NeoLemmix Player

Quick compatibility note: Virtually any content that is compatible with V1.48(-B) or V10.010.XXX, should also be compatible with V10.011.XXX. Nonetheless, because this isn't 100% guaranteed, NeoLemmix V10.011.XXX will give a compatibility warning the first time you attempt to run any pack that isn't built for V10.011.XXX.

On the core side, Vxx.011.xxx brings a few fixes to physics bugs. The impact of these is extremely minor - across all of my released packs (623 levels, some of which also have talisman replays) a total of four replays broke - two in Lemmings Plus Omega and two in Doomsday Lemmings - none of which required changes to the levels themself, just new replays.

The Lemmings Plus IV graphic sets have been updated to add backgrounds to them. Wasteland has two backgrounds (one which is general-purpose and the other is only suitable for non-vertical-scrolling levels), the others have one each.

On the features side, the most significant feature is the added ability to insert and delete actions in a replay, rather than having to completely redo the replay from the point where you want to change something. You can press the Replay Insert Mode hotkey (default key: W) to toggle insert mode on and off; when it's on, the red R icon will change to blue, and any new actions will be inserted into the replay without deleting later actions. If you want to remove actions, press E to bring up a list of all actions in the replay, where you can select any action and delete it. Be careful with these - although they don't delete later entries from the file, the presence of a different action at an earlier time can still affect how well these later actions work.

Skill assignments can now also be queued for a short time (about half a second game-time). If you attempt to assign a skill when it can't be assigned, the attempt will be remembered for a few frames and if it becomes possible, it will be assigned as soon as it is. For example, suppose you attempt to assign a builder to a faller who's about to hit the ground; he'll remember this and start building as soon as he hits the ground (assuming it's within the half-second allowance).

Clear Physics mode has a couple of minor improvements. If you mouseover a blocker while Clear Physics Mode is active, the direction he is facing will be indicated. (Note to self / Nepster: Shouldn't this be added for diggers too?). An object type indicator for water has also been added.

The mass replay test, in prior versions, to save time it would terminate testing any given replay as soon as the save requirement was met (and thus the replay could be confirmed to pass the level). There was one issue with this - it would mean the tester couldn't be used to properly test some types of talisman replays. This update somewhat improves this. Although it still won't report whether a talisman was achieved or not, if there are any unobtained talismans on the level being tested, this termination will not occur and the replay testing will continue until all lemmings die, time runs out, or a significant amount of time (5 minutes game time, IIRC) passes without any actions being taken. So - you can test talisman replays by deleting the save file (or just the talismans obtained part of it), then running the mass replay test on the talisman replays, and seeing which ones have been unlocked.


-B Hotfix: Fixes a bug where NeoLemmix crashes (except in mass replay test mode) at the start of any level containing preplaced blockers.
-C Hotfix: Fixes a bug where NeoLemmix generates an error message (not crash-causing but extremely annoying) when the level area is clicked in, on a level which has no skills in the skillset.
-D Hotfix: Fixes a bug where NeoLemmix may crash after using a bomber (and quite likely a stoner, too). This bug is very rare, it's only been noted to happen for one user on one specific pack but theoretically it should have always happened when using them. At any rate, the -D hotfix fixes it.

Standard version: http://www.neolemmix.com/old/NeoLemmix.exe
Alt version: http://www.neolemmix.com/old/NeoLemmixAlt.exe

(In most cases you should use the Standard version. In some cases, issues with certain recording software or with Linux+WINE may be resolved by using the Alt version, but the Alt version does not support windowed mode.)

Flexi Toolkit

The Flexi Toolkit update has removed support for music packs (NeoLemmix itself still supports them for now but they are considered deprecated). It also marks packs as compatible with NeoLemmix V10.011.XXX. Aside from these, there are no changes.

-B Hotfix: Fixes the error when trying to delete or extract music files.

Graphic Set Tool

There is no Graphic Set Tool update to V10.011.XXX, the existing version V10.010.XXX remains fully compatible with the new version of NeoLemmix. There has been a recent V10.010.011 update that adds a feature to mass-rename the pieces in the graphic set.

Download: http://www.neolemmix.com/old/gstool.zip

Uploaded GSTool V10.010.011. This adds a Mass Rename dialog (found under "Tools" on the menu bar), which can be used to quickly give names to all pieces. It is strongly recommended you give pieces names; even though current NL versions do not use them, it will make things much simpler to convert when new formats come into use.

EDIT: If you have multiple related terrain pieces (eg: "block_01", "block_02" etc), instead of numbering them manually, just put a # at the end (eg: call them all "block_#"). The conversion tool for new formats will recognize this and number them appropriately. (And in the current version, the names don't matter - assigning them is a futureproofing thing.)

Since the new version will no longer be a "pick one pack each time you run" structure, but rather have level selection more akin to that of Lemmini or Lix,

Yay! This is one of my favorite features of Lemmini and Lix. Glad to hear it's coming to NeoLemmix.

Yet another player hotfix.

This fixes a crash that theoretically should occur whenever a bomber is used. It theoretically should also occur whenever a stoner is used. At least, based on the code. In practice, it only occurred for one user, on one specific NXP; so for most people this update won't matter. But if you are getting crashes when using bombers (or stoners), even if only on certain packs, this hotfix should fix it.

(I didn't mention this but probably should have - with all of the hotfixes, including this one, the -alt version was updated too.)
