HISCORE DIFF’s for all MAME versions without hiscore support (108 – current)
The diff performs the following:
1) Adds hiscore support back into MAME
2) Removes all nag screens
3) Removes loading messages (decoding/decrypting/Updating Artwork, etc.) and the ‘white box’ when loading. (This was added to the diffs starting with hi_120)
4)Disables crosshairs by default. You can turn them back on in the game with F1 This was removed starting with hi_130u3 since MAME core now has the ability to change crosshair settings in the menu.
5) Tab button(menu) also pauses MAME and 1 acts as ‘Enter’. Remove the inptport.c section if you do not want this(or just remove it from the ingame menu) This was removed starting with hi_124. You can configure this in the in game menu.
Starting with hi_127a (re-vamped 127 uploaded on 08-24) you now have the option to disable any of the patch functions via the mame.ini file. Add the following to the mame.ini file to disable the appropiate patch section:
disable_hiscore_patch 1 <- To disable highscore support. Set to 0 or omit it entirely from ini file to enable.
disable_crosshair_patch 1 <- To disable crosshairs off by default. Set to 0 or omit it entirely from ini file to enable. <- removed starting with hi_130u3
disable_nagscreen_patch 1 <- To disable removal of nagscreens /white box. Set to 0 or omit it entirely from ini file to enable.
disable_loading_patch 1 <- To disable suppresssion of loading/decypting/etc messages. Set to 0 or omit it entirely from ini file to enable.
For help compiling MAME, please see Mr. Do’s excellent page. He’s made it so simple, there’s no excuse not to compile your own!

You can also get Headkaze’s MAME Compiler to make compiling even easier. Great app for those not too familier with making your own builds!
Also, you will need the hiscore.dat file by Leezer in your mame directory. You can grab that over at http://www.mameworld.net/highscore/
…and don’t forget to create a sub folder under your mame directory named “hi”…that’s it!
Starting with hi_124, all modifications are preceeded with comments detailing what is occuring. You can search the diff for “MKChamp” to find all the comments.
Here’s the guide for what diff to download (change extention from .txt to .diff) — Thanks for hosting them abelenki!
