Lemmings Main / Re: Favorite Graphic Set
« on: August 21, 2004, 02:23:44 AM »
Bricks, Crystal, Fire, Pink and Dirt.

Almost all my best levels are designed in Brick style(such as Castle Of Oblivion, from Ultimate Challenge 5), or harder versions of Brick style levels(such as The Blasted Road To Lemming High, from the Fewer Builders Challenge).

Crystal is the most commonly overlooked style. For some reason I don't like big levels using it, but it's great for small levels - see "Without What Is Needed"(Ultimate Challenge 1 or Lemmings Plus 2) for a great example.

Fire is an interesting style. It has almost every terrain piece shape you'd need. One of the more overlooked but quite good Ultimate Challenge levels, "The Three Lemmings", uses Fire style for flat platforms, while another one, "Dungeon Of Oblivion", adapts the Oblivion trick into it. The possibility for this style is almost endless.

Pink, I can't really say exactly why it's cool. The colour, maybe.

And Dirt. Although I don't really find it suitable for hard levels, it's pretty much the only style that is good for making any shape without it looking like it's made of blocks.

Lemmings Main / Re: Favourite training level?
« on: August 20, 2004, 10:57:00 PM »
I made the training levels as place-fillers. I couldn't be bothered thinking of anything else. :P

I don't know what causes problems 4 and 5, but all the levels work fine for me. I've uploaded as a ZIP, maybe it will now work better.

Levels for other engines / Re: Cheapo Level Pak topic

Check bit further down on the topic list, for the "Fewer Builders Challenge (Downloadable Pack)" topic, for my newest pack. It's in a new topic because... it's unique!

I released a pack of 17 modified versions of my lemmings levels, with less builders. Look in the Level Designing board for more information.

Levels for other engines / Fewer Builders Challenge (Downloadable Pack)
« on: August 20, 2004, 11:37:32 AM »
You can now download, as a pack, all the levels that are suitable for Fewer Builders Challenge, with the minimal builders. If I remember correctly(and I probably don't), there are 17 levels. Download it at Lemming Crazy. Good luck, a lot of the levels(especially the last few) are extremely hard - definately worthy of being in Ultimate Challenge 6 or higher... except they're not in any Ultimate Challenge(although two levels were taken from Ultimate Challenge), they're in Fewer Builders Challenge.

Note that three of these cannot be done with the original levels from the packs. These are:

Unpossible! - The original level does not have enough climbers for this solution to be executed.
Complications: Extreme - Some terrain was moved over by four pixels. Without this move, the level is impossible.
Tetra Oblivion - The original level is lacking many of the needed skills for this solution to be executed.

In Development / Re: Lemmings Plus - Fewest Builders

Who would have thought?

By giving extra tools, one of the Oblivion levels can qualify for a part in the less builders challenge! To be exact, Temple Of Oblivion. Castle Of Oblivion doesn't have the right terrain, and Oblivion already has the fewest builders it can.

With 30 Floaters, 30 Blockers(I only used 29 though), 1 Builder, 5 Bashers, 5 Miners(well 3 actually, maybe even 2, but I'm going to give 5 in the release) and 5 Diggers, it is possible to acheive 30 out of 30 on Temple Of Oblivion! It took me a few attempts to find and execute this solution correctly though. The good thing is though, it involves no precision or timing operations, except the low-medium (somewhere inbetween, lol) precision required for the Oblivion trick. (Yes, even though it's a fewest builders challenge solution, it still uses the Oblivion trick, PLUS more freed blockers that aren't part of the trick)

I've made the pack, although I still have to look through Ultimate Challenge for some extra ones. Anyway, for people attempting them either way, here's some tips:

-Practice your bomber timing. You need it for Funny 4, Strange 11 and Neutral 2.
-Try stretching your builders out, although there's only one level as far as I remember that this is any important.
-Practice pixel precision. This is required at least twice.

I can confirm that the solution I thought of for "The Lemming Gun" will not work. However, with a slight terrain modification, an eight builder save 76 solution can be done. So I will put that in the pack.

And Insane Steve. I'd have expected more out of you with that Lemming High one. I mean, it freakin' uses one of your favourite tricks, FIVE OR SIX TIMES!
