additional information
info 0.30 [Chris Hardy]

SETUP:
  • To have the high score table properly initialized, the first time you run the game you should go into the dip switch menu, set World Records to Erase on Reset, reset the game (F3), and the set the dip switch backto Don't Erase.
WIP:
  • 0.126u4: Aaron Giles fixed access violation in clone Atlant Olimpic.
  • 0.125u2: Aaron Giles restructured input port internals and cleaned up inptport. Removed gross hacks in Track & Field NVRAM. These may be broken as a result.
  • 0.123u1: Zsolt Vasvari removed color tables from Track & Field. Added resnet.c color computations where appropriate. Fixed gfx1/2 rom loading. Changed palettesize to 512 colors.
  • 0.88u5: Thierry Lescot fixed rom filenames in the Hyper Olympic clones.
  • 0.87u3: Pierpaolo Prazzoli added clone Atlant Olimpic (bootleg 1996).
  • 11th April 2002: Stephane Humbert fixed the inputs in the Track 'n Field driver.
  • 0.58: Full VLM5030 sound emulation. Samples are no longer needed.
  • 22nd January 2002: Tatsuyuki Satoh fixed the noise generator in the VLM5030 sound chip emulation, completely removing the need for samples.
  • 21st January 2002: Tatsuyuki Satoh submitted a new, much improved version of the VLM5030 sound chip emulation, used for speech in (Super) Punch-Out and a few other drivers. It is now more than 90% accurate to the original, and only a few small problems remain.
  • 1st April 2000: Guru - Dumped Track 'n Field (Bootleg).
  • 0.34b7: Nicola Salmoria added clone Track & Field (Centuri).
  • 0.34b3: Nicola Salmoria added ADPCM sample playback to the bootleg Hyper Olympic.
  • 0.34b2: David Winter added clone Hyper Olympic (bootleg), which uses ADPCM samples instead of speech synthesys. Currently Hyper Olympic (bootleg) uses the sound ROMs and sound driver from the original version, it doesn't emulate the real board ADPCM samples since one ROM is missing.
  • 0.33b7: Changed description to 'Track & Field' and 'Hyper Olympic'.
  • 0.33b6: Tatuyuki Satoh fixed bug in VLM5030 emulator which caused samples not to work.
  • 0.31: The first time you play Track'n Field and Hyper Sports the high scores are automatically initialized to the default. Your old high scores will NOT be be lost here.
  • 0.30: Chris Hardy added Track'n'Field (Konami 1983) and clone Hyper Olympics (Konami 1983). Based on drivers from Juno First emulator by Chris Hardy.

- TRIVIA -


Released in October 1983.


This game is known in US as "Track and Field".


This game is a resounding success, especially amongst real-life athletes who live to take out their aggression on animate or inanimate objects. The game inspires an all-new level of two-player competition in arcades.


The song that is heard at the high score screen and at the commendation screen is 'Chariots of fire' which was written by Vangelis.


- UPDATES -


Later versions of this game replace the two 'Run' buttons with a trackball.


The bootleg version features different speech, as the original sound hardware could not be totally hacked - the slightly different voices are allegedly those of the bootleggers themselves! Also, it contains a typo : the word HEIGHT replaces the original HIGHT.


- TIPS AND TRICKS -


* Hidden Bonus : When you get to the javelin throw, run fast and then hold the angle button down, making the javelin soar high into the air. If it gets high enough, it'll hit a bird, which will fall and give you 1000 points.


* Hidden Bonus 2 : On the high jump, if you fail your first two jumps then qualify on the third, a little mole pops up and you get a bonus.


* Hidden Bonus 3 : In the 100 metres, if you manage to get a dead heat with the computer (i.e. the same time) you get a 1000 point bonus.

60000000:0000:00000000:00000000  On the High Jump it's best to disable the Speed cheat and
60000000:0000:00000000:00000000  use the Superman cheat. The Take steroids cheat is better
60000000:0000:00000000:00000000  than the Full Speed cheat but you must be careful with it
60000000:0000:00000000:00000000  incase you run off the pitch!
