Can't get HiToText working

[Endaar]

Hi All,

I can't seem to get high scores to display in GameEx. I have the latest hiscore.dat in my MAME directory and the latest HiToText.EXE in my GameEx directory. I compiled MAME 133 with hiscore support, and that's working fine, creating .hi files. "Enable High Scores" is set to YES. When I view the game info page for a game with a corresponding .hi file (Donkey Kong for example), there's no option to view high scores.

I've checked everything a few times and just can't see what I'm missing; probably something stupid.

I'm attaching my gameex.ini file and would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Endaar

I had a couple of issues as well. I think in playing with this, I ended up with a mismatching dat/exe set. I re-downloaded a correct matching set and the games I tested worked correctly. I can confirm 005, dkong, 1942.

I've never managed to get this working right either, it seems that every time I update mame, GameEx will grab the scores from the 1st time I run a game but it will never update.

GameEx currently shows my Donkey Kong hi score as 20k but when I run Donkey Kong my actual high score is nearer 50k
