In the amount of time it's taken to write these posts - ignoring the time spent creating, testing and discussing the script - you could have recompiled mame with the patch and had the problem solved.
Why the resistance to doing it the easy way?

Would you like to do it for me, I tried and must have done something wrong. I am going to try again but would like to have a working version. Why hasn't anyone posted a link to a recompiled version?

Because it is extremely easy to do yourself *and* the mame devs get :timebomb: when people provide a compiled version with the nag removed. See this topic:

I recompiled mine, but only did it once. I'd have to research the whole thing if I ever had to do again.. :(
You will always have to hit OK again if the game has any emulation problems ie Galaga. This is when recompiling is great. No more hitting OK for galaga!

Not much research. Mr. Do's page makes it very easy.

I got beat to the post, but it's still valid info:
OK, one last time, here is the only info you'll need to setup your own mame compile environment.

The hiscore files (which also eliminate the warnings) are here:

That's it. No scripts, no hacks, nothing to worry about.
If I can do it anyone can. I'm as dumb as a bag of doorknobs when it comes to compiling source code and have had no problems.
