    Testing with two files, both .nds and .zip of the same game. Both have valid hashes from RAHasher, matching a RA title - https://retroachievements.org/linkedhashes.php?g=9105

    PS C:\Emulation\tools\rahasher> .\rahasher 18 "Advance Wars - Days of Ruin (USA) (En,Fr,Es).nds"

    PS C:\Emulation\tools\rahasher> .\rahasher 18 "Advance Wars - Days of Ruin (USA) (En,Fr,Es).zip"

    Imported both into a new platform scraping against “Nintendo DS” platform, and neither were identified on import. Neither have <RetroachivementsHash> entries in the platform.xml, suggesting that scanning wasn’t attempted. Also attenpted a manual achivements rescan of the platform with no results. Double-checked the badge is marked as visible.

    Thanks for the report this is a known issue related to this platform. Current code is incorrectly looking for the game in DSi platform. This will be resolved in the next beta release.
