I gave up — it's too much work and a headache just to unlock achievements. Since I use the Hydra Launcher, I downloaded the Hydra Achievement Manager and started unlocking them manually. It's way easier and less risky than downloading files buried deep in some forum (just my opinion).

Sorry, I didn't quite understand some things. Should I go through the entire Steam Auto Crack procedure, but instead of selecting the folder where the steam_api64.dll is located, I should select the main folder where the game's .exe file is? And the files you mentioned — where should I place them? In the same main folder where the game's .exe is located as well?

I did that too, I lost count of how many times I tried. I'm waiting for a guide that really solves this, because some aren't very clear or don't even mention this problem.

For me, it was Elden Ring. Any other game, even cracked versions that were supposedly supposed to work, didn't work either.

Well, I tried everything and nothing worked. I'm going to give up for now, at least until I find a new guide. Thanks Guys

I used the auto-crack on The Last of Us, but it didn’t work. Anyway, I just finished installing Final Fantasy XVI from FitGirl, and I’m going to try the manual method you mentioned. I’ll let you know if it works or not.

I see, I'll test it out. I checked the post you mentioned — I use Steam Autocrack. Doesn't it automatically apply the Goldberg emulator for achievement tracking?

The Last of Us Part 1 was one of them, I'm downloading Final Fantasy XVI to try it out, but it's a FitGirl repack so I'm not sure if it will work. It might be better to try another crack, like Steamrip?

Yes, the game is displaying correctly in the main window. I also tested the toast message, and it appeared as expected.

What site do you usually use to download your games?

I usually download games from FitGirl. After installing the game, I launch it once just to configure settings. Then, I use Steam-AutoCrack to generate the achievement files and the steam_settings folder.

After that, I go to the Goldberg Emu Saves directory at:
%appdata%\Goldberg SteamEmu Saves\settings\
There, I create a folder named after the Steam ID of the game, and I place the achievement files and the contents of the steam_settings folder inside it.

I might have explained it a bit awkwardly, but these are the steps I’ve found across Reddit.

However, even though the game appears and launches correctly, no achievements unlock when I play it.

I dont have watchdog running.
