Hi! Long time premium user here, pretty much first time posting.
I love the retroachievements integration in LaunchBox/BigBox, but after playing around with it a little bit, I came to the conclusion that the fuzzy matching between LB and RA is just not working out. Either some games are confused for others, or are not displaying at all due to my titles not matching the RA titles.
Could we do better? Two things come to mind:
A) Match on CRC32 (which RA is using), or
B) Give us a hook to provide the matching ourselves (i.e.: let us add an a RetroAchievements ID on the game details to override the fuzzy matching),
Or is there a hook already that I could use to write my own matching code?
I'll be honest -- currently I can't make use of the feature because the miss-matching is bad enough that I find it embarassing (which is my problem -- I'll give you that). I get the "it just works-ish" approach that is currently implemented, and I'm not suggesting it goes away, but for those of us who are "ocd-ing all over our collection" and wouldn't mind putting in the effort, an alternative solution would be nice.
I tried reporting this issue before on bitbucket but it didn't get any attention. Surely I'm not the only one annoyed by this?
Otherwise I absolutely love this product. Please keep up the good work!
