Title: Ketsui high score issue
Post by: brad808 on April 01, 2013, 11:09:58 am

I'm wondering if anybody else has this problem with saving high scores in ketsui using mame. Basically it can't save high scores over 20 million (approximately, I haven't narrowed down the exact number). It will save all scores perfectly until getting over 20 million. I can exit and reopen the game and they will all be there perfectly. As soon as I get a score above 20 million it will show up there until I exit and then when I reopen the game it will be a number under 10 million but in the first place spot. Then next time I get a score above that it will replace the first place spot again. I've tried deleting the hi score file and nvram file but it doesn't make a difference.

Anyone else see it or have a solution?

This particular high score should be 25 someodd million

This is the hiscore.dat I'm using

ket:
keta:
ketb:

0:801093:1:30:30

Seems to be the newest that I can find.

I haven't played this much yet, but it's on my list for my future cabinet.  I've been watching in hope that you'd get an answer in case I run into the same thing.  Please update if you figure it out.

I would try to PM emphatic, he seemed very much into this game, that's how I learned about it's existence. I'd love to help, but I'm not good at it. I believe he posted a link to a youtube video in one of his threads, and it was a long game, so I'm pretty sure he's scoring high.

Btw, did you try the usual, like higher or lower version of mame or perhaps mame32 over regular mame?

I have the PCB, and it doesn't save scores either.  :P The little time I spent playing it in MAME, I don't recall if scores were saved or not, as I rather record input files (for Youtube vids). I can ask around over on the shmups forums though. Maybe it's your MAME build??
