just been having a play with wec le man i love playing it over again the soundtrack is just brill and the game is quite good gets quite hard in laps 3 and 4.
i was playing without cheat and didnt make the high score table then i played with cheat to get a much higher score but still no entry into the high scores ??
does anyone know if it even has a high score table ??
it seems odd that a high score of 500,000 is placed at top of screen yet u cant get into a high score table ???is this a possible bug or maybe an oversight by the coders / ocean ???
i was trying to beat the high score but even with using inf time cheat i came up well short....
anyone have any ideas >??
Probably just trying to be proper bastards... seen a fair few arcade games where it was possible to complete the game, and still not beat the default high score. Vigilante comes to mind, although it is possible to beat the default high by leeching a lot. Matrimelee is another, but more because of its daft scoring system than anything.
And don't get me started on stupid scoring systems... ;)
some games may have a high score without a high score table.
just one goal to try and beat ;)

WEC Le Mans doesn't have a high score table. I've completed it using an infinite time and invulnerability cheat and the highest score I can achieve is around 208,000 - so I reckon the high score is impossible to beat. :(
I've had a look at the code and the game is programmed to always print "TOP 500000" at the top of the screen, so it's probably an oversight by the programmer.

my version of wec le mans loaded up from the gamebase cd only has inf time cheat in the loader is there another version with invulnerability ?
i reached about the same as your score Nich i reckon you are right the high score is impossible to beat especially as the game ends after the 4 laps doesnt just continue on and on like some other games.
i went into the code and changed the top score from 500,000 to a much lower score then went and played the game and waited out time once my score was higher than the "top score" on screen but as you said no high score table and when the game restarted it just reverted back to the original top score of 500,000 not the new high score that i had beaten it with by changing the code.

I uploaded my own crack of the game to NVG. You can download it via CPC Game Reviews (this forum always seems to screw up FTP links, so I can't post a working link here).
