[NES]: Unknown operator S in Gimmik(U) and Mr.Gimmik(EU) #29

Closed ghost closed 6 years ago

ghost commented 6 years ago

Permission to hijack this repo, since i dont know of a place for retroachievement issues for retroarch :D

Mr.Gimmik and Gimmik will show .[ERROR] [CHEEVOS]: Unknown operator S. multiple times. Not sure if this can be replicated in standalone ranesas I dont have windows installed.

leiradel commented 6 years ago

Thanks for the report, this looks like an issue with the cheevos implementation in RetroArch. Can you add a link to the games' pages in Retro Achievements?

I confirm that. Here is the grep CHEEVO of the log:

GameDragon2k commented 6 years ago

The S element represents an Alt Group. In the case of Gimmick, there are 5 achievements that use alt groups.

Edit: To verify that those achievements I listed are the erroneous ones, I temporarily removed them from the set. The Unknown operator S message didn't appear after that.

I'm working on this right now, can anyone provide me with a savestate just before one of the cheevos listed by @GameDragon2k while I debug the parser? Any NES core compatible with RetroAchievements will do. Thanks.

leiradel commented 6 years ago

Hm, I can't repo it. The log doesn't show any parsing error messages, nor a breakpoint in the line where the message is generated hits.

leiradel commented 6 years ago

Maybe there had been a glitch somewhere, I dunno. Are the cheevos listed by @GameDragon2k working?

ghost commented 6 years ago

verifying, but i think the cheevos is inconsistent. (pink fireball)

ghost commented 6 years ago

Gimmick! (Japan)(PinkFireball).state.tar.gz Here is pink fireball cheevos. not sure why, but you need to pick that "thing" twice. pick it once, then die and pick it again.

leiradel commented 6 years ago

Is the behavior the same in the official emulator?

not using windows atm, so not sure.

meleu commented 6 years ago

I'm not getting those messages anymore.

I talked with @GameDragon2k and he said that he reuploaded those cheevos that use the Alt group.

Apparently this was enough to "fix" those messages.

@retro-wertz I'm closing this issue, but feel free to reopen if you feel that the problem isn't solved on your end.

leiradel commented 6 years ago

I'd like to confirm if what @retro-wertz said about having to pick up the pink fireball twice to trigger the cheevo also happens in the official emulator though. Maybe it should stay opened until then?

meleu commented 6 years ago

I got that pink fireball with no issues. Got only once and it was enough to trigger. I'll test it again and if it happens I reopen this.

meleu commented 6 years ago

Jumping to conclusions: @leiradel no need to worry about RetroArch incompatibilities with this game. ;-)

Looks like some Gimmick cheevos are a little buggy...

I said in my previous post that I got the Pink Fireball only once and it works, but I died on the first enemies (I mean, I got the item only once, but it was after loosing one life).

I've made more tests and when I got the Pink Fireball the cheevo didn't pop, and then I died on purpose and got the item again. This time it triggered.

Another test: I got the Pink Fireball without losing a life and the cheevo didn't pop, but when I pressed down in the d-pad (to "equip" the item) the cheevo worked.

This behavior happens on RetroArch AND RANes.

I'll try to report it to the respective cheevos developer.
