Note: This feature depends on the implementation of the following feature in order to be possible: Add RetroAchievements Game Page ID to LaunchBox Games Database
📋 Summary
Enable users to audit their LaunchBox library by identifying games that have a RetroAchievements set available, but where their local ROM does not match the required hash to unlock achievements.
🎯 Feature Overview
Add functionality to flag games that are eligible for RetroAchievements but are currently not compatible due to a mismatched hash. This could appear as a new badge variant (e.g. a slashed achievement icon), a playlist filter option, or be included in audit/export tools.
🛠 Example Use Case
A user scans their library and sees badges showing which games could support RetroAchievements but currently don’t because of incorrect or outdated ROMs.
They filter or create a playlist of these titles and update the ROMs accordingly to gain compatibility.
Users avoid the frustration of launching games expecting achievements, only to find none are loading.
📦 Benefits
Helps users bring their library into full compatibility with RetroAchievements.
Improves transparency of which games need attention or updated ROMs.
Supports achievement-focused collectors and players who want to “complete” their setup.
