Hello everybody,
I have a compiled version of Mame (v 0147) with highscore support and the files "HiToText.exe" and "HiToText.xml" are present in my main GameEx-folder. GameEx shows the menu-option High Score within GameEx for my Mame-games but not for all.....
See picture:
I know there are some issues about which version of Mame you're using and which games are being supported by HiToText.
This link is showing which games are/were being supported when "Fyrecripts" was still working on the HiToText-utility.
To give an example > looking at the above link 1943 is supported by the HiToText-utility.
Nevertheless GameEx doesnt show a the menu-option "High Score" within GameEx for that game after setting a highscore and entering my name. The 1943.hi is created in my hi-folder, but it doesn't show within GameEx....? As you can see in the attached picture it does work with Donkey Kong. 1943 doesn't show this menu-option.
My goal: using a MAME-version which shows the most highscores using the high score menu option within GameEx....Can anyone point me in the right direction or give me some tips?
My motivation: I'm a huge fan of classic arcade games. Playing these games with and against my friends and competing for the best score is what makes it a lot of fun! So highscore support is very important to me....
I hope somebody can help me out in creating a setup where as many high-scores as possible are being shown using the higscore menu option within GameEx (see picture) .
Thanks!
