to the .dat file, these can be pasted into your old highscore.dat file if
you don`t wish to download any of the above zip files. But
take note that any highscore`s that have been fixed will need removing before
you paste in the latest additions.so i recommend downloading the unofficial
highscore.dat file.

To use the highscore .dat file just unzip the contents of
the zip file into the same directory as your mame.exe is in. Some highscores
will not save properly unless the relevent nvram file is deleted first. Also
most old .hi files saved when mame supported highscore saving will not work
with the highscore.dat file (Mame stopped supporting highscore saves at about
v36 beta 14)
