| Summary | 07648: dkong3: Description of DIPs in MAME does not match arcade manual | ||||
| Description |
MAME describes the Difficulty DIPs for Donkey Kong 3 (dkong3) as follows: Easy Medium Hard Hardest The arcade manual describes them as follows (see page 25 of attached PDF): Easy (1) (2) (3) Hard (4) This has caused confusion when comparing MAME vs. Arcade performances as the two "Hard" difficulties do not match. Recommend renaming MAME DIPs to match the arcade manual. Might be worth making the following changes as well: Lives ---> Number of Players Per Game Bonus Life ---> Extra Additional Bonus ---> Additional Extra |

| Steps To Reproduce | Examine DIPs in the menu in any version of MAME. | ||||

I changed difficulty to numbers 1,2,3,4 will keep using the default "DEF_STR" for the other settings. |
