Ok, this is one of my Favourites, World Rally (wrally)
It was a pain as there are allot of values in the table, and it takes ages to show when the game is idle, then it only shows the top 5.
Anyway, I think I have it covered.
--- Code: ---We have 36 high scores in the table.
Note: Maximum Score = (01 86 9F) = 99,999 (anything higher will give corrupt values in the table)

- Byte 03 (03): Not sure what this byte is for but any other value will cause corruption of the table
- Byte 04 (00): Padding

Fyrecrypts:
These are great, thank you very much for the help! I'll make some time this week to update HiToText with the games you've deciphered.

Next is Mat Mania (marmania) also know as Exciting Hour (excthour)
--- Quote ---We have 5 high scores in the Table
Notes;
Maximum valid score is (99 99 99) = 9,999,990
- Bytes 00-02 (12 34 56): Is the highest score (#1), Stored in reverse order and a trailing 0 is added. In this case, 5,634,120 points.
- Byte 03 (12): Round, in this case 12
- Bytes 04-07 (00 00 00 00): These appear just to be padding, they start off with 00's and change to B0's for lines when a score is acutally set. Changing them has no effect to the scores table.
- Bytes 08-15 (BB BC D4 B0 B1 B2 BA D5): Is the name of the highest score (8 characters) (In this case "ABZ 019©")
- Bytes 16-18 (00 25 00): Is the next score (#2). In this case, 25,000 points.
- Byte 19 (05): Round, in this case 05
- Bytes 20-23 (00 00 00 00): Padding?
- Bytes 24-31 (C6 CA CD B0 B0 B0 B0 B0): Is the name of the next score (8 characters) (In this case "LPS ")
...
- Bytes 64-66 (00 10 00): Is the last score (#5), In this case, 10,000 points.
- Byte 67 (02): Round, in this case 02
- Bytes 68-71 (00 00 00 00): Padding?
- Bytes 72-79 (C6 C6 CD B0 B0 B0 B0 B0): Is the name of the last score (8 characters) (In this case "LLS ")
- Bytes 80-82 (12 34 56): Is the in game Hiscore, in this case 5,634,120 points.
Characters are not standard ASCII in this one, and a it has several non alpha characters, but with 8 Characters per name it only took me a couple to get all the characters. I have shortend the table, just fill in the gaps with sequencial HEX count and follow the series.
The characters
B0: (space)
B1: 0
B2: 1
...
BA: 9
BB: A
BC: B
...
D4: Z
D5: © (Copyright Logo)
D6: ?
D7: !
D8: -
D9: .
DA: ,

Notes:
Maximum valid score is (09 09 09 09 09 09 09 09) = 999,999,990 (With a value this high The score digets actually obscure the "1ST" text. Highest ever recorded score is 2,344,150 according to wikipedia)
- Bytes 00-07 (01 02 03 04 05 06 07 08): Is the highest score (#1). Trailing 0 is added in game. In this case, 123,456,780 points
- Bytes 08-11 (41 42 43 44): Extra name Characters, These bits are normally 20 (Blank) but values set here will show up in the scoreboard, Above the normal Initials text, I set them as a test to "ABCD" (They can NOT be entered in game)
- Bytes 12-14 (45 46 47): This is the Players Initials (3 Characters), in this Case (EFG) (This is the Valid in game entered text)
- Byte 15 (48): Another peice of extra Name text, this appears after the valid 3 Characters, I also set them via the file, In this Case "H" (This can NOT be entered in game)
- Bytes 16-23 (00 00 00 00 02 00 01 05): Is the 2nd score (#2), in this case 20,150 points
- Bytes 24-27 (20 20 20 20): Blank characters as per normal
- Bytes 28-30 (6D 6C 21): Players initials (3 Characters), in this case "Heart Diamond !"
- Byte 21 (20): Blank character as per normal
...
- Bytes 64-71 (00 00 00 00 01 06 00 00): Is the 5th score (#5), in this case 16,000 points

and finally the in game High Score
- Bytes 80-87 (00 00 00 00 02 08 09 05): This is the in game Hiscore. In this case 28,950 points (This would normally equal the 1st score, but I manually edited the 1st score)
For the names this one uses standard ASCII Codes except for some of the special characters.

The forum has stopped allowing me to attach file so here are some links for the images on this one, I have included two;
One to show you how the extra characters appear.
and one to show you all the special characters, this is the screen where you enter your name. The RB (Rub) and ED (End) are not characters :)
