I'm confused why you're using that method instead of just using MAME's built in screen grabber. You can put the saved pictures anywhere you want, and whatever tool you're using to sync should find it easy enough. Oh well. Least you got it working! Nice score bud!

[helpman]

If Iuse mame's own screen capture it places the snapshots on the snapshot folder of mame (if it does it in any other folder, I couldn't find how). then I would need to move them to another folder so I could sync them online, and again, I have no keyboard on the cabinet

Besides that, using fraps lets me take screenshots or record movies easily, save them wherever I like (on a folder already marked to be synced online with google drive) and with fraps and a custom set on xpadder (snapshots on f12 key, on xpadder the combo makes 1 button change to control set 2 while pressed and then another button produces the f12 key using control set 2) I can get snapshots with the same combo for gameex, mame, nestopia, model2, zinc, future pinball... anything

all them saved on the same folder, sync online with google drive and updated on local folders on my laptop and desktop pcs without needing to touch a single key

EDITED: found this on a drawer... still works, so now I have a keyboard and mouse on my cabinet... kinda...

[hansolo77]

I see.. There is a way to configure MAME to save your snapshots anywhere you like. Go here (link) and look at steps 4a and 4b. You don't need a keyboard, just use the mouse to select the folder you want to save in. Anyway, long as you got a system that works, that's all that matters.

To be honest this game is not that hard.

I think the score is beatable but there's only so much of this game i can take, When i had a NES in the 80's I played this game a little too much.

[GimmeClassics]

a little improvement on my last score...reaching for that 100K+

I'm still working on getting the snap plugin working, but I got 79,500. I'll get there soon enough.

[KRC]

I wonder if my score can be beaten by one of you guys!

[hansolo77]

Good job, moves you right up to 4th place!

Mario Bros. I played the Atari 2600 port more than this.

But, a respectable score.

ExedExes - 73,280

(note, there is a score of 81K, but that one I used in a short-lived MAME score thread over on the Racketboy forums. This game remembers old scores well! 73,280 is what I got today.)

A respectable score, puts you bang in the middle I used to play Vs. with my brother for hours on the NES version - can't seem to get into it on single player though. The controls don't seem right and i don't know why lol

*Updated OP, DB, RSS

[hansolo77]

Yeah I too played the Atari version, never the arcade. When this game was listed on our competition, I failed horribly for probably the same reaason Dazzle suggests. The controls are screwy when trying to jump diagonally. Don't know why, but it makes all the difference for me.

[KRC]

All this talk of Mario Bros, Is anyone gonna try and surpass by score

[DazzleHP]

All this talk of Mario Bros, Is anyone gonna try and surpass by score

nahhhhhhhhhh

[KRC]

lol, give it a try at least

[DazzleHP]

I'll post something when the day comes that i do ALL the ones i haven't tried yet I've only actually played around a third of them I can guarantee that it'll be in the bottom half though so you got no worries there!

[KRC]

I'm pretty surprised Exed Exes hasn't come in and blew the score away yet
