This thread is for posting which games you would like high score saving to be enabled in.

I've been playing and testing all day yesterday, but found a few that didn't work so I'm investigating other options (like centipede/millipede driver, weird.)  I had a ton of timing trouble with that driver anyways, so it may have something to do with it.

It turns out Millipede and Centipede hw save only the top 3 scores, so I ended up doing a whole lotta debugging for nothing  :eek:  Funny.   :redface:

On the bright side, I ended up using the "ea rom" method instead of hiscore.dat for high score saves with the 2 games. ea rom (erasable/programmable rom) is kinda like an early version of flash memory that the centipede & millipede hw uses to save the top 3 hi-scores.

Some of them have NRVAM/EEPROMS so don't need anything adding.

Really important, make sure to put HiscoreReset(); in the DrvDoReset() function :)

Hi and sorry for bumping an old topic !

Cps3 doesn't seem to support hiscores (at least in the last release, i don't know about the svn version) so i tried to add it myself since a few people asked me for it :
https://github.com/libretro/fbalpha/commit/4160b4a2bde71caae974343ce3c9daf3c45cc47e

Did i overlook something ?
