  2. By default, SuccessStory will scan the default directories for achievements Untitled design (1)
  3. You can set custom paths if your achievements are stored elsewhere Untitled design

3. Refresh Your Games

After setting up, refresh your games to start tracking achievements:

  1. In Playnite, select all games (Ctrl+A)
  2. Right-click > SuccessStory > Refresh Data
  3. Wait for the refresh to complete

4. Force Steam AppID (When Needed)

If a game shows no achievements (not even 0/X), you might need to set the AppID manually:

In this case:

  1. Right-click the game
  2. Select SuccessStory > Force Steam AppID
  3. Enter the correct Steam AppID
  4. Refresh the game data

Troubleshooting

  • If achievements don't appear after refresh, check if:

    • You need to use Force Steam AppID
    • The game supports achievements on Steam.
    • Your achievement files are in the correct location

  • For custom achievement paths:

    • Ensure the folder contains valid achievement data
    • Verify the emulator is supported
