Great job, gentlemen ;)
Many thanks for sharing the file!
The game reminds me a bit of the old DOS "Tanks".
Still, the game is really fun when you get used to the game system.

It attempts to do an SSL connection to the auth01.dricas.com server? If that's the case, the game will likely need to be patched to get it to go any further to trying to connect. If you're lucky, it's as easy as it was with PSO (find the function that checks the auth server and just patch it to do nothing but return success).

How it looks doesnt bother me, Death tank zwei was simply a blast to play despite its Atari VCS style graphics. Cant wait to play it

Just tried out "Mode B" in the game. Man it really changes things up! The game runs at maybe 2x or 3x the normal speed and you get random item drops (similar to Worms). There's also a shop to buy items from in-between rounds. Really digging this mode! :-)

i'm glad dee dee planet was finally dumped.
i always wanted to play this game.

thank you to pcwizard for getting the beta and everyone involved in archiving, ripping, converting, etc.

so i guess there are only a few more known dc betas that have yet to be released?
