Is there a way to read the memcard file system on a PC with PCMCIA reader? Or maybe dump the highscores via PC-2-Neo?
I should have mentioned before that the actual code in the unibios is based on the highscore saving routines by SMKDAN. he gave permission for it to be used in the unibios and I have since improoved on it but in the end he deserves the credit for it.
When a highscore is saved you can see it in the memory card manager, it will be the game name with 'HS' following it. You can then delete the score table using the memorycard manager if you wish.
Yes, they can be read and dumped with PC2NEO already. At some point in the future it might also be possible to use a neoSD to read / restore data on a memory card data to the neoSDs micro SDcard.
Have you set the 8th character of the memory cards user name to '!'? If not memory card highscore saving is not enabled.
Once enabled highscore saving/loading is automatic.
Can you please post a picture. Like I said highscore saving is automatic, you need o let the game over sequence finish and back to attract mode before the score will save automatically. dont use cheats either as that will disable hs score saving to memory card.

Is this going to take a lot of memory, or will I still have space on my NeoSaveMasta for a save from every game?
This got me wondering, when it comes to like the 161in1 or even a legit cart, if you decide to go in to update a game specific softdip setting and set a specific difficulty level (since the 161 most games stupidly are set to LV7 or 8 on default), will that setting be retained once you roll through the last 8 games limit of the MVS? Bugs the crap out of me having to continually reset the default of 4 again due to that 161in1.
I've been meaning to get the unibios and still have yet to get around to it. I probably should pop now as I've not seen anything about another update.
Reviving this thread cause I have encountered a new oddity and was wondering if this was a bug in the VMC. It seems like Metal Slug 4 will only save up to 7 hi score saves, and anything recorded after that no longer gets saved. This is with no cheats enabled and waiting past credits even started a new game before powering off. Anyone else encounter this before? Not sure how to get the game to register new hi scores now.
EDIT: Ok I got it sorted out. Was just a settings problem.
