P-47 Aces is a good shooter IMO, but there's problem in the dipswitches. In the service mode, into the dipswitches, there are some dipswitches present, but some are absent in MAME. For example, theres supposed to be Campaign mode and Tumo Pinfu in the MAME Dipswitches, but are missing! And some aren't corressrounding correctly, an example would that be the demo sounds, in the service mode, it says it's off, but in the MAME dipswitches, it's on! Heres some pictures of it

Re: P-47 Aces Dipswitches
I took a brief look at this last night and dip switches don't make sense with the config screen. DIP1 is entirely used by the coin settings for both players, free play, and test mode, and demo sound is actually on DIP2.

Re: P-47 Aces Dipswitches
MAME Testers says theres no action required since they say the test/service mode is unfinished. What is campaign mode and tumo pinfu by the way?
Re: P-47 Aces Dipswitches
tumo pinfu definitely refers to mahjong. campain mode, I couldn't say.

Re: P-47 Aces Dipswitches
"Tsumo pinfu" is a common rule variation in mahjong, and exactly the kind of thing that would be set via a dip switch in a mahjong arcade game.
Doing a quick Google search, it looks like "Tsumo Pinfu" and "Campaign Mode" are both dip switch settings in Idol Janshi Suchie-Pai Special, also developed by Jaleco. I wonder if some amount of P-47 Aces's code (or at least the service mode UI) was reused from that mahjong game and never changed?

That seems like a reasonable assessment.MAME Testers says theres no action required since they say the test/service mode is unfinished.

Re: P-47 Aces Dipswitches
MAME Testers was right, there is no campaign mode and tumo pinfu in this game, why is the service mode have the same serivce mode code in the mahjong arcade game?! It makes no sense. I thought it would be another mode that can enabled and disabled that has new enemies, weapons, and stage designs. I'm guess im going to get over with it, and move on.

Re: P-47 Aces Dipswitches
On real hardware , for demo sounds to be ON , we should move up in DIP SWITCH BANK 3 two buttons (4,5)
