So, did you try it again? Do you have any local records registered for script to publish? --- Quote ---Default settings should be used. --- End quote --- Default setting may differ from version to version, and also some people might not even pay attention to their DIP SWITCH setting unless it is specifically stated and clearly underlined as an important part for the competition rules. |

I have updated the first post with this info: Settings: Medium difficulty Extend 50K, 200K, 150K+ Lives: 3 This should be the default setting for Sky Shark. I'm gonna delete my skyshark.hi and try the bat again before I play this tonight (recording my run for YouTube upload). |

I'm using MAME .88 and I don't have "Extend 50K, 200K, 150K+", only "50, 150K+" and some other different option. Also I should mention perhaps, in this version there is four difficulty levels, where 2nd one (default) is called "normal". What version of MAME are you using? --- Quote ---I'm gonna delete my skyshark.hi and try the bat again before I play this tonight (recording my run for YouTube upload). --- End quote --- Cool. Good luck. If the .BAT does it's job you should see all those scores as in that screenshot. -- I noticed a little bug, there would be zeros at the end of some name instead of blank spaces. I already corrected this in download link, and if you like you can update your .BAT too. --- Code: ---@echo off & SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION SET GM=skyshark CLS & echo Mapping OnlineMAME web-folder net use z: http://www.drivehq.com/webdav/OnlineMAME /user:OnlineMAME letmeplay echo. & echo Local init, locking... mkdir hi rename z:\Hi-Score\%GM%.hi %GM%.tmp echo. & echo File locked, downloading... copy z:\Hi-Score\%GM%.tmp hi\%GM%.hi echo. & echo Merging Hi-Scores, wait... FOR /f "skip=1 tokens=1,2,3,4 delims=|" %%A IN ('HiToText -r ../hi/%GM%') DO ( SET /a IsDuplicate=0 FOR /f "skip=1 tokens=1,2,3,4 delims=|" %%E IN ('HiToText -r ./hi/%GM%') DO ( IF %%B==%%F (IF %%C==%%G SET /a IsDuplicate=1) ) IF !IsDuplicate!==0 HiToText -w ./hi/%GM% %%A %%B "%%C ." %%D ) echo. & echo Uploading back, unlocking... copy hi\%GM%.hi ..\hi\%GM%.hi /y copy hi\%GM%.hi z:\Hi-Score\%GM%.hi echo. & echo - SERVER UPDATE FINISHED - & echo. echo. & echo Cleaning up temporaries... del z:\Hi-Score\%GM%.tmp del hi\%GM%.hi & rmdir hi --- End code --- ONLY CHANGE: --> IF !IsDuplicate!==0 HiToText -w ./hi/%GM% %%A %%B "%%C ." %%D Anyway, it's not a big deal whatever you do since we are only testing, and in any case none of that should impact your screenshot or .inp file to make an entry for this competition. |

torino´s scoreboard thingy needs its own topic and IMHO it should be included in the most popular MAME-versions as a choosable option (for all games), its such a cool feature. :applaud: |

Although I won't participate in the shared high score system (because my cabinet isn't on a network & because I'm a software flunky), if somebody wants to perform the manual input of our scores & present them in a high score screen grab as torino is doing, that is a *GREAT* way to show our scores visually--sure beats having to dig through the thread & pick out all the scores! Thanks, -Jason |
