Are 19 alpha 1 test builds desired?

This is great, so happy to see this not held up by huge database upgrades Big Grin

Simple and effective, love it!

Great work

We've got a really cool feature in the works, something that's never been done in the emulation community!

For now, I've created test builds based on the v19 alpha 1 release of Matrix:

achievements?
Oh, it's pulling the progress from the gamesave?


RE: GSoC 2020 Savestate Manager - RockerC - 2020-09-09

"nikos is exploring Littleroot Town with 0 Badges and 1/202 Pokemon"

Ohhh!!!! Wonder if "Badges" means https://retroachievements.org integration?

Retro Achievements via RetroAchievements.org is available in later versions of RetroArch:

https://retroarch.com/?page=achievements

https://github.com/RetroAchievements

Kodi community leaderboard here we come?!

Presenting, test builds with the results of GSoC 2017 and GSoC 2020! https://github.com/garbear/xbmc/releases


GSoC 2020 adds RetroAchievements support:

Instead of implementing achievements, we use RetroAchievements to generate captions for savestates:

Ah, nice! Really hope that makes it into Kodi 19.x "Matrix" so it will attract more retro gaming nerds to the community! Big Grin

I could see RetroAchievements integration having the potential of becoming so much more someday Wink


RE: GSoC 2020 Savestate Manager - docwra - 2020-09-16

Yeh whats the plan on merging this? I love a good build but needs more public attention I think really.


RE: GSoC 2020 Savestate Manager - garbear - 2020-09-16

I'm hoping that the PRs are opened and merged during hacktoberfest, putting @vel0city and @NikosSiak closer to that t-shirt
