Fyrecrypts Posted June 7, 2010 Author Share Posted June 7, 2010 Well for me...Though I now have a playable (minus hi scores) via hyperspin. I seriously doubt i wiill be using it much without getting hiscores to show up. Since they do when running stuff direct, Im likley to dump hyperspin even with the success of getting stuff setup. And no, I wont bother with the external option, I only care about the games itself doing save state or simlar... as they already do when run direct. THis is a hyperspin issue so I will be looking for another alternative to hyperspin. Bummer Hyperspin is the coolest one, and in fact is the only one I would pay retail $$ for and more... My alternative to hyperspin will be a dos run menu that I dont particular like but its mine based on rubyonrails and webbased so time will tell. Two things for you. HiToText does not support save states (yet), so you kinda have the wrong thread for that. Secondly, I see you've plastered your question in multiple locations and in doing so repeatedly bash this FE for not working correctly with what you want as opposed to asking in the appropriate location for help setting HyperSpin up. Numerous people have HyperSpin with Hyperlaunch working correctly with MAME and save states. The HyperSpin community is very helpful, so long as you're nice about it. Good luck!

killars Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 The HyperSpin community is very helpful, so long as you're nice about it. Good luck! For anyone experiencing problems who can`t be bothered to recompile or are unsure what they are doing and just want to `play it safe` just do a search for mameuifx and a search for hiscore.dat and voila! (this is confirmed working within hyperspin with highscore support). Compiling your own though really is the best way to do it. Im seeing multiple threads concerning highscore support etc and fyrecrypts is perfectly right, we all will help when we can. Just because you havent received a quick or immediate response it does`nt mean your being ignored. In a majority of cases peoples questions are answered within minutes - the key = patience.

Tulsaboyw Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 True enough, appologies to all for that.. .I was in a bit of mood and it was uncalled for in a lot of the 'bashing' except for the the fact that the hiscore which works outside HS but doesnt work via Hs when HS is just a FE. In that I consider the bashing valid... but the scope and multiple posts is definately uncalled for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killars Posted June 7, 2010 Share Posted June 7, 2010 earlier i installed multiple versions of mame testing the `hiscore` problem. I found that without compiling my own then using any of the UI versions (such as Mameui32 etc) i ran into no highscore saving. I did however find Mameuifx32 which when coupled with a hiscore.dat in the mame folder worked fine inside of hyperspin. I had been looking into your problem for you Personally i`d take an alternative mame to an alternative Hyperspin ANYDAY. Sorry to interrupt your thread Fyrecrypts.

Tulsaboyw Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Thnanks killars your help has been stellar amongst it all. I dont see why in my case mame need be compiled when all the mames I have do hiscore just fine (its only via HS that it doesnt, unless i hit f7,alt-f7 to load em). Agreed, as noted before I guess I had a bit of a fit and got carried away. but will check into uifx also. makes sense on alternatives, i guess it depends on approach.

Tulsaboyw Posted June 9, 2010 Share Posted June 9, 2010 not needed, there were other mame's (unofficial or not) that had hiscore built in but where not necessarily HS doable without the usual stuff on configs. no matter using something else anyway now. Thanks all anyway for the help. Maybe one day, back to HS, its still the best visual out there though with a bit too much on some of the cool stuff though fortunately most of that is editable anyway.

