HiToText (Version 2010.11.4).

--- Quote from: Dazz on June 24, 2009, 12:20:42 am ---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...

HiScanner was exactly this. I removed it because it was unmanagable. ???? is its replacement... and then some.

We were in talks with Tom about setting up a server for the GameEx community but nothing came of it. I don't see how you can prevent cheating.
HiScanner was being updated to improve security but I still can't see how it can prevent cheating. So I'm guessing you dropped development altogether Fyrecrypts?

Yes, HiScanner will be completely obsoleted by ????. Alpha testing coming soon. Like this week soon (I hope).

Is there a way to incorporate HiToText in some fashion in to MAMEWAH? I use MAMEWAH for my cabs...

Funny you should say that:

Edit: However it is pretty FE friendly, all a developer has to do is send commands to the exe. I imagine if FE devs got enough requests to see it used, they'd incorporate it like Tom, Ben, and Bill have for their FEs.

I should probably have a look at this in Mamewah (although not had any requests). Presumably when you select a game it runs the .exe and retrieves the scores from a text file or something?
