changedUnfortunately, we received a cease-and-desist notice from Garage Software, inc. for using sound assets from their 'Band' software without their permission. Thus, in this update, we have hastily replaced all the musical instruments in the game's soundtrack with versions that the developer and some of his friends hastily recorded at 4 am.
changedWe apologize for this sudden change, and will be working to further refine the music and sounds of Tanks in the coming weeks. For more information about this change, please check out our blog post here: https://tanks-thecrusades.com/tanks-sounds-updates
changedUpdate: this was an April Fools joke, and the sounds are back to normal. But if you liked the sounds, you can still use them! Download the sound pack here and extract the contents to the ~/.tanks/resources folder, such that the "music" and "sound" folders are in there. If the resources folder doesn't exist, make it yourself!
