      Hi - for latest FBneo is there a list of games that have hi-score functionality enabled -

      I've been trying to weeks to get track and field and hypersports HI-scores saving with no luck

      most of my games save hi-scores and i have the latest hiscore.dat file in the correct location

      Also performed the whole DIP switch pieces of set to reset on reset - then set not to reset - still no luck

      the reset does generate me some default world records - but still does not save scores :(

      I'm assuming its not enabled ? - is there a list of enabled ones anywhere - i have been looking with no joy

                Hi - for latest FBAneo is there a list of games that have hi-score functionality enabled -

                No. Also, our emulator is named FBNeo, please don't butcher its name.

                Games that don't appear in hiscore.dat (like those 2) usually won't save hiscores, however in this case i think hiscores could actually be saved through their eeproms, so i'll look into this.

                    @robbi3j the fix is on git, please update from sources and let me know if it did the trick.

                            @barbudreadmon - Thought I better feed this back - this does seem to have created a slight issue with track and field that - so ... when asking retroarch to reset the console & game - the game gets stuck with partial reset and partial continue ( half of the running game graphics show through the initial rom test graphic ) and the game doesn't actually reset - this doesn't bother me as I rarely use the reset option from the quick menu in retroarch ( I always quit the emulator and re-load ) - Just FYI

                                @robbi3j it turns out this game is also using its eeprom as an additional ram, so the fix here was to stop saving/loading eeprom at reset (which should be perfectly fine, saving eeprom should only be required when exiting the game).
