I have the SuccessStory plugin installed with RetroAchievements enabled. I want to go through Paper Mario 64 and get all the retro achievements for that game, but when I launch PM64 through Playnite, it won't properly load the Retro Achievements. If I close just the game, but not the emulator, then relaunch the game, RetraAchievements loads fine. With that in mind, I know nothing about scripting or even where to begin, so I don't even know if this will be possible or not, but is there a way to have Playnite launch JUST the emulator, and then run a script to specifically launch PM64 after that (or whatever other game I need to do this for)? Essentially what I have in mind is by delaying the launch of PM64 itself, it will fully load the Emulator, and then by running a script to launch the game afterwards, it will load the actual achievements for it. I have a short video I recorded showing what is supposed to happen when I launch the emulator, then launch the game, vs what happens when I just launch the game through playnite if it's needed to better understand whats happening.
