Including default Hiscore Table with game

[King_Cool]

Hi
How can i include a default hiscore table ( ini file ) in a game?

...
This is what i have done:
- Hiscore Table is an ini file
- Hiscore Table points to hiscores.ini
- I generate a default Hiscore Table ( ini file ) and iclude it under 'Binary Data' in Data Elements

When my friend tests the game however, there apparently is an error stating hiscores.ini is not found and the game wont run.

What am i doing wrong?

Did you remember to click the "create ini in data application folder " checkbox in the ini properties? If not, it's not going to end up in the right place I don't think.

I gave up on this myself. It's easy to write and read to the ini, but I don't think I ever got the ini to read pre-written data from the binary file because I switched to the list object. If it's possible, write what you need to the ini in the first frame at the start. Then, it creates the ini in the right place and you don't have to worry about it finding the pre-existing file.

If you have the developer version, you could use the gamersafe scores system, or why don't you just use Mochi's? I really wish I could help you more, because I know you've been working on this for a while.
