How to create favorite lists in gameex

[dcparis]

Hi,

I'm trying to make different lists of favorite games in gameex, for mame games, something like "favorite party games"; "oldies but goldies" etc... and i can't find a way to do that. Is it possible to make that with game ex and if yes thanks for telling me how to ?

Also, in mame games i can't get the high score to be saved, how to do that ? i use mame windows command line version with gameex

First: You can make a MAME custom folder by following the steps here: link

It's kinda easy. Just follow the steps and you should be alright.

If you want to add games to the favorites list, you can just select 'Add to Favorites' from the game's sub menu.

Second: If you have Hiscore.dat (located here) in your MAME root folder it should save OK. Some games didn't save high scores when they were originally fabricated, so this is the workaround. If that doesn't work, MAME has an official hiscore.dat located here that you can try. Most games after 1985 or so all save the hiscore data as nvram upon exiting the game.

I hope that helps!
