If you would like a dedicated board for your project (such as currently exist for Lix, NeoLemmix and SuperLemmini), please request it in this topic. You will have moderator access on the board for your project *only* (unless you're already a global moderator, of course); within reason you can request that specific other users get it for your board too.

The following requirements exist for getting a dedicated board:
- The project must be released in some form, and not just a demo. It doesn't have to be a final version, but it does have to exist.
- Dedicated boards are not available for projects which are simply level packs. Yes, even Lemmings Plus doesn't get one.
- Obviously, the project must be Lemmings-related. Replacing the lemmings with another creature is fine, of course.
- The project doesn't nessecerially need to be a Lemmings / IRS engine of some kind. For example, a level editor may qualify if its sole (or primary) purpose is Lemmings levels.
- More than one project can share a dedicated board if they're related; for example, the NeoLemmix player and the NeoLemmix Editor.
- Absolutely in no case will a dedicated board be made for a project that isn't free. (I mean free-as-in-beer here; it doesn't have to be open-source.) Accepting donations or ad-supported still counts as "free", but the free-to-play model does not. Inbetween cases will be judged on a case-by-case basis; for example, an otherwise-free ad-supported project with an option to pay to remove ads will most likely be fine, but a game where only single-player is free yet the focus is clearly on multiplayer will most likely not get a dedicated board here.

(To avoid doubt - you are allowed to create topics on the "Other Projects" board about projects that don't meet the requirements for a dedicated board.)

Cartoon Network is freaking legendary, or at least, their older shows (and Adventure Time) are. These days, while I don't literally watch them on TV (or at least not on broadcast TV), the only shows I really watch much are South Park and Family Guy, though. *cue the creators of South Park hunting me down for grouping these two together*

Still, chances are it'll be a while before something entertains me as much as this did the first time I saw it...

Wow. It's been ages since there's been any LPIII news - mostly because LPO has been in development / released - but I just now received a replay from the first person to beat Dodgy 18. Well done DynaLem!

Fierce 16 still remains unsolved, as do the mentioned bonus pack levels. (Or at least, if they've been solved, I'm not aware of them having been solved.)

EDIT: Received a replay showing Fierce 16 being beaten as well. This means that now, the only one of my packs with remaining unbeaten levels is the LPIII bonus pack - all LPO levels have already been beaten.

Is it possible to use the database to transfer only certain parts? Then I would be in favor of transferring the accounts and PMs as of January 2014 using the database and get the rest (i.e. the posts) by hand.
This way most of us could just continue as usual and only a few newly joined members have to register anew (which the most active ones, i.e. exit, NaOH and myself, already did).

Yes, this is definitely possible. How easy it will be is another matter, though without a doubt easier than importing the entire database then adding the missing bits since. Especially importing the user accounts could be messy if it's done without wiping the ones already there; as far as PMs go, there is always the option of manually importing what's available of a user's PM's on request (from the January database). It's possible it may not correctly link who the PM is from, but I could possibly get around this by having them listed in the database as coming from no account (or if that doesn't work, my own account or a dummy account set up for that purpose) and add a note at the start of them saying "PM originaly from (blahblah)". Just for peace of mind; this can be done completely automated without me having to specifically look at and modify the contents of them.

Either way; there is nothing I can do about PMs more recently than the January backup. You'll have to back those up in some form yourself - one thing I could suggest is PM copies of them to yourself on the new board, if you don't want to save them offline. (Yes, you can send PMs to yourself, on both this board and the new one.)


As far as parsing the HTML goes - I haven't started on any code yet (though a small portion of the code from the other two will be re-usable; the same portion that was also reusable between LemmingsWelt and IsaMedia), but I have taken a look at the HTML layout and the layout the website dumper I used puts the files, to determine what approach to use.

So far, I have identified how to crawl the topic lists and get the links to the topics' content themself, but haven't looked at how to crawl this last part yet (which will no doubt be the hardest part). I'll also have to take into account that HTML will need to be reverted to BBCode.

Qualifying levels are:

* Tricky 19 "Postcard from Lemmingland"
* Tricky 25 "Cascade"

Next round is up.

As you've almost certianly noticed, the old posts from both LemmingsWelt and IsaMedia have been added to this forum.

Yep. And if a need arises, they can be unlocked on a case-by-case basis.

I think having them on the boards is fine, especially that I have now successfully been able to move them to the bottom; ie: have posts in the correct order.

My attempts to create some SQL code to do this failed, but the keyword here is "SQL". I used some PHP instead, and this was much more successful.

As there's now no issue of new topics getting lost below old ones, I have re-enabled posting on the new forum.

At this point, it's really safe to post on whichever forum you like - if we do get the database from this one, I'll be able to come up with some workarounds to merge the two. If we don't, then nothing is lost and no work is created by posting on the new one.

(Also: All LemmingsWelt topics are locked, and the same will be true for the IsaMedia ones. But the ones from this forum won't be.)
