Yes, it happened to me like described in subject:
I'm using Daphn Loader 2.1.24, and when I play Space Ace Enhanced, the lives counter never decrease! It happens either with 3 o 5 lives. Didn't anyone experience that?

Ok, I managed to correct that. I noticed a discrepancy between "DaphneLoaderInfo.ini" of DLoader 1.2 and "Config.xml" file of late DLoader. I noticed that the banks 0 and 1 values for each "Lives per credit" item seem incorrect:


New XML values (NOT working in Loader 2.1.24):
---------------------------------------------------
<listbox title="Lives per credit" id="LB_LPC">
<item name="3 lives / credit" id="LPC_3" >
<or bank="0" val="32" />
</item>
<item name="5 lives / credit" id="LPC_5" >
<or bank="0" val="0" />
</item>
<item name="Unlimited lives" id="LPC_U" >
<or bank="1" val="32" />
</item>
</listbox>


Old values (working in loader 1.2):
---------------------------------------
DIPlistbox2item1name=3 lives/credit
DIPlistbox2item1bank0orvalue=32
DIPlistbox2item1bank1orvalue=4
DIPlistbox2item2name=5 lives/credit
DIPlistbox2item2bank0orvalue=0
DIPlistbox2item2bank1orvalue=4
DIPlistbox2item3name=Unlimited lives (for testing)
DIPlistbox2item3bank0orvalue=0
DIPlistbox2item3bank1orvalue=0



I've changed XML section like this:
-----------------------------------------
<listbox title="Lives per credit" id="LB_LPC">
<item name="3 lives / credit" id="LPC_3" >
<or bank="0" val="32" />
<or bank="1" val="4" />
</item>
<item name="5 lives / credit" id="LPC_5" >
<or bank="0" val="0" />
<or bank="1" val="4" />
</item>
<item name="Unlimited lives" id="LPC_U" >
<or bank="0" val="0" />
<or bank="1" val="0" />
</item>
</listbox>

according to old INI file values, and lives setting now works.
I would however to know from developers whether this fix it's correct.

Thank you.

Good work.

I've arrived at the same conclusion that you did regarding the necessary changes in the .xml file to fix the dip switches.
