I was able to fix my Bubble Bobble issue with the fix given a few posts back in this thread. I also noticed that you deleted a glitched hiscore a few posts ago when someone alerted you. I've seen a lot of them, most of the time 5,555,555 types, but also scores an order of magnitude better than the usual best players at certain types of games, like Varorav will be number three with a seven-digit score and there will be two scores of over 1 billion on a game that clearly does not have 1 billion points in it. Do we just report glitched scores to you or somewhere else? You can report them here. I don't go through and remove them often, because I just don't have the time to do it on a regular basis. But I'll probably get around to doing it eventually if you can post it in this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juri85 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 hi @Jason Carr I have a problem with bubble bobble version 0.1 japan not loading high scores in the Launchbox database. this does not happen for other supported games like 1942, 1943, Tapper, Asteroids, Galaga ... I attach the Launchbox log file and the .hi file (nvram is not created by the romset) the romset mame version is 0.247 of 08/31/2022 and the mame version is 0.247Debug 2022-09-21 04-56-31 PM.logbublbobl.hi Thank you.

I get it you can't edit everything by your self, but is there a way for us to help you? I don't know how popular the Community Leaderboard are but I love it. If it would be possible I would help you... hehe I can do more than just translate Launchbox for the "swedish" users 🪂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, unfortunately for us to open them up requires some development. The only thing we have right now is direct access to the database, which we definitely can't share with anyone. We'll be working on some admin tools here soon that should really help. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe35car Posted November 25, 2022 Share Posted November 25, 2022 (edited) Hello, Need some help. I made a copy of my Launchbox setup to someone and he has his own forever license but for some reason it shows my name joe35car but his initials GAB. Look like this in Robotron (joe35car - GAB). How do we fix this? He is also a member here. Thanks Edited November 25, 2022 by Joe35car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trace Katral Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Scores not posting all of a sudden. So I've read through the forums and applied all recommendations. Nothing is being posted to the LeaderBoards. I just scored a high score and here is the Log file. Any recommendations? Im at a loss.

No need to install the plugin, just follow the instructions starting from "Setting up MAME to save high scores:" https://forums.launchbox-app.com/files/file/2212-view-mame-high-scores-in-game-details-a-plugin-for-launchboxbigbox/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trace Katral Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 HEY IT WORKS! I just posted a highscore on the leaderboards! FINALLY! Thank you so much. BTW I placed the Folder in the Launchbox plugin folder. Got a top score on a high score supported game and it did not post. But then I copied the DLL and placed it into the Launchbox plugin folder and it worked. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elhora Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 No more Mame High Score is uploading. I did a fresh install of Mame/Launchbox (latest version for both), i followed the instruction on this page : https://forums.launchbox-app.com/files/file/2212-view-mame-high-scores-in-game-details-a-plugin-for-launchboxbigbox/ But no His-score is uploaded... Then i checked on my Arcade Cabinet (latest version of Launchbox but Mame version 0.240) and it's the same : no more hi-score uploaded (it was previously upaloaded without problem few monthjs ago when i was using it...) i tried 3 or 4 games that i used to have hiscores when playing them but none work. Really have no idea why all of a sudden nothing works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However I just beat my Tetris high score and it did not update. I also tried a new game that I never played before scored 28,560, and the lowest score posted was 1,040. Did not post. It was working fine now suddenly stopped. I'm beginning to think it's a server issue. I changed nothing on my system, nothing was updated. It just stops working. It's a shame because highscore chasing is the reason I got Launchbox. Edited April 12, 2023 by Trace Katral Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a highscore and it posted! I don't know if what I did helped but it's working now. By the way Alien Arena is an interesting game. It has no sound though.

That 3rd Party plugin in completely different than the built in HiScore system for this thread that LB has. So if you are having issues with that plugin in you need to post in that thread. 2 hours ago, Trace Katral said: So I made BigBox run as administrator every time it starts.

Trace Katral Posted April 12, 2023 Share Posted April 12, 2023 Oh, thanks. I did not any of that. So I have some questions. 1. So where is that 3rd party plugin posting? 2. Also so why are the highscores not posting suddenly? Is it a server issue? 3 How can I wipe out my scores and start over? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andyco47 Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 high scores are not right sum high scores were done befor you did the anti cheat system but the scores are still there. they need to be reset please cus there is no point in playing a game when the high score wos done befor you could change the dip switches on games like phoenix with a high of 300.000 that bull.
