High Scores not saving in FinalBurnAlpha
-
@mitu Odd that,
I am now updating Retroarch by source as I deleted a number of config files.
Downloaded, redid the configurations of the gamepads.
Now retroarch has reverted back to the old style green lettering instead of the modern look, also the *.hi files ARE saving only in the BIOS/FBA folder. Also, the high score tables are all corrupted - an issue that should be cured by replacing the hiscore.dat file with the one mentioned in other threads. did this and it still goes in BIOS folder. Nearly midnight here so will have a go tomorrow, thanks for all help! Night -
@impman66 Are you sure you updated the core to the latest version ? What does it say in the bottom left corner when you open the retroarch menu (i want the commit) ?

Sorry don't know how to get a commit. But version says 1.6.9 - No Core
Will update again from binary just in case
After updating from binary still showing same version

@impman66 you get the core version with its commit in the bottom left corner, but you need to load a core for this.

Really appreciate this help. When I go into Retroarch and select LOAD CORES it comes up with No items, but all the cores I need are installed do I need to do something else. Real sorry but I am total novice at this.

Launch a fba game, it will load the lr-fbalpha core, you'll get the version.

@barbudreadmon
OK thanks I have1.6.9 - FB Alpha v0.2.97.42 2021f2d

That's a version from early november, hiscores won't work properly with this version, and the .hi files will get saved in the old location. Update it to the latest (i don't know about the binary version, it is probably safer to use the retropie scripts to build it from sources) and your issues will be solved.
