I don't see any way for launchbox to handle a single game for both playing games that supports hiscores and retroachievements as the following issue is retroachievements = requires Retroarch cores that don't support hiscore Hiscore = Requires Mame64 that don't support achievements and the way launchbox is designed is that it looks at the default emulator and shows the information in the "game detail" box. so you cannot assign both mame64 and FBneo for a game and show both details. have anyone found a workaround for this issue? and for mame sets, how can i assign specific emulators for combined games. do i need to expand it first and assign, and then combine again?

its not a matter of know the command in advance. you would be surprised how easy it can be to modify xml and find tutorials, it don't require programming skills to do so. if you just keep tasks for modifying xml and renaming files. it should be that complicated. just had a task for trying to add stuff to the xml files, and that was complicated as some items can be nested. for my self i have done many modifications like rename the path for where the roms are as i changed storage. Powershell understands XML so you can browse like a folder structure.

I love that launchbox supports hiscore. And did a project myself for many years ago to update a website with score to compete with friends at work. one thing i miss, is when a game has many entries on a hi score, it would be great that launchbox could focus your name for which ranking you have instead of the need of scrolling to find you name on an all time score. also it would be great so add users to follow to have some sort of custom score list for those you compete against. one last part is that a wizard for setting up hiscore could help more to join. something that could verify if the mame i correct and if its able to find the hi folder. just some basic to help beginners.

just use Powershell the ini files are in xml and can easily be manipulated.

I am using an ARCADE 0.237 64 BITS NO NAG without problems. the thing is that you need to rename the exe file to Mame64.exe and it will work

one more important thing is that launchbox look at the EXE name, so if you download another mame version remember to rename it like mame64.exe otherwise the hiscores wont show up

i was able to get Mame Arcade 64 working, it was just a matter of renaming the exe to MAME64.exe and hiscores started to get shown within launchbox. i also tested some games that saves and updates.
