To access the settings menu, hold Player 1 Start while turning the cabinet on. Release the button when the on-screen prompt tells you to continue.
Free Play and Permanent High Scores
Free Play allows Green Beret / Rush'n Attack to start without inserting coins while retaining traditional Coin-Up operation as an available setting.
Supported score data is stored using serial EEPROM, so batteries and NVRAM are not required for saved scores. The kit saves the Top 10 supported scores with player initials.
Separate score tables are supported for 2, 3, and 4 lives settings, helping keep score results organized across different gameplay configurations.
Rush'n Attack and Green Beret Graphics Selection
This kit supports both Rush'n Attack and Green Beret graphics. The graphics ROM selection can be changed through the menu, allowing the same compatible Konami hardware setup to display the preferred regional graphics set.
The gameplay remains on original Konami arcade hardware. The kit does not convert the cabinet into an emulation system or reproduction board.
God Mode, Flip Screen, and Operator Settings
God Mode allows practice with unlimited lives while score saving is disabled. This gives players a way to learn later sections without affecting saved high score tables.
Flip Screen rotates the display 180 degrees through the menu when needed for supported cabinet or monitor setups.
Menu-driven DIP settings allow supported options to be adjusted through the on-screen interface instead of relying only on physical switch changes.
