Hello all!! I am a proud lifetime purchaser of LaunchBox and after messing with it for 2 weeks now, I have only come across one issue, which should indicate how great of a program it is! I am using DEmul in LaunchBox so that I may play some of my favorites like House of the Dead 2, Marvel vs Capcom 2, etc on my MAME cabinet. However, there is a very weird issue. I am not sure if it is a glitch or what. If I enter DEmul by double clicking the executable and running the games that way, games save just fine. A good example of a game that needs to save is Marvel vs Capcom 2, because you don't want to lose the experience/unlocked characters every time you exit the game. However, if you use LaunchBox, that is exactly what happens. For whatever reason, when launching any Naomi/DEmul games with Launchbox, the NVRAM file is never written/updated. Only when Demul is opened normally in Windows will it save the NVRAM file progress. I am using the latest version of LaunchBox with the latest version of DCEmul in a Windows 10 environment if it helps! Does anybody know what is going on? I saw one other member here complain about this but there wasn't any fix posted. Any advice to this very strange issue would be greatly appreciated!

I apologize, because I know this has been asked before, but I can't seem to find the info again. I have MAME 0.188 and I'm trying to get the high scores to save, but I'm unable too. Inside my plugins folder, I have a high score folder with hiscore.dat in it also. I've also gone into my .ini folder and then into mame.ini and updated the plugin section by changing plugins to 1 and beneath that plugin to "hiscore", but it doesn't seem to work. Also, I've seen people mention changing the setting in the plugin.ini file, but I do not have that file. Could this be my problem as to why high scores aren't being saved? I understand that the plugin.ini is supposed to be created by some action, but for some reason it isn't,, so is there somewhere I could go to download it? Thanks for the help.
