Description

First and foremost consider this:

  • Only RetroArch bugs should be filed here. Not core bugs or game bugs
  • This is not a forum or a help section, this is strictly developer oriented

Description

while not a bug i feel like it may be more intuitive to have the achievments on/off setting and hardcore on/off setting from settings > achievments to also be mirrored to settings > user > accounts > retroachievments, so that you may get started with achievments with only one menu no matter which of the two you start in

  • RetroArch: 1.9.8 nightly 52db47d0

Research direction

Start by locating the settings > achievements controls and the settings > user > accounts > retroachievements menu entry points in RetroArch. Compare how the achievements and hardcore toggles are exposed in each menu. Done means both menus provide the same settings and users can begin configuring achievements from either location.
