hiscore.dat - bubble bobble issues
« on: March 27, 2011, 07:24:32 pm »
Wondering where I should post this issue. Not sure if it is an issue or not.

Setup:
Running mameuifx32 141 with latest hiscore.dat.

Issue:
When starting a new game of bubble bobble where the hiscore has been saved, the power ups in each level are enhanced. It acts like a cheat.
I read that some of the power ups in bubble bobble are based on counters. eg: How many jumps, bubbles popped, distance ran, etc and are maintained even when a players game ends and a new player starts. Of course until the power is removed. Is this what is happening with the hiscore save?

Thanks!
