so i made it to the second world just now and i took note of a couple of achievements that activated at the wrong spots, figured we could nip it early :)

Coo the Owl (2)

and

Kine the Fish (2)

activated when i got on Rick instead of

Rick the Hamster (1)

which actually didn't activate at all.
so far that's it!

Thanks for making these cheevos, btw! Looking forward to them!

I fixed the animal achievements.

awesome, thanks for doing so :)

alright, so i played up to iceberg and a number of achievements didn't activate for me, they are as follows:

Defeat Nruff (10)

Defeat Sweet Stuff (10)

Rainbow Drop #1 (5)

Rainbow Drop #2 (10)

Rainbow Drop #3 (10)

Okay, I fixed the Defeat Nruff and Sweet Stuff achievements at least, thanks for letting me know.

The animal friends and those boss achievements were messed up because the description of the achievement originally had the : symbol in it, which totally messed up the achievement in weird ways (saying the author is blank instead of trainerabu and constantly having the wrong badge icon, and copying the achievement normally didn't fix the author being blank.)

I had to keep copying/pasting into MS-paint a screenshot of the values I had when the achievements were messed up with the : symbol, and I messed up a lot of values when trying to jot down what was in MS-paint when re-creating them. Bonkers.

no problem, i'll run through and grab them here shortly. ahh, i've heard of a similar issue, the other was "!", that's really odd though that it did that.

alright, so this i came upon next: rainbow disc 1 and 2 unlocked, but rainbow disc 3 did as well as soon as the third island opened up before i even got to explore it. boss achievements working thus far, however!

edit: defeat sweet stuff unlocked for me just now ^_^ think i'm gonna call it a night here and then finish it tomorrow. thanks again for all your hard work!

I've noticed if you start an achievement title with !, like, before any alphanumerics, it wonks out that same way. Achievement has to be renamed and saved without the !, then it can be re-added.
It seems to work fine in the first place if you use a ! at the end.
And yeah, it hates colons.

I fixed the rainbow disc 3 issue. Thanks for reporting all the issues.

By the way, anyone, until I upload the Rainbow Disc #7 achievement, I would get the Dark Castle rainbow disc last.

and thank yous for fixing it :) i'll be continuing play today, if i come across anything else, i'll certainly let you know.

got every achievement available and everything worked okay. thanks for all you've done thus far.

When I got rainbow disc #2, #1 unlocked as well even though I didn't get it yet.

Looked it over quick, it appears they're both coded identically. Disc 1 should be looking at Bit 0, but both are looking at Bit 1.
