      @mrmadcatz I think you got your info here - from @barbudreadmon. The configuration for this game in the hiscore.dat file is wrong - that's why saving the hiscore doesn't work.

      Same situation is present in MAME, so it looks like saving it won't work until someone adds a proper hiscore.dat entry for the game. The hiscore.dat file instructs the emulator how to save the high scores for the game, if there's no entry for the game or if the entry is not correct, no emulator will be able to save high scores.

      @busywait said in Advise Regarding High Scores in Donkey Kong:

      The sounds are a little harsher in fbneo (more high-frequency?)

      The sound in FBNeo should be accurate (one of our devs has access to the cabinet). Make sure you are using the right sample file for each emulator, iirc MAME need sample files with the matching samplerates, while that shouldn't be a major problem (apart maybe quality loss) for FBNeo which will convert at runtime if it doesn't match the expected samplerate. You might also want to play around with sound settings in FBNeo's core options if you don't like the default (requires restart). Btw, i'm using that sample with dkong on FBNeo (it's not copyrighted content afaik so it should be ok to share).

      @busywait said in Advise Regarding High Scores in Donkey Kong:

      The girders are more pink in fbneo

      FBNeo has the right colors (iirc the pink is not the only difference), it was fixed around 2011 in MAME and backported to FBAlpha in 2018.

      @DRB i already answered to that question :

      @barbudreadmon said in HELP - Donkey Kong Spooky Remix Hi Score Save in MAME 2016:

      Edit : I think it might be impossible even after adding the missing entry in hiscore.dat, afaik "braze" based hacks (dkongx, dkongx11, dkspkyrmx and dkchrmx) require to enter startup menu to erase hiscores before being able to save them, but it seems that menu is only accessible in dkongx and dkongx11

      I just tested with 1944.
      Mame2010 saves the hiscore.
      Mame2016 doesn't.
      Unfortunately mame2010 only recognizes 1 joystick.
      So it must be due to the mame2016 configuration (?).

      Delete all *.hi and *.nv-files in the ~/hi and ~/nvram folders of your mame4all-directory.

      If you meant the default scores which are given by the developers of the arcade-machines: you cannot reset them, they are hardcoded.

      thank you @barbudreadmon , i had made the leap of faith that since, for example, Xain'd Sleena had an entry in the file it was supported. I'll retry 1942...

      Appreciate the confirmation.I'll just have to keep grabbing a save state until some support hopefully comes! If i had the ability I'd look into how to do it myself...

      Bummer that there seems to be no way to do this.

      I don't plan on cutting power without doing a normal shutdown regularly, but accidental unplugging is definitely a risk in my use case.

      Thank you for the help!

      @stoney66 said in High Scores Not Saving MAME2016:

      Do you have the same issue with lr-mame2003?

      I had issue many moons ago and replaced the hiscore.dat file with the one at the link below. I never tested 2016 though. It looks like the .dat file isn't needed anymore as each game has a .hi file saved in the roms/arcade/mame2003/hi directory. Maybe 2016 is the same path (up to the mame2003 part anyway).

      http://www.mameworld.info/highscore/download.htm

      https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/lr-mame2003#high-scores

      @stoney66 it looks like my mame2003 games are saving but not mame2016. There was not a hi file in 2016 so I created one with no luck.

      I have already downloaded highscore.dat and tried it in several locations but none work. I just need to know where to place that file then maybe it will work. Or at least it would be nice if someone can confirm high score saving in mame2016.

      @barbudreadmon alright, thanks for the explanation. I'll switch off most of my systems on it so.

      Thanks for the replies, explanations, and time !

      i think it might be simpler to have your arcade rom folder on the server: https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/Running-ROMs-from-a-Network-Share

      this way, the mame .hi files themselves would be also on this server (see https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/lr-mame2003#high-scores), so you would both be using the same individual files. i guess you wouldn't be able to log scores on the same game at the exact same time.

      @markwkidd said in MAME 2010 High Scores?:

      I'm not positive what this comment in hiscore.dat means, but I have a feeling it might be related to the Gorf issue
      I checked the MAME 2003, MAME 2014, and MAME 2016 hiscore.dat but they're using the same hiscore memory map. :(

      Very strange. If you can think of any way for me to help test or troubleshoot let me know.
