    i found that it's someting wrong with the game Blazing star. Other games are fine for MAME High Scores, but only blazing star has problem. the hiscore of this game is store in nvram, but it couldnt update nvram, no matter run by launchbox or run directly by mame. Theoretically, it will not upload any scores to the leaderboard, but it did one time. And you can check the leaderboard, so many guys' records are the same: 250000. Is it a bug of this game? Mame and romset 0.254

    i tried many times to run the game by mame directly, and found that it can update the nvram of blazing star occasionally, but it doesnt most of the time. It is irrelvant to bios.

    I spent a whole day to figure out the situation, and finally found something. You need to play twice continuously, then mame will update the nvram file data, but just the penultimate time, not the last one. That means, mame never saves the last time you play. So, if you just play one time to hit the hisocre then quick, nothing will be uploaded to the the LB Mame high score panel.

    Hi there...

    Blazing Star hiscores doesn’t work for me. Works for you?

    I can do the Hiscore, (just started playing it, 428.000 ish) but every time I do it, no entry in LB Mame Hiscore panel.

    Looking in MAME directories it shows that a saveram file is saved in NVram directory when leaving the game. But no blazstar.hi file in Hiscore directory is to be found. Other games do the right thing.

    Anybody knows what is up?

    Using LB 12.7 and MAME 0239

     

    the same error for me. The hiscore of this game is not saved in .hi file, but saved in nvram. Unfortunitely, mame couldnt update hiscore data in nvram most of the time. I think it is a bug of the game (or all the neogeo games),
