NeoLemmix Levels / Re: [NeoLemmix] Lemmings Cranium (150 levels) [Difficulty: Medium-Extreme]

The solutions aren't intended, but a lot of the required elements are there, so it should be easily patched and easy enough for you to re-solve - good work!

NeoLemmix Main / Re: List of Objects that need to be changed to "Paint" objects

This is more of a custom thing, but I've seen levels where the Christmas lights are used "only on terrain" to make a large Christmas tree decorated with lights.  Granted this could be supported by having two light objects: a regular one for a hanging decoration and a paint one.

SuperLemmix Bugs & Suggestions / Re: [SUG] Return of the Stoner...
« on: June 24, 2023, 06:42:32 AM »
I personally see the Freezer as a stand-in for the Blocker more than the Stoner, although of course it's not totally the same since the ice block can be climbed over.  It could be interesting in puzzles with zombies, since I assume a frozen lemming can't be infected.  The aforementioned Stacker/Stoner trick can be done without frame stepping - it just requires good timing (the moment a lemming turns from hitting a wall and after it has stacked 4 bricks).

There are a few tactical situations where a Stoner is more suitable... besides it taking only one Basher or Miner stroke to clear so other lemmings in the crowd don't turn around while the tunnel is being dug, a Stoner notably cannot be climbed over due to its shape.  It does have some weird interactions with Sliders though if I recall.

It is true otherwise that a Freezer is generally more useful as you can save the lemming.

I guess I only had an opinion on this because Lemmings Cranium was ported by a third party and some levels are impossible to complete as a result. Otherwise I don't really have an opinion on this - I have no counters to your points so I admit defeat in this debate.

I second this - there are a few subtle differences between the Stoner and Freezer so that one can't easily be replaced with the other.  One thing is that you can't do the Stacker/Stoner trick to make a large step, nor can a Miner clear an ice block on flat ground with a single swing.  The fact that the Stoner is sacrificial too adds an element of strategy too, while the Freezer acts closer to a Blocker than a Stoner.  I say keep both, like how both the Bomber and Timebomber are available.

SuperLemmix / [SLX] Lemmings Cranium SLX Edition - 150 Levels (Difficulty: Very Hard)
« on: June 23, 2023, 04:13:15 AM »
With special thanks to jkapp76 for converting the level pack.  Lemmings Cranium is now available for SuperLemmix.  Attachment is at the bottom of this post.

Please note that is largely unofficial and a few levels have confirmed to be unsolvable due to the Stoner being replaced with the Freezer.  There may be other faults that have yet to be identified.

Full details of the pack can be found on the NeoLemmix post here.

Note: The music ZIP is quite a hefty 50 MB download and can be found here on Dropbox.

v1.03 has been released.  A lot of backroute fixes in this one.  Get the latest version from the first post of this topic.

Yep, it's a backroute, and difficult to fix too.

A backroute if only because the one-way arrows don't reach low enough!

EDIT: Actually it's badly broken.  Have to think hard.

Indeed, a backroute - should be fixable though.  Good work!

Curiously, did you manage to get the levels with the special tilesets to work?

That is the intention of the level.  Stonecrest Bay is meant to be a traditional level though.  I think I have a way to fix it though.

Now I understand why BulletRide put one-way arrows up there in their version.  Both are backroutes - hmph!
