Hi folks,

I was finally able to make a standalone Death Tank Zwei rip . The game was freezing when it tried to access the audio tracks, that's what I understood when I looked at .

Well here ya go !

Get it at my Death Tank Fan Page. FTP owners, feel free to host it.

Death Tank One is still my favorite...

Nice work man. I'll give this a burn tomorrow evening. Quick question though, is this from the PAL version or the NTSC version? Or does it even matter?

Edit: Also does your Death Tank One iso have the audio tracks?

 Djidjo May 15, 2003
I think it doesn't matter whether it's PAL or NTSC, except the game is faster in NTSC (60fps instead of 50). DT Zwei must be PAL though because Satourne tells me it's 384x240 (PAL) and not 384x224 (NTSC).

The Death Tank One ISO doesn't have any audio track. It doesn't need any.

This is cool. But as I've already burned DT One, I'm kinda weary of burning Zwei as well without knowing if I'll really like Zwei that much better than the first one in the end.

Could you provide a definite answer as to what the differences between DT and DT Zwei really are? In regard to gfx/sound, but particularly in terms of gameplay? I'd like to know every detail if possible...

 Djidjo May 15, 2003
You want to know all the differences just to spare 1 CD ?

Well here's what I know (I played DT Zwei just twice) :

- Hard rock music and funny colors

- Nukes make the screen blank a short time

- Earthquakes when the round lasts long put mountains down (to avoid endless final 2-player duel, I suppose) <_<

- 7 player instead of 6 with the rainbow tank

- "Blitz rounds" sometimes : you can shoot much faster like 2 bombs per second <_<

- 50% more gain when you get a groovy (=you kill everybody) <_<

- every player is given 10$ if he didn't win anything during the round

- strange glowing things in the terrain sometimes, don't know what it is though.

Most important :

- Hover Coil is cheaper (125 instead of 200) but is limited in time <_< and you can fly higher with it (the only limit is the screen)

- You can throw rolling mines like normal bombs ! This makes them MUCH more powerful weapons.

I haven't played around much with Death Tank.

Just tried out the first rip briefly

Do you all think DT is better than Worms Armeddon/World Party?

maybe should find an ntsc version from the usa copy of duke?

djidjo i noticed your web server isnt quite too fast, so just in case ppl are so lame they cant stand to grab a 1 meg file slowly, heres a mirror, http://jurai.free.fr/DeathTank2.rar...

No problem, Jurai.

Worms is definately a better game because it was not a minigame like Death Tank was.

But Death Tank is, I would say, just as fun as playing worms. The more people, the more fun. That's what I think of Death Tank. Unlike Worms on the PC where you have to crowd onto one keyboard.
