3 Aug 2016 18:55		Hey, heads up, I'm not really sure where to put this, but I'm using LibRetro emulator cores (lr-fceumm) for most of my gameplay, and all of the Dracula's Remains and Crystal achievements triggered when the ROM booted the first time.
14 Apr 2017 10:24		Question: Do these achievements kick for the redacted version? It's a hack where this guy fixed all the minor things that made this such a bad game. Same game, just shifted the content so it was more playable
2 May 2017 14:58		So far I've been earning achievements fine on the redacted version.
11 Nov 2017 20:24		Improvement suggestions: If you get the best ending you should get all endings (since they are time based); Password protection (For no damage achievements like the Dracula one maybe acceptable); Some new achievements.
11 Nov 2017 20:30		New achievements suggestions: Complete the game without upgrading the whip; Reach level 1 before the 2nd day morning; Collect the 13 hidden books in one playtrough; Full inventory before Dracula; Reach level 6 (?); Collect 256 hearts (?);
27 May 2018 16:12		Whoa! A Belmont Legacy was a tough one , but finally i mastered it
27 Oct 2018 14:33		Redacted version was the best!
31 Oct 2018 5:53		Note: For 13 Raging Clues, Informed Traveler, and With All These Laurels It's Not As Hardy, make sure you don't cancel the text boxes so early that the box(es) itself (border) is/are entirely skipped.
31 Oct 2018 5:55		They all require the first exclusive value of the text/dialogue address to register, which shows up after the empty dialogue box opens entirely. I tested all 3 of these fine multiple times.
31 Oct 2018 6:03		Use the following MD5: 3979f4a48b98cc9aaa8d3964d4cf2b8a
31 Oct 2018 6:09		Note to devs/admins: please do not link any CV2 hacks to this set. I'm 99% sure ones with altered text/dialogue will not work with some of the new achievements. The FDS version will probably not work with those dialogue based achievements either.
31 Oct 2018 6:10		New ones have been promoted just in time for Halloween so enjoy everyone.
31 Oct 2018 6:20		**In addition to being done with the leather whip & having no items or bodyparts, Home Before Sundown must also be done deathless & at Level 0 (still pretty easy).
18 Nov 2018 22:51		Updated Rich Presence to include Simon's Level & hearts.
15 Mar 2020 9:27		Based on the current hash calculation method (which changed as of RANES v.15), the hash you should use for doing my achievements (don't know about the ones made by other devs) is 755f9086b0567243b3ce25cc8a6dfd17
15 Mar 2020 9:29		A bunch of my achievements do not work in the Mesen core in RetroArch. Please use RANES as they were made using that emulator with its memory mapping. They may work in FCEUmm in RAlibretro but I'm not 100% certain.
5 May 2020 9:24		All achievements worked perfectly with FCEUmm
2 Nov 2020 8:06		While people said previously it worked with the redacted version i couldn't manage to make it work with the redacted version, it simply doesn't show any achievements to obtain
15 Apr 2021 22:14		Greetings Atheistpanic, Mutawarrior, SirVG and JAM! Thank you for your time and effort making a set for this game. All achievements are working smoothly. I wish you all the best.
