Night Driver Bonus Time

Post by Cybergoth »

Hi there!

There's a little thing I don't understand about Night Driver. So when its special rules say:

Dip switch settings must be set to submit recording:PlayingTime="100"
TrackSet ="Normal"
BonusTime="No"

How is it then, that all the top recordings for this game clearly show that the players received a bonus time?

You must understand "START playing time =100", and if you're good enough then you can get a bonus time like in a lot of games

Hi there!

But I think that one shouldn't get a bonus time, when according to the rules you have to set the DIP switch "BonusTime" to "No".

In the Night Driver Arcade Service manual which can be downloaded here:
http://www.arcadedocs.com/vidmanuals/N/NightDriver.pdf
Is a diagram + explanation for the DIP-Switch settings on page 10.

As understand this, you get a bonus time when reaching a score of 350 or better if it is activated, and no bonus time when it's deactivated (as requested by the rules).

Greetings,
Manuel
