NOTE... DIPs were updated since 0.106 which affect Bonus Life.

For versions of MAME 0.139u2 or later, DIP settings above translate as Bonus Life = None, which is not default for these versions.


Nerd detail for anyone for whom this makes sense...

 

Before 0.139u2

PORT_START /* DSW1 */

PORT_DIPNAME( 0x03, 0x03, "Bonus?" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x03, "A" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x02, "B" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x01, "C" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x00, "D" )

PORT_DIPNAME( 0x04, 0x04, DEF_STR( Unknown ) )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x04, DEF_STR( Off ) )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x00, DEF_STR( On ) )

PORT_DIPNAME( 0x08, 0x08, DEF_STR( Unknown ) )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x08, DEF_STR( Off ) )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x00, DEF_STR( On ) )

 

 

0.139u2 or later

PORT_START("DSW1")

PORT_DIPNAME( 0x0f, 0x07, DEF_STR( Bonus_Life ) )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x07, "Every 10k" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x06, "Every 20k" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x05, "Every 30k" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x04, "Every 40k" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x03, "10k only" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x02, "20k only" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x01, "30k only" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x00, "40K only" )

PORT_DIPSETTING( 0x0f, DEF_STR( None ) )

 

 

... 0x03 + 0x04 + 0x08 = 0x0f.

 

Quod Errata Demonstrandum?

Quod Erat Nostradamus??

So for 0.139 and later the "Bonus Life" is "None"? or am I missing something.... @terencew

 

According to MAME source, yeah... to be precise, 0.140 or later - the change happened on a partial update to 0.139.

Thank god they don't do those partials any more.

 

Will play a few games on 0.106 tomorrow... it's nearly 4am over here, and my stupid head can't focus long enough to get past 10k to check!

 

But simply put, if you can see scores associated with the Bonus DIP, and not just letters, then best set to "None"

Add a fourth guy to Rob's post who said "And dogs...got to sneak my family dog in!" The game feels more like a novelty event than an actual game. Cheery and silly. The high score strobe made me feel like I was at an Arcade Rave party.

Pacific Novelty co. Circa 1982:

 

"Lets make a Donkey Kong clone"

"No. I want a Frogger clone"

"No. I want a Jungle Hunt clone"

 

After a night of cheap Tequila and a dodgy batch of LSD.

 

"Why not make all 3"

 

and throw in a Tron-style screen selection for good measure :D

Gorf doesn't make me laugh. This game does. It's a 4 in 1 as well ... Frogger, Donkey Kong, Moon Patrol and Jungle King. Gorf is great sounds and unfancy game play ... :sleep

I'd love to find one of these cabs, but they're rarer than hen's teeth. I saw one for sale online not too long ago, but it was converted to something else.:cry

 

It would be great to have the real cab of this game. Extremely rare and it does embody various other classic games into his one. Hope you can dig one up. Craigslist history might be helpful. And then a photo in this thread in 2 years time of your restoration. Not hoping for too much eh? ... :rolleyes

The strobe worked alright. You got blinded and forgot your screenshot ... :o

As per the post from Terence, I checked the 106 Bonus A, and it is NONE for later versions of MAME. So what Terence has posted is correct. NONE is the bonus, meaning you get no bonus. Please make sure you play your games at this setting. Now back to being a mighty flea!
