While making this scoring system I have to create new maps for roms and this is fairly time consuming and it's pretty boring and it's getting in the way of other work.
I added Cheech & Chong which also covers Harley Davidson yesterday, but probably spent most of the evening doing stuff around that one game and Sorcerer.
Sorcerer that I added (System 9) this game doesn't have last scores, but I have hacked around that using the Digits (Reel values) so I would say every game will be supported even if it comes down to a hack like that.
So, after all that and the practice I've had in creating mappings searching for scores in the ram I had to make a UI, which should save an enormous amount of time because I was also hand writing these mapping files.
The mappings can also do adjustments / audits, but I haven't been worried about those yet and will more than likely add to this UI in the long run. I'm just interested in mapping the last game played and high scores.
This is the main branch for map files but doesn't seem interested in take the pull requests. There's going to be hundreds more coming so it's whatever, they are on my fork anyway along with a different parsing library.
I just need to finish a few more things with this auto mapping score search, then maybe some of you would like to test a rom or two.
