I finally got my Galaga resto project done. IT TURNED OUT GREAT!

I'm just setting it up and need to know how the DIPS were set from the factory.
How many ships did you start with? When was the extra life? etc etc.......
Or maybe I should say, what is the official "Twin Galaxies approved" DIP setting for this machine?
THANKS!

TG Marathon settings are Rank "D" (this is because it is the only rank that allows you to play Round 256 and beyond as normal, the others all result in funky shit happening, kill screen, bonus round enemies firing, etc) and 3 ships to start with extra ships at 20k and then every 70k after (although after 1m all extra ships cease regardless).

TG Tournament settings are Rank "D" with 5 ships only, no extras.

Thanks Steve,
This is exactly what I wanted to know...
So curious, what would a "typical arcade" Back in the Day had the machine set to?
