I've noticed a wierd thing happening with autosaved replays. They sometimes save without the .nxrp file format, which has to be added manually to the filename. Thus:



This can happen at any time, with any pack.

Here's Hunt The Nessy in 3:58.94. Building over Nessy appears to be the fastest solution. This was optimised down from 4:07.XX, which involved bashing through Nessy instead.

This was played in the new L1 conversion.

Played Willem's levels
I already played Lemminas before.
The only thing I cared about this time, is minimizing the time taken.

Thank Armani, I have updated the records table with your new times

Any% Fun Speedrun in 14:45
Any% Tricky Speedrun in 23:22
Any% Taxing Speedrun in 28:29
Any% Mayhem Speedrun in 37:16

If you'd prefer to have the Acorn music for Oh No! More Lemmings (26 tracks), here it is!

Instructions for setup:

1 Unzip the folder
2 Navigate to your SuperLemmini directory
3 Place the "Acorn ONML" folder into the "music" folder
4 Place the "levelpack.ini" file into "DMA Oh No! More Lemmings (Remastered) V1.01" in the "levels" folder

Let me know if you need any help with this.

Enjoy

Also, what about pickup skills?

I'd like to enter

My nominations are:

Author	Pack	Rank	#	Level
Geoffster	GeoffLems	Mayhem	4	The Long Beam
namida	Lemmings Plus III	Rough	15	Lem Particle
Nepster	NepsterLems	MOON	1	The Game Of 1000 Balls
WillLem	Lemminas	Pandemonium	15	Nothing Is Impossible

Lush!

Regarding Lemminas, I think it would be cool to do a 'lemminas-only' version of this contest at some point, if that helps with decision-making at all...

I hasten to add that I'm suggesting that not because it's my pack, but because I genuinely think it would be quite neat

With that said, I ultimately voted for "No restrictions" because I also think that a mixture of levels from lots of different custom packs (including Lemminas, of course!) would be best overall.

Sorry that I've worded it like I'm disregarding your challenge just because it's on a different engine. I will get onto it at some point.

No worries, thanks for elaborating on what you meant

The absence of glitches which previously made sub-1 minute solutions possible on other platforms is exactly the reason this challenge is interesting in NeoLemmix; it now comes down to using the skills and the maps to make it possible.

Anyways, I look forward to running this challenge with you at some point!

The last one does not load properly due to the background not being found in the styles (proxima_tile)

Thanks for the heads up, I've now re-uploaded the level.

I liked your solution to THE GIANT MARBLE EXIT; a nice 100%-er. Everyone solves that one slightly differently, which is exactly what I like to see

Finally, the plank level has an extremely obvious backroute that you missed completely Two bashes and done!

How do you know I missed it, and it's not intended?

Spoiler

Yeah... I did miss it

Big congratulations to everyone who made the 900 club, Pooty for winning, and Mantha for beating namida

Since Silken and I are bringing up the rear here, I'm compelled to re-arrange the results so that they're in order of lems-per-skill; in this context, I've actually done quite well!

1 - Pooty - 5.32 lems per skill (1010 lemmings saved/190 skills used)
2 - WillLem - 4.94 lems per skill (865 lemmings saved/175 skills used)
3 - Gronkling - 4.92 lems per skill (965 lemmings saved/196 skills used)
4 - namida - 4.83 lems per skill (869 lemmings saved/180 skills used)
5 - mantha16 - 4.77 lems per skill (892 lemmings saved/187 skills used)
6 - Proxima - 4.73 lems per skill (946 lemmings saved/200 skills used)
7 - Minim - 4.72 lems per skill (935 lemmings saved/198 skills used)
8 - Silken Healer - 323 lemmings saved (71 skills used / 4.55 lems per skill)

Theeere we go, that's better

Pooty is still the winner in terms of lems-per-skill, which is incredible. Silken, of course, wins in terms of fewest skills used, and Proxima wins in terms of having managed to make use of every skill! So, everyone's happy

Get it closed - we want to see the results!!!

It looks like you're working with Amiga Lemmings for this challenge, rather than the highly accessible Redux.

Not so much: Amiga Lemmings is now defunct in lieu of the upcoming "NL official" conversions; I see no reason to maintain 2 packs of the same levels when it's much better to collaborate with Proxima and make the most ideal version we can

Redux can of course be done for this challenge as well! As has become the recent tradition for NL challenges, it's probably worth starting with Redux anyway.

Does this mean we can add non-original skills (Like Walker, Jumper etc)

Yes, and in fact skills can be removed from the original set to make room for others not in that set (if necessary). I'll try to make this as clear as possible in the OP.

Also, with NeoLemmix taking out all the glitches, this challenge is in my opinion less interesting than the DOS equivalent.

I'm not sure why you've even said this, to be frank. This is a NeoLemmix challenge; it's interesting because it's being played within the perameters of NeoLemmix as a platform. It is not without its own little quirks and features which make it great for challenges.

Quote from: Proxima on March 07, 2021, 11:31:31 AM
My suggestion for this challenge would be: find the fewest additional skills to make a level solvable in under a minute. For instance, if a level provides 25 climbers and 25 builders and nothing else, and you have a solution with 8 builders and 1 basher that solves in under a minute, the result is "1" (the 1 basher is extra).

Agreed, but the {full skillset used} should still be reported.

Results could be presented in table format

Absolutely, I'll make a table for this soonish

For those that prefer a vertically-oriented table:
