NeoLemmix Levels / Re: Lemmings in Weirdyland (20...

I could finally clear this pack, almost including Vexing 10 Evacuation Procedure.

I say "almost" because I wanted to see an advice here, and decided to watch the beginning of kaywhyn's replay up to a skill assignment I never tried until now. I acknowledge I sometimes do that to give me a new idea I have not tried yet.
Problem is that for Vexing 10, 4 skills are assigned very closely at the beginning (that reminds me of something btw...), so I just paused after  those 4 skills, and got the solution for sure. It is a hard level, and this solutions ends with an extra builder, so not sure this is the intended one ?

Overall the pack was indeed very good with lots of moderate difficulty levels, the kind I like to make my brain work, but not to the point of overheat !

I could solve Icho's No Way In Hell for rule 1, took me a looong time to see the basher extension !

Now I've been losing my hair for quite a while on his Social Distancing for rule 2. Tried different things with all those Lem control skills, but did not get an inch closer to the solution I fear. I dont feel like watching a replay coz that would spoil the fun.

The only way I can see to any exit is to have one lemming go the middle level where the exits are then build a bridge over the gap. Once that is done I guess exits can be reached via either the upper level by simply falling, or by the downer level by shimmier hanging under the bridge, which would look very nice !
Though I have no idea how to send a lem to the middle level in the first place.

Can you give advice : am I on the correct track here by wanting to send a lem to the middle level, or is the solution completely different ?

Similar to what I did for Geoff Lems, it was also a long time coming and I did a video series on this wonderful pack as well! :thumbsup:

It's also been a really long time since I last saw the levels in this pack. It was also amazing seeing the Cheapo equivalents of the L1 tilesets after so long! :thumbsup: I installed Cheapo on my machine earlier this year, though I haven't played it too much at the time. I may come back to it at some point and maybe go through the pack on Cheapo and see the differences in the gameplay mechanics between Cheapo and NL.

Thanks again to Essman for the pack, as well as namida for porting the pack over to NL! :thumbsup: To Essman, hope you're doing well :)

It's been a really long time since I last saw the levels of the pack, so it was a great trip down memory lane :) Nice job to Geoffster for these levels/pack and thank you again to namida for converting it to modern NL! :thumbsup:

Tech & Research / Dithering patterns in Lemmings
Last post by Baldem1990 - December 20, 2025, 02:36:35 AM
Dithering is used to reduce noise in the levels, such as crystals, and composite video blending in the PlayStation port of Lemmings. With the composite monitor simulator filter in RetroArch, the dithering patherns blend together; the checkerboard patterns in the crystal tileset in the PlayStation version of Lemmings does not count, so I decided to boost it.

This is a level for superlemmix, it's once elite name forever slandered with this catastrophic horrible mistake, as this grave error was born out of pure boredom, for the lack of enrichment has born this organism into the world, with it's horrible whimsical skin clearly showing the malice it contains. the title of the file is a warning. heed thy warning.

Community Edition / Re: Roadmap for CE 1.1
Last post by WillLem - December 19, 2025, 10:42:56 PM
Updated the OP.

Playback Mode has now been added to NLCE! It's now possible to play back an entire folder of replays in a variety of orders (by level, by appearance in folder, or randomly). Preview and Postview screens can also be auto-skipped (or not). Great for viewing replays of your pack, or for making videos, etc. New actions (skill assignments, etc) can also be added to a replay during Playback Mode without cancelling out of the mode (which must be done either by pressing the dedicated hotkey or clicking the "R" icon in the skill panel).

The feature includes the addition of new cursors for Replay, Replay Insert, and Playback Mode, to help the user keep track of which mode is active:

Replay - Cursor is red to match the red "R" icon
Insert - Cursor is blue to match the blue "R" icon
Playback - Cursor is purple, and "R" icon is hue-shifted to purple

If these cursors are not present in the directory (for example, if the user is running CE from a NL directory), cursor will fallback to default green for all modes.

Note also that the "R" icon is now clickable (to cancel Replay/Playback Mode) and animated (blinks on and off every 500ms).

Question: should we make this animation optional?

The next RC will hopefully be ready in a few days!

That's kind of you JawaJuice.  I might still try to fix Lemming Ledger as a standalone level, but I admit I've lost faith in it, and Reverse the Polarity I'm kind of leaving to die.

@Guigui Just to say, you can still play Crane's Lemming Ledger over on the Levels By Crane topic. I believe he's currently working on a new version though, following my latest backroute :) Unfortunately, I have backrouted this level to hell and back, it would seem :P Maybe you'll have more luck getting the intended solution :thumbsup:
