TG3 version and settings saved

greenspun.com : LUSENET : MAME Action Replay : One Thread

I am in the 3rd tournament and I have a few questions 1) TG3 isn't created in order to set the difficulties to the TG settings by default? I found out that my record with ladybug that I did with win32tg3 was done in easy mode instead of medium. 2) Is there a way to preserve the tg settings between different sessions of the game? It's quite annoying to set keys AND dip switch settings every time I try to record a game for the tournament. Thanks in advance

I'm not sure about win32tg3 mame but the dos tg3m35.exe you can run regular mame with out -recording, set the settings that are in the tournament, hit escape, and then the next time you run tg3m35.exe your settings will be the same.

One special note, if you use win32mame36b16 etc after you have used win32tg3mame your saved settings will be overwritten, if you use both versions of these games their "saved configuration" files are not compatible and you'll have to backup the .cfg and .hi files between playing with different versions of mame. Otherwise i think if you set the settings by playing mame with out recording and then run mame again to record your settings should be saved as the last version that saved them.... there's proly more on this topic but hopefully that will help.
