MAME Info:
0.36b14 [Vernon C. Brooks]
0.36b4 [?]
WIP:
- 0.133u1: Renamed (tankfrc4) to (tankfrce4) and (tankfrcj) to (tankfrcej).
- 0.131u1: sxevious and David Haywood fixed player controls in clone Tank Force (US, 4 Player) (thanks to a tip posted by sxevious).
- 0.125u6: Some progress on clone Tank Force (US, 4 Player) inputs [David Haywood].
- 0.125u5: Brian Troha added clone Tank Force (US, 4 Player). Changed parent description to 'Tank Force (US, 2 Player)'.
- 3rd June 2008: Tirino73 dumped Tank Force (US, 4 players). This romfile comes from a standard Namco System1 PCB. Note: This was a failed conversion attempt, since inputs on jamma connector don't work (only coin, mapped as follows: Player 1 coin 1 -> coin 1, player 2 coin 2 -> coin 2, player 3 coin 3 -> start 1, player 4 coin 4 -> start 2) so in game setting mode you can't change anything and then you can't play. The system is ok (tested by burning the 2 players version), so the original design for this game version uses extra hardware for 4 players input management.
- 0.36b14: Vernon C. Brooks added Tank Force (US) (Namco 1991) and clone (Japan).
- 29th December 1999: Vernon C. Brooks got Tank Force (Namco System 1) partially working but it has wrong colors.
- 0.36b4: Added Tank Force (Japan) (Testdriver).
