Terra Cresta (terracre, terracrb, terracra)
--- Quote ---This game has 5 high scores
Notes:
Maximum Score = 99,999,999 = (99 99 99 99)
Name Characters = 10
- Bytes 00-03 (00 02 50 00): 1st Score, In this case 25,000
- Bytes 04-13 (33 0E 26 35 2A 29 37 21 32 21): 1st Name, in this case "S.FUJIWARA"
- Bytes 14-17 (00 02 00 00): 2nd Score, In this case 20,000
- Bytes 18-27 (29 0E 33 28 29 2B 29 00 00 00): 2nd Name, in this case "I.SHIKI"
...
- Bytes 56-59 (00 00 50 00): 5th Score, In this case 5,000
- Bytes 60-69 (32 0E 39 21 2D 21 24 21 00 00): 5th Name, in this case "R.VAMADA"
- Bytes 70-73 (00 02 50 00): The in game high score, in this case 25,000
- Byte 74 (50): This is a mirror of Byte 02, The reason it is grabbed in the hiscore.dat is because both the two other lines start and end with 00, so it needs this byte to know when the table has been filled and when to dump the data from the hi file into the game memory.
Non ASCII for the Characters, Lots of Special Characters in this one.

00: (Space)
01: !

Sorry, but puzzloop and puzzloop2 are included in the hiscore.dat, and they saves correctly. You only must follow the instructions for puzzloop2. In this game, the hiscore table is generated the first time is going to be showed. Then, the hiscore data is changed with the data of the pzloop2.hi.
No special instructions for puzzloop.

Wow, I really should've checked the hiscore.dat file as well. I only ran the game and looked if a .hi file was generated.

Default the bytes are 20 20 20 20 (from the initial score-board)
Record:
10 00 = 1min 7 sec 75/100
01 00 = 4 sec
00 10 = 25/100 sec
00 01 = X hundreds of a second
digit nr 1 multiply by 1min 7 sec .75 sec
digit nr 2 multiply by 4 sec.
digit nr 3 multiply by .25 sec ( 25/100 of a second)
digit nr 4 values : (hunderds of a second)
0h = 0
1h = 1
2h = 3
3h = 4
4h = 6
5h = 7
6h = 9
7h = 10
8h = 12
9h = 14
Ah = 15
Bh = 17
Ch = 18
Dh = 20
Eh = 21
Fh = 23
So total time = digit nr 1 * 1min7sec .75 sec + digit nr 2 * 4 sec. + digit nr 3 * 0.25 sec + digit 4 (in .xx sec) =
If you didn't finish the game the value of the bytes = 00 00 (and nothing will be displayed)
Hopes this all makes sense !
The characters (ASCII):
41h = A
42h = B
...
5Ah = Z
special characters:
20h = (space) , when you let the initials entry time-out.
5Bh = . (period)

Regarding Puzz Loop 2... even using the method described in the .HI, the saves are messed up.
I followed the instructions and allowed the high score table to run through before playing... i got a high score of over 2 million. I entered my initials, let the attract mode start and then exited. I noted there was a .HI file created. I checked and while my intials JON are in place 1, the stock high score of 140,000 shows. I play a 2nd game... after the game it shows player 1 JON with my new high score... and player 2 JON with 140,000... i exit and return to fine both 1 and 2 JON at 140,000.
:(
Dazz:
I was just thinking about how cool it could be to have a program that could pull information from HitoText and post them to a database for online HighScore keeping. I know that it would be nearly impossible to police as far as cheaters go, but it could be pretty cool especially for those of us with our own online communities.
I'd love to have something like this setup for the HyperSpin community... Have it setup to where people could play and HitoText could upload the score file to a specified place on our webserver and then be parsed into something that will be displayed on the site.
Probably just a pipe dream, but it would be pretty cool...
