Title: As of Mame 0.105 hi-scores clear after F3 reset?
Post by: RetroBorg on April 21, 2006, 09:37:00 am

Has anyone noticed that as of Mame 0.105 if you push F3 to reset a game the hi-score file clears out?  ???

Am I doing something wrong? Or is it the same for everyone?

This might have to do with the hard vs soft reset.  Check this thread (http://www.mame.net/cgi-bin/wwwthreads/showpost.pl?Board=mamegeneral&Number=192349&page=&view=&mode=threaded&sb=#Post192349) and see if it applies to you.  Note that they talk about 0.105u1, which might be different from 0.105, since reset has been changing recently.

I had read that thread before when I was trying to work out the problem, I believe F3 is actually doing a hard reset when it should be doing a soft reset, I have even remapped hard reset to a completely different key but I still get the same result.

Can someone else please see if they have the same trouble, make sure if you want to keep your high score to make a backup of it first though.
