Crystalis (NES) - problems with the level cheevos #28

Closed meleu closed 6 years ago

meleu commented 6 years ago

@leiradel I've found a problem in Crystalis (NES). I reached the level 2 and the related cheevo didn't pop up (Ding!). Playing with fceumm.

I've tested in RANes and the cheevo works fine.

Here is a savestate (saved with RetroArch/fceumm) to let you check (you just have to kill that blue thing and you'll level up): Crystalis (USA).state.zip

By the way, there's another user on the game wall saying:

Hm with QuickNES I'm not able to get the level achievements, makes me a bit sad sniff

Please, let me know if you need more info.

leiradel commented 6 years ago

Is it too much trouble if I ask you to try with a different core?

meleu commented 6 years ago

Not really. You mean QuickNES, right? I only know fceumm, QuickNES and Nestopia. And AFAIK Nestopia doesn't support cheevos.

leiradel commented 6 years ago

That's correct.

leiradel commented 6 years ago

If you can make a savegame just before the achievement I appreciate. The FCEUmm savegame isn't working.

meleu commented 6 years ago

I'll try it soon. I'm at work now but I think I can try it on my PS Vita when things go calmer :-). Probably in an hour or 2. If you are bored and with free time and wanna try it, it's not very hard/time consuming:

  1. start the game
  2. go left and you'll be in a village.
  3. go up and enter in the first house, the guy will give you some money ($100).
  4. go to the other house at the top and the another guy will give you a sword.
  5. press select and equip with the sword.
  6. go down to the armor store and buy an armor.
  7. equip with the armor
  8. go north, to the forest, out of town and kill 30 enemies (you'll need to go back to the village and immediately go back to the forest some times to make the enemies appear again).
  9. after killing 30 enemies you'll be on level 2. The achievement should pop up at this time.

BTW, I tried to talk to you on the discord server but it seems to be down...

@leiradel

The FCEUmm savegame isn't working.

Not sure it it's the case, but... The save state I linked above is zipped and you need to unzip it. I did it to attach the file in the issue comment. 😅

meleu commented 6 years ago

Ooops! My instructions to get the sword were wrong! Sorry, I've edited that post.

Anyway, I'm trying to generate a savestate right now. ;-)

meleu commented 6 years ago

@leiradel weird... I've just tried to reproduce the issue on Android/RetroArch/fceumm and it worked fine! 😕

The problem I reported in the OP was on PS Vita/RetroArch/fceumm (sorry, I forgot to mention it was on PS Vita). I'll try on this platform again and report back.

EDIT WTF?!?! I'm more confused now!!

I've reseted the cheevo and tried on Android/RetroArch/fceumm again AND IT DID NOT WORK! There's something really strange happening with this game...
