Hello all,
I have my Mame to save High Scores. The games that seem to do this always say "Save state Successful" or something of that nature. But I have a couple ROMS like Bad Dudes and Tecmo Bowl for example that do not save High Scores. As a test I have created a Save Point to key "Q" for both ROMs and it works fine when I hit F7 - "Q" when I load the game the next time around. My question is....
1. Is this the way high scores saves work or did I do something wrong
2. If this manual creation of saves states is needed is there something I can do to say "when I run Tecmo Bowl ROM F7 - "Q" are pressed automatically so the game state loads on it's own." then when closing is there some script or something that will hit SHIFT F7 - "Q" for me to save the newly edit save state?
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks,
Rich

Not all games support save states. The two you list are some of them. You check support in the mame xml.
