0.147u1 [?]

0.74u2 [R. Belmont]

0.37b13 [Testdriver]


WIP:

- 0.178: Changed description of clone (US?) to 'Task Force Harrier (US)'.

- 0.155: David Haywood added note about Task Force Harrier dipswitches.

- 0.147u1: Swapped Task Force Harrier sets, there's no copyright notice in both and by MAME rules the original UPL version should be parent [Angelo Salese]. Changed clone (Japan) to parent 'Task Force Harrier' and 'Task Force Harrier' to clone 'Task Force Harrier (US?)'. Renamed (tharrier) to (tharrieru) and (tharrierj) to (tharrier).

- 0.141: hap fixed memory_set_bank called for unknown bank 'bank1'.

- 0.133u1: Brian Troha added DIP locations to Task Force Harrier. Renamed (tharierj) to (tharrierj).

- 0.122u1: David Haywood and Tomasz Slanina fixed Task Force Harrier - Game now playable. Changed VSync to 56Hz.

- 0.90: Brian Troha fixed Task Force Harrier dips. Added dipswitch 'Demo Sounds', 'Coin A/B', 'Cabinet', 'Difficulty', 'Bonus Life' and 'Lives'.

- 0.80u2: Task Force Harrier improvements [Tomasz Slanina]: Fixed sprite rendering. Added hacks for bg scrolling. Patched some protection issues (sprites are rendered, no more strange resets). Game is NOT playable (controls doesn't work). Maybe something is not mapped correctly or it's problem with protection (for example, Player2 buttons works durning boot - it's possible to enter service mode).

- 12th December 2003: Tomasz Slanina - Fix protection of sprites (enemies/players), fixed in-game resets (protection), added hack for bg scroll and better video hw emulation (sprites). Todo: controls (protection...) - Game is not playable yet.

- 0.75: Added clone Task Force Harrier (Japan). Added proms 21, 22 and 24.bpr.

- 0.74u2: Added 'Task Force Harrier' (UPL (American Sammy license) 1989).

- 16th October 2002: R. Belmont added sound emulation to Thunder Dragon bootleg, Many Block and Task Force Harrier.

- 0.37b13: Added (Testdriver) Task Force Harrier.

- 7th April 2001: Chackn from Team Japump dumped Task Force Harrier (Japan).

- 4th March 2001: Bryan McPhail and David Haywood added some more NMK games to the Bombjack Twin driver but they all suffer from unemulated protection and don't work very well.
