The file that worked for me is the "old format hiscore.dat" as indicated in the manual
https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/wiki/lr-fbalpha
And I placed it in [system]/fba/ folder ([system] being my bios folder)
As indicated by barbudreadmon above.
Thanks a lot to you all and see ya !
Ok I just did it.
My hiscore.dat file was not valid.
Now it works.
But the highscores are erased if I load a savestate, is there anything I can do to be able to load a savestate without erasing the highscore ?
Thanks again for your answers and all the work there is behind.
Ok thanks, I'm gonna do it all over again from the beginning. I'll post the results when I'm done.
@barbudreadmon said in Highscores for street fighter 3 third strike:
Make sure you have the hiscore.dat file in your
[system]/fba/folder ([system]being your bios folder), and that you enabled hiscores in the core options.
Yes I think so the path is : "recallbox/share1/bios/fba"
And I just made a few more tests : my autosave works but the autosave is deleted if I open the game in netplay or if I load a previous savestate (witch was predictable)
I looked a bit around and I think my version of fba (2.97.43) is the last one so i misunderstood : the thing I have to update is my retroarch.
I just read this : https://forum.recalbox.com/topic/8801/update-retroarch-is-it-possible-how-to-do-it
Is there any tutorial for compiling it ?
I use lubuntu so I already compiled once or twice but I'm not sure about how that works with recalbox.
Thank you for reading
@barbudreadmon
Yes my hiscore.dat is in that place. and it is activated in the core options, still it doesn't do.
I'm gonna search for a newer version of FBA.
Thanks
Thanks for your answers.
I activated highscores in the core option but while verifying that, I just saw that I can activate autosave for FBA in the advanced settings of recallbox. It WORKS ! Highscores are saved and even number of credits.
But is it the point of highscores.dat or is it a way of by-passing my problem ?
I'm going to upgrade retroarch and test without autosave.
Thanks again and have a nice day !
Hi,
This is my first post so first of all thanks everyone for all the great work you did to allow people to play on all these old systems !
I read a couple of topics about the highscores in fba and I tried a few things like that : https://gitlab.com/recalbox/recalbox/issues/323
But still, the highscores are not saved for my streetfighter game (3rd strike)
Is there something I can do about that ?
My version of recalbox is 18.07.13
it has Retroarch 1.7.3
I use FBA V0.2.97.43
And the whole thing is on a usb stick plugged in a Dell desktop (optilex GX620)
Thanks for reading.