chillinwater Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 There is a HiToText.xml 2010.08.09 Parents\Clones up on Hyperlist. (for easy testing, shows all HiToText Supported games) You gotta play 'em to display 'em You can use hyperlaunch but dont exit with your Hyperlaunch "exit key" or the highscores wont save and HiToText wont display. Still couldnt get the Parents only text output option to work. So for now if you want to use Parents only, use Romlister. I may post it later today. FireCrypts your link to the source file .zip seems dead. Thanks again for this app! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fyrecrypts Posted August 16, 2010 Author Share Posted August 16, 2010 Big-ish update this time around. 21 new games thanks to bLAZER, and massive speed increases which reduce the HyperSpin hang-up, but don't remove it. As I mentioned earlier, without some changes to how HyperSpin access HiToText these hangups will certainly always be there. At the very least it's a "little less" jarring seeing the hi scores pop up with this new version. Additionally, as I can't figure out why chillinwater is having issues with the -lp command, I've put up a file: http://hitotext.com/HiToText/parents.txt that actually lists the parents for him to use for his HyperList lists. ------------------- Version 2010.8.16 ------------------- New Games: Crash, Orbitron, Sheriff, Water Ski, Logic Pro, The Tin Star, Enigma II, Hexa, Gee Bee, Paradise, Indian Battle, Red Clash, Super Bug, Targ, Spectar, Sasuke vs. Commander, Pisces, Killer Comet, Tank Battalion, Levers, Navarone (bLAZER) Bug Fixes: Fixed issue with alien3, rank display was incorrectly read as int instead of a hex int. tinstar2 added to hiscore.dat (clone of tinstar). enigma2a, and enigma2b added to hiscore.dat (clones of enigma2). geebeeb added to hiscore.dat (clone of geebee). targ and spectar split into separate parents. targc added to hiscore.dat (clone of targ). panzer, phantom, phantoma, and rallys added to hiscore.dat (clones of spectar). piscesb added to hiscore.dat (clone of pisces). New features: Massive speed increases for legacy calls using the command line. It's not quite as fast as legacy drivers were, but the difference is only about 10-50 ms. at most which is usually negligible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fyrecrypts Posted August 24, 2010 Author Share Posted August 24, 2010 Small update to increase speeds, reduce confusion, and fix a bug with -lp (again). ------------------- Version 2010.8.24 ------------------- Bug Fixes: Fix to -lp command, it actually works in all known circumstances (so far). Fix to version checking of MAME, only used when necessary (so far just Track and Field). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chillinwater Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Hey Hey -Lp is working. I noticed a signaficant speed increase in the previous version. only a very slight hiccup. (havent tested this one yet). And here is the benefit of -Lp. As usual feed these txt files into Hyperlist to make your databases. Then add these lines to your: \hyperspin\databases\mame\Genre.xml to quickly see which games are popping up with the "High Scores" in HS. You gotta play 'em to display 'em <game name="HiToTxt-Parents v2010.8.24" /> <game name="HiToTxt-Parents-Clones v2010.8.24" /> [HiToTxt-Parents v2010.8.24.txt] 005 10yard 1941 1942 1943 1943kai 1944

Fyrecrypts Posted September 1, 2010 Author Share Posted September 1, 2010 Not a big update or anything huge, but I've put HiToText up on Sourceforge: https://sourceforge.net/projects/hitotext/ I figured this might be an easier way to update the project than my current method. In the future, expect updates to be found there instead of linked off of my FTP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lid Posted October 8, 2010 Share Posted October 8, 2010 Awesome work I have just got HiToText working and I love it. Now it's time to set some highscores so I can see my name popping up in hyperspin One quick question I know its not quite relating to HiToText but maybe someone can help. I notice that in the list by chillinwater it mentions Bubble Bobble but for some reason whenever I run Bubble Bubble in mame it won't create a .hi file. I know this isn't a HiToText problem as it can't find the .hi file because mame hasn't created it but does anyone else get this problem. It works fine for all of the other games I have tested but I love Bubble Bobble and that was the main reason I wanted Hi score support in HS. I made a post about it here if anyone can help http://www.hyperspin-fe.com/forum/showthread.php?t=9901 Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snatex Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 I was hoping someone could help me out with Hitotext. This is what I have done: 1 - Compiled MAME 0.140u1 with latest hiscore diff 2 - Downloaded latest hitotext w xml and put in hyperspin folder with hyperspin.exe 3 - Downloaded latest hiscore.dat and put in MAME folder with MAME.exe 4 - Edited Hyperlaunch MAME portion with Autohotkey to remove "Hotkey, %exitEmulatorKey%, CloseProcess" then recompiled. 5 - Made sure that hyperpin's setting.ini had HiScore section, Active = true After editing hyperlaunch I am now getting .hi files to generate but when I achieve an actual hiscore it is crashing MAME. I played Donkey Kong and got a hiscore. When I exited I got a crash error box from MAME. Next time I tried to play Donkey Kong it was all messed up and DK was invisible, etc. So I deleted the .hi file and played again. It was now fine but when I got another hiscore and tried to exit it crashed again. Can you help me get this setup properly? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snatex Posted November 24, 2010 Share Posted November 24, 2010 I've now tested this without hyperspin and it works fine. I tried exiting with and without hyperlaunch but every time it crashes when writing a high score. Any ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
