Hey guys... I am having some problems compiling Mame64UI and was wondering if anyone may know what I did wrong? I tried to contact headkaze on the matter but he has been little help so I am reaching out to the community.

Sooo....

I ended up getting it to compile ok and everything is working but the hi scores.

I created a dir called "hi" under my main mame folder and downloaded the latest highscore dat from the following, placed it in the main dir of mame where the newly created compiled exe is.

http://www.mameworld.net/highscore/

I recorded hi scores on Galaga but no file was created under "hi" and no score was recorded in the game when it was exited and reloaded.

Any Ideas? Almost close to having this work... No errors when I compiled, "nag" and "load" screens are gone.

Also at what point does it create the galaga.hi file? When I load the rom or prior to it?

ps. Patches where applied in the correct order as far as I know.

Thanks Everyone.

I got this working, none- UI version so I guess there is a glitch or something I am doing wrong with the UI version.

Do you have the HISCORE.DAT? in your MAME directory

Yeah...

I think I am going to just start using the non-UI version, less hassle and it works when I compile it. =]
