Not to Hijack - but maybe someone could do some hand holding and explain to me exactly how the hiscore.dat file works. I have mamewah installed and the 1.03 version of mame. I dropped the hiscore.dat file in place and made sure the path is properly configured in mamewah. But - ms pacman won't save scores. The williams games do - but they are the only ones. Any help? |

I dunno what Minwah got to do with the hiscore but you need to configure the path in MAME.INI. |

I do have it configured in the mame.ini to be the hi directory and the filename is correct. Just curious if there is anything else I'm supposed to do. if thats it, then I don't know. Frogger, Ms. Pacman, Pengo and pretty much all the other non-williams games keep highscore. |

You don't put hiscore.dat in the hi folder. It goes in the root mame folder with the executable. It then creates .hi files that will go into the hi folder. |

Alright I am going to revive this. I need some hand holding as well! I DL hiscore and put it in the MAME folder. I tried with it zipped. Nothing, I unzipped it and still nothing. I am trying to keep my high score for Donkey Kong! My husband and I are battleing!! I would like to keep the high scores after shut down. So what did I do wrong? People have mentioned the Mame.ini file. Where do I find this? DO I need to config that to something? Thanks. OH I am running Mamewah and Mame 103. |
