Retro Achievements HUD 6.6

Loving the clear logo for the games..

 

I've tested this for about an hour now and it's mostly great. There are 2 problems I've found so far though.

 

1 - The plugin seems to be quite unstable. LB/BB has crashed a few times while using it or when exiting LB/BB. I have changed the DPI settings as instructed but still crashes sometimes.

2 - Plugin doesn't work with multiset (yet, hopefully).

 

There was a 3rd problem which is the mouse cursor is hidden if using the plugin with BB but I managed to fix that by enabling "Enable Mouse" and disabling "Hide Mouse Cursor when Not in Use" in BB->Options->Mouse settings.

Awesome work otherwise.

Thanks. I honestly have not used it much with BB so any feedback on that is appreciated. I am not sure I know what Multiset is. You are correct with the mouse settings, Those have to set in BB. I will look to see if I can make it show when moved to that screen,

So, multiset is a new feature on RA where you can unlock base sets and subsets at the same time by using only the base rom (or subset-patched rom for Specialty Subsets) instead of playing a different rom per set. Oh another problem I found is the plugin in it's current state can't tell if the unlocked achievements are hardcore or softcore unlocked. So as you can see in the picture, I have unlocked all the achievements in Hardcore except for "THE MAN" which I have unlocked in Softcore.

AzgoRAth. I am looking into the multiset now. I have not used that feature but it looks really cool. I will see how that might be added.

I believe we will be able to see if it is a softcore or hardcore and add a way to tell which it is. This is great feedback and this is my first plugin. I am not a programmer, I mow grass for a living. LOL

I do love playing Achievements so I would like to make this a cool tool. I got tired of having RA always open. I will post back as soon as get this multiset working in Retroarch. Then we can see about adding it.

 

I really like this, but is there a way to minimize it? When I'm playing a game its not a big deal, but it starts with LB sometimes there might be a window on that monitor I need to get to, and I need to just close LB to do it. 

Sorry Im just seeing this. You can click on the HUD screen and hit 5 and 1 keys at the same time and it will close the screen. It will come back when you launch a game or restart LB. 

 

I am Downloading right now, If i can remember I will write a review, the fact that It seems to be a second monitor plugin sounds fucking amazing and peak, cheers mate. 

I have a very display dense environment and cant get this to work reliably, its always only ever partially on screen no matter my dpi settings are and the monitor indexing doesn't line up either.



and that isn't even the correct display whatsoever. With indexing being wildly wrong I'm going by resolution to pick my display which narrows it down to two 1080 displays with 150% scaling but I get the same results regardless.

Are you running multiple monitors?

Sorta yea.... here is a picture from before I moved homes. Now I have a banner display above the center 85" (Banners), I upgraded the L/R 32"s to 75"s (Watching videos and compute [split four ways]), moved the 32"s up and wall mounted them (Spinning clear logos), replaced the sub monitor with an ultrawide (control maps, I wish they showed the buttons im pressing), The case display is still the same (Box Art), the two 10" tablets are still the same (Clear logos), the 2 desk phones are still the same (Title Screen/Fan Art), The speaker bar area is hard to see in this picture and only shows the kinect but to the left and right of that are now a 6.5" phone (marquees), behind me is a vertical monitor (Box Art), To my right on the wall is supposed to my a map display but I am still setting it up so it is mostly fan art, to my left is a round android display showing clear logos that I eventually want to be custom watch faces, also to my left on a table is a crt but it isn't hooked up, I want it to display game trailers or gameplay videos.

I also have all the divoom stuff (pixoo64, tivvoo, dittoo, times gate (5 displays [Heart rate, pc monitor, digital clock, follower counts, and weather]), and a times frame (which is beautiful in person but horrrrrrrrendous on camera)) I don't count any of these displays though since it isn't tied to launchbox selections.... yet.

I also want to add analouge led backed gauges on my desk for hp, mp, and stamina in games that have them.

I have the full icue ecosystem including an icue nexus, I might eventually swap my k100 for the new galleon steamdeck keyboard but my current keyboard is a beast so why bother.

This picture doesn't do it justice but I have vastly expanded my lighting, You can see the govee T2 which controls a single light strip and 5 extra govee devices, I still have that but now i also have an  ai syncbox2 which controlls 10+1 lights. I can also bottom mount the T2 and add the new T3. I don't have room for them but I also realllllly like floura plant shapped lights. I also have the dining, sink, and kitchen nook themed too. I have an xmas tree in the nook I keep up, its govee to, thats a winter themed area, the kitchen is green/jungle themed, the dining is under the water themed, and the hallway, dining closet, and laundry room i have multicolored cave aurora themed. Most of the time I have everything in regular lighting mode (as pictured) or fireplace mode. There is also a govee curtain light and bird cage to my right for my parrot, havent been able to integrate it. I only work on this stuff when and as I can. As you can imagine I probally spend more time troubleshooting that anything else.

I want to add an audio radar bc I have a toddler and dont want to wake her up at night (the little tv side lights that show where noises come from)

I will eventually add reactive sound leds

I need to eventually buy a full pixelcade system, expensive and I have to build infrastructure to mount it all especially the doflinx enabled pixelcade pulse

which brings me to this, I want to have the achievement hud on one of the 32"s and discord on the other, the two tablets look just fine for clear logos.

I guessssss you can count my kobo color too since I use the second screen plugin on that which gives me all the media gribbles (manuals, pictures, music, strat guides, etc). The second screen plugin isn't on the downloads page anymore though.

I can still also integrate home assistant and LEDblinkly but I have no friggin idea what and where to add led blinkly devices

Apologies for the long reply and bad grammar/spelling. 😅😅😅
