FYI, GreatStone is also switching it up to use the Issues section on Github (link above) instead of the spreadsheet. I'm updating the first post of this topic as well.

For anyone interested in contributing to the hi2txt project and adding more games to support high scores, see here: https://github.com/GreatStoneEx/hi2txt-xml GreatStone is now allowing contributors on Github. You can also download releases to update hi2txt and support more games. Just download hi2txt.zip from the Releases section on Github, and overwrite your LaunchBox\ThirdParty\hi2txt\hi2txt.zip file.

@Anaximandros Thanks. There are a few games that still report default scores.
-
Scores were reset because the community voted to reset them: We don't plan on doing that again.

BigBox crash while sitting idle doing attract mode

@MrSco Not sure if we've been through all this or not, but what theme(s) are you running? -
There really aren't all that many games that do this, so it really doesn't matter to me much at all. I've been surprised how much the topic has come up though.
-
Save states are disabled once you turn on uploading high scores. Unfortunately the pay-to-win games are just that: pay-to-win. You'd have to modify the games for them to behave any differently.
-
Hi @5thWolf, in order for the multiple discs badge to show, you must have multiple additional apps on the game with the disc number set.
-
Most likely you're not using an official version of MAME. Unfortunately it now requires either an official or a no-nag version of MAME. MAMEUI64 is no longer supported. We added some necessary anti-cheat mechanisms which unfortunately are not compatible with other versions.
-
What version of MAME are you using? I'm reporting this issue in the hi2txt issues list.
-
Lol, nevermind. Found it.
-
Oddly I'm not seeing any bogus scores posted for Nibbler. What's your gamer tag?
-
Thanks for letting us know.
-
Sadly that's not possible with MAME. Those particular arcade games were pay-to-win from the very beginning, unfortunately.
-
Yes, older platforms are covered very well. There are misses occasionally, but there are misses occasionally for the LaunchBox Games Database as well.

Hi @Ludecan, in order to download EmuMovies videos within LaunchBox, you need a paid EmuMovies account. You can still manually download the videos from the EmuMovies website though without a paid account.
-
My guess is that you have either keyboard mapping or a controller mapping set up to "Show LaunchBox", and maybe that's triggering. Something is running a copy of LaunchBox.exe or BigBox.exe, which is triggering that message. Can you check your bindings?
-
I must have missed including the updated XML in the hi2txt zip. If you update the XML, that should fix it.

Yeah, same for me.

MAMEUI64 does no longer work with 10.14. That was on purpose in order to prevent some forms of cheating. Our apologies for that; you will need an official version of MAME or MAME no-nag for the high scores to work going forward.
-
Deleting the .cfg files will reset them.
-
Yes, MAMEUI64 no longer works with 10.14. Our apologies, but the changes were important to prevent some types of cheating. You'll need an official version of MAME or MAME no-nag instead.
-
If you're not seeing or uploading any high scores, please note that we clamped down on cheating a bit for 10.14, and the high scores features require an official version of MAME in order to work. Let me know if you're using an official version of MAME and still can't get it to work.
-
They're still there. Are you using an official version of MAME?
