Still occuring in v40.

Is the issue still there after updating to v40?

Yes.

Which game for example? I confirm it works for me (v41-dev, but I don't think anything changed since v40 on that)

[daze507]

Well, Streets of Rage for instance. Note that the achievements are working as intended, it's just that you cannot see them displayed in the menu (same goes for Gamecube).

Gamecube is a different (known) issue. I can't repro here, I tried grouping/ungrouping Genesis with Sega 32X, and I still have the achievements shown, and the menu available. I installed Artflix theme, still have the RetroAchievements menu too. You must have enabled an option that puts it in this state, but I can't find out which one. Try with a fresh USB key and stock Batocera installed, and see which option gets you there.

I may have done something but no idea why to be honest. It's not a big deal but I thought it was worth mentioning here. Two things that I have noted, when I am indexing the system for RA, making sure all systems are checked, in the upper right corner I can see all the system being processed one after the other except the mega drive one, so it seems that for some reason Batocera is not indexing the game on this specific system despite being checked. Another thing, on the RA main menu (the one that you can display optionally), I can see the [Genesis/Mega Drive] achievements, but they are greyed out, again same as the GameCube ones. The achievements of all the other systems are displayed in a white font.

Is the GameCube games format in .rvz? If yes then this is a common issue with all

for Sega Megadrive try to backup or delete these 2 folders or files then restart and try again

batocera.conf files located in share\system

retroarch and dolphin-emu folders located in share\system\configs

[daze507]

Yes but game format for Megadrive are .md I did that, to no avail, will see in the next version.
