I am setting up a daphne cabinet for Space Ace.

I want to confirm if this is correct.

in the skill level select config. Is this correct?

skill 1 = cadet
skill 2 = captain
skill 3 = ace

or is it the other way around?

skill 1 = ace
skill 2 = captain
skill 3 = cadet.

please let me know. I could not find a answer on this question. thanks,

Where are you looking that indicates skill 1, 2, and 3? I couldn't find anything like that.

button configuration in Daphne. Were you can select which keyboard button you want to represent a function in the game.

In the button configuration section you can set which keyboard buttons to push for skill level.

There is 3 choices:

skill 1 =
skill 2 =
skill 3 =

I just need to know what the skills represent.

Does "skill 1" = "Space Ace" or "Captain" or "Cadet"

I just need to know what the skills represent (i.e cadet, ace, captain) , so I can wire and mount up the 3 LED Arcade cabinet buttons.

Hope that is a bit clearer on what I was asking. Thanks,

I just verified this.

Skill 1 is cadet, 2 is captain, 3 is ace.

As seen in: http://www.daphne-emu.com/cgi-bin/viewc ... &view=auto

(The relevant stuff in the source code has been high-lighted for those who are curious)

// the ASCII key words that the parser looks at for the key values
// NOTE : these are in a specific order, corresponding to the enum in daphne.h
const char *g_key_names[] =
{
"KEY_UP", "KEY_LEFT", "KEY_DOWN", "KEY_RIGHT", "KEY_START1", "KEY_START2", "KEY_BUTTON1",
"KEY_BUTTON2", "KEY_BUTTON3", "KEY_COIN1", "KEY_COIN2", "KEY_SKILL1", "KEY_SKILL2",
"KEY_SKILL3"
, "KEY_SERVICE", "KEY_TEST", "KEY_RESET", "KEY_SCREENSHOT", "KEY_QUIT", "KEY_PAUSE"
};

// default key assignments, in case .ini file is missing
// Notice each switch can have two keys assigned to it
// NOTE : These are in a specific order, corresponding to the enum in daphne.h
int g_key_defs[SWITCH_COUNT][2] =
{
{ SDLK_UP, SDLK_KP8 }, // up
{ SDLK_LEFT, SDLK_KP4 }, // left
{ SDLK_DOWN, SDLK_KP2 }, // down
{ SDLK_RIGHT, SDLK_KP6 }, // right
{ SDLK_1, 0 }, // 1 player start
{ SDLK_2, 0 }, // 2 player start
{ SDLK_SPACE, SDLK_LCTRL }, // action button 1
{ SDLK_LALT, 0 }, // action button 2
{ SDLK_LSHIFT, 0 }, // action button 3
{ SDLK_5, SDLK_c }, // coin chute left
{ SDLK_6, 0 }, // coin chute right
{ SDLK_KP_DIVIDE, 0 }, // skill easy
{ SDLK_KP_MULTIPLY, 0 }, // skill medium
{ SDLK_KP_MINUS, 0 }, // skill hard
{ SDLK_9, 0 }, // service coin
{ SDLK_F2, 0 }, // test mode
{ SDLK_F3, 0 }, // reset cpu
{ SDLK_F12, SDLK_F11 }, // take screenshot
{ SDLK_ESCAPE, SDLK_q }, // Quit DAPHNE
{ SDLK_p, 0 }, // pause game
};

I am wondering if anyone has had any success with creating an interface board to plug the ribbon cable from the LED scoreboard into to allow Daphne to display lives/score directly to an original LED display?

Hello,

I'm running Space ace on Daphne with Retropie/Arpicade jamma adapter in my cabinet.

In my previous Space ace cab, I was able to set the dip switches to service mode with unlimited lives (which allowed all levels to be played). Is there a similar way to set this up in Daphne? Pressing F2 does not appear to enter game into service mode.

Thanks
