent verified since.

                        FYI, if you end up using Floobs awesome borders, have a read of this. I've tweaked the font size and position to fit the screen properly

                          Just gave it a quick go and it's triggering/reporting achievements with lr-fceumm on my 4.0.2 install.

                            @mediamogul everything seems to be fine now.
                            Are you used to use savestates? I see your achievements are all "softcore".

                              I use save states to practice difficult areas before I make a full run on allotted lives/single life. I've been meaning to write a script that would enable/disable states alongside achievements that I can quickly access and then reset my achievements to hardcore, but I haven't got around to it yet.

                                Hi.

                                Do you have a compatibility page that stays updated with Retroachievements?

                                I've been really hoping for Super Mario World and Super Punch Out to be supported.

                                Thanks.

                                  No. I tried to do it here based on my own experiences: http://retroachievements.org/viewtopic.php?t=3020
                                  But I didn't find enough time to keep it up to date...

                                  Super Mario World is surely supported! I earned some cheevos for this game. Keep in mind that you must use the same ROM as the achievements creator used.

                                      I use the default RetroPie 4 SNES emulator for raspi2: lr-snes9x-next.
                                      About the ROM version: I'm not at home now, but they usually talk about it in retroachievements.org, in the specific game achievements list page. ;-)

                                      edit: in my raspi1 I use lr-armsnes.
