[QUOTE="Espy, post: 175530, member: 3553"] I'd imagine this would be impossible for the very reason that your score isn't always displayed. TPA "reads" what is going on in the game via image analysis of the DMD, if I understand correctly. So it pulls it from the final score screen at the end of the game. So as the score isn't displayed at all times, the game technically doesn't know what the score is at all times. The machine ROM does, but not TPA! It's the joys of trying to interpret decades-old software. I may be talking nonsense, someone correct me if I'm wrong. [/QUOTE]
