Andyman Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 Is there a full setup guide for this anywhere? I've followed the text in LB and on hi2txt and I'm getting nothing no matter what I do. I feel like I must be missing an essential step somewhere. Quote

I am curious because the last beta is embedding the last hi2txt release that should forbid this behavior. 10.14? As far as I know it's the latest version. Quote

Yeah that is the latest official release, your issue should have been fixed in the latest betas. you can either upgrade to that, or wait for the official release, there is no ETA on that yet though.

Snakeystew Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 Alas, the problem has occurred again - this time on Chase HQ, giving me a 101 billion score. I only got to the second boss. Can they be removed? Quote
Ateb Posted May 12, 2020 Posted May 12, 2020 I tried Hatris, never played it before. I think it trimmed a couple of zeros off. 13 is pretty terrible, although 1300 is not much better. lol Sorry, no logs for this one. Just reporting the issue. I am on latest beta. Quote

Sorry to bump, but I think this got lost in the posts that came right after. Any help is appreciated on this. Thank you! Quote

I actually got around 840,000 but didn't enter my name and exited the game. I think it needs fixing and my score removing Sorry for the delay on my responses in this thread; I've been busy trying to wrap up the 10.15 release. I went ahead and removed this score. It sounds like this issue should be fixed for the 10.15 release which just came out. On 5/12/2020 at 7:36 AM, Andyman said: Is there a full setup guide for this anywhere?

andyco47 Posted June 5, 2020 Posted June 5, 2020 wot happens if you use a different rom set for a rom. like rev 1 or rev 2 in game that people aint got then they can get hi score people should use same version to get hi score. Quote

A revision will have a different file name, so its a different game at that point. Quote

alnyden Posted June 9, 2020 Posted June 9, 2020 Hey guys, I need some help with my MAME hi-score situation. I did not realize dipswitch checking had been implemented. I went into the dipswitches for Berzerk, not to cheat but because sometimes I must to get past the rom check screen. Anyway, I started noticing the hi-scores weren't recording anymore. I read-up on the issue, and figured that was the reason. I've tried deleting the .cfg file to no avail. In addition to Bezerk, it seems no other games will update their scores anymore. If I've been placed on some kind of lockout for changing the dipswitch, is there anyway to reset this? Thanks! R Quote

rommaster Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 Should the scores upload after every time a game is quit regardless of if it is a personal high score or not? I presume this is how weekly, monthly, etc lists work. I've played Tapper & Timber a couple of times this week and score's aren't showing in any leader boards, the uploads seem pretty inconsistent.

The only way to get around that would be to remove all existing MAME high scores before starting up a game, and that's not really a good option. Quote
erling1000 Posted June 12, 2020 Posted June 12, 2020 Hi there. Just wanted to let you know there is a mistake in Boomer Rang'r Hiscores. Three people scored the enourmous / impossible score of 110,111,112 which clearly is a glitch somewhere - not pointing fingers ? Greetings Quote

Please enable debug logs in the LaunchBox options (see the first post of this thread). Then you can look in the log file to see what's happening. Quote
yourmovecr33p Posted June 17, 2020 Posted June 17, 2020 (edited) looks like a run i did on futari15.zip somehow duplicated the existing score. Had some other issues with the futari's, but that was i think before the last update. I'll post here if i come across it again. Good work guys, it's working great for the most part!
