Hi,
Something appears corrupt but I’m not sure what I need to do to resolve the issue.
Not all of my emulators have updated with the games that have retro achievements. For example, all N64 and NES games show the icon indicating which games have available achievements. However, Dreamcast doesn’t show any game that has achievements available. Even though if I play Dreamcast games it will tell me I’m logged into to retro achievements and how many achievements I have for that specific game. Also, if I complete the steps to unlock an achievement it will indicate the achievement has been obtained.
To try and resolve I disabled retro achievements in retro bat. Exited then went back in and logged in. Retrobat then starts scanning the Dreamcast game list for games with achievements but crashes on first game.

Anyone know anything I can try?

Hello (word usually placed at the beginning of a sentence...)

Have you check with the rétroactivement website that your dumps are correct?

Yeah, the dumps are fine. Everything was working until something happened with my controller config. Due to this I deleted some files from the emulation station folder to resolve it, But now I’m having the achievement issues.
I’ve today manually updated to the most up to date version of retrobat as using the kinhank drive front end was saying no updates available. I still can’t update Dreamcast achievement list. It still crashes.
PS Sorry if I appeared rude. I had a few too many drinks last night trying to sort this.

Sorry, but we don't support Reseller build.
Ask them for support.

Thanks for the help!
What difference is the fact I’ve bought the build?

You know that RetroBat is free, and all the team spend an huge amount of their free time to share the best emulation solution possible ? Whereas your seller just pack it with roms and bios on an HDD, and make money with it.
This is for deontological reason.

Furthermore, we know the version we provide, and the way it should works. With all others builds, we can't know what have been change, which settings have been locked and how it can have an impact over the way it should work.

Purchasing this kind of product is killing the project.

The issue is that we do not know the changes performed by these sellers, so we cannot give any support for these builds.

i agree resellers suck big time.

you can try to delete the gamelist.xml in your dreamcast directory and then start retrobat and let emulation station create a new one. If that doesnt work you should check with the loser who sold you it.
