Granted, you find a big DDR arcade cabinet in working order for cheap ! Though it has that weird UK electrical plug and you cannot use it in Kuwait :/

I wish I was a better badminton player to at least score decent points against my local friends.

Quote from: WillLem on March 26, 2026, 09:46:18 PMAh OK, cool. Well, I've been thinking that maybe the RetroLemmini version of ROTL could be split into 3 packs. There are currently 270 levels across 10 ratings, which just seems excessive tbh. We could easily split this into 2 packs of 120 each (ROTL I and II, each with 4 ratings of 30 levels), and then have 30 levels left over to start Lemmings Assemble (which would essentially then be "ROTL III"). We'd then have a ROTL trilogy, which seems a much better way to maintain these packs going forward.

I don't want to dampen your enthusiasm (and I'm really looking forward to making some levels for this once it gets going), but there are a few things I want to say.

RotL is a great community achievement and a fun, high-quality pack in its current state, no doubt about that. But it has remained unfinished for over 12 years because the work involved in maintaining it has been more than any one person was able and willing to take on. (I'm guilty there as well, as I offered to work on a new NL version after mobius retired from the position. I still haven't even finished solving all the levels!)

So the first question is: are you offering to take over as pack maintainer for RotL in addition to putting together and maintaining the new pack? (There is, of course, no reason why these have to be the same person.)

If so, how do you see the role? Since you talk about splitting RotL into two packs as well as creating a new collaboration, do you intend to come up with the selection and ordering yourself or through community discussion? Should new versions be made for RetroLemmini, SuperLemmini and NL so that it's playable in the new selection/ordering on all engines, or is that not important? What will you do when level solutions are impacted by game mechanics differences between the engines?

I must point out that, while RotL started on Lemmini, it's now over 10 years since it migrated to NL and has been primarily a NL pack, with other versions not so much maintained as just existing for historical reasons. It sounds like you want to move it back to (now Retro)Lemmini primarily; is that the case? If so, can you explain why you believe that should be done?

I'm really glad the pack has had a resurgence of interest, and I think this is a great time for us to put our heads together and decide on the direction it should take going forwards. I know I don't have a good track record here, but I am still happy to help with producing the next version in any way I can.

I want to learn it is what I had in mind.

Ah OK, cool. Well, I've been thinking that maybe the RetroLemmini version of ROTL could be split into 3 packs. There are currently 270 levels across 10 ratings, which just seems excessive tbh.

If your intention is to maintain the SuperLemmini version only, then of course you don't need to do anything regarding the proposed RetroLemmini version. But, it might be good to have your involvement with this as well.

Awesome! Well, feel free to keep creating levels and we'll definitely include some for sure.

Quote from: Mobiethian on March 26, 2026, 03:07:55 PMI would like to make some levels for this, too! Would be fun. I'm getting better at making more difficult levels. Count me in!

The more the merrier!

This goes for everyone: if you mainly create for NL but want to get involved with this project, that's fine. The SLX Editor can easily convert your levels to .rlv format for use in RetroLemmini, so you don't have to do anything differently than normal. Just create some levels in whatever Editor is best for you and we'll take it from there.

What? The Pepsi machines all broke the day they were installed? 

I wish that I could find more Dance Dance Revolution related things in my country, I only found the PS1 versions of 2ndMix and 3rdMix, no other games or controllers.

Interesting idea. I'll consider contributing some levels, though I likely won't contribute much, especially as have my Lemmings Memories pack currently in-development

Quote from: WillLem on March 25, 2026, 02:07:34 PMI had an idea today whilst playing through Revenge of the Lemmings and just wanted to make a note of it here.

Speaking of RotL, I'm currently sorting out and tidying up eric's SuperLemmini conversion of the pack. In particular, there were a lot of duplicate music tracks and hence were removed in order to reduce the file size of the music pack. Also, as I was going through the levels to make sure I had the correct music playing on them to match with RotL v2.0 for Very Old Formats NL, I found some incorrect level stats. Will probably post an updated version soon in the Lemmini Level Packs Archive topic

For RetroLemmini, not NL

Following my series of playing old small packs, I cleared the Lemmings Migration pack by Nessy.

Wow what an amazing pack, especially for a first one if I understand correctly.

All levels are enjoyable, difficulty is very progressive and the Migraine levels are indeed very hard as advertised.
I had many amazing moments when the solutions to them finally came to me.

I think I may have some unintended solutions here and there, for instance :

Spoiler

Migraine 5 We're Coming Home : I have a climber left, did not find what to do with it. Setting up the digger stairs and freeing the crowd at the end in time with the suicidal basher was very hard. So I think I'm missing something with this extra climber

Many thanks to Nessy for the pack, hope we'll see you sometime around on the forum. When my fear of large pack is gone, I'll certainly try Destination.

I'm making some progress in the pack.

Currently at level 18 Reaper Work. The level looks doable at first sight, until you realize that you will definitely need the zombie ! It is also a builderless level, so I guess kaywhyn would like it if he tries it.

I could not clear 11 Trouble In The Art Gallery : no idea how to isolate a worker yet.
I could not clear 12 Lock Down for the same reason. Maybe yet another trick with builder and stacker that I dont know ?

Level 8 Cunning Plan I thought was brilliant.

Spoiler

I used the single miner to destroy terrain both under and above him.

Level 14 Escape Chute, I'm not sure I have intended solution because I have many skills left.

Spoiler

I used a basher canceled with a blocker in the central triangle.

Level 15 Super Lemming Adventure was super fun to solve with this Super Lemming ! I did not have courage to start again for the talismans though, sorry.

Level 17 Everyone's A Harder Nut was very nice too.

Spoiler

Typical exemple of taking the long way with the pioneer to save the "crowd"

Levels 6, 7, 9, 10, 16 all require very precise skill assignment. Solution is not very hard to guess but damn is it hard to set up correctly ! Especially in 7 and 16. Also special mention to the hidden cameleon somewhere ! You think the level is clear, but it is not ... at all 

I would like to make some levels for this, too! Would be fun. I'm getting better at making more difficult levels. Count me in!

I've attached an updated version of namida's .nxp (download link found on the previous page, 7) of the pack for v1.43 NL with the following changes:

- Corrected the Frenzy 9 - Fall Guy talisman to unlock the correct secret level. It was unlocking the wrong one.

- Moved the eraser piece on Pain 22 - Herculems down a pixel. The level was unsolvable otherwise with what seems to have been changed bomber mechanics. Interestingly enough, this level is fine in mobius' Flexible NeoLemmix Player version (in the OP) and hence doesn't need the eraser piece moved for that one.

Remember that you would need the 1.43n-F NL player to load this .nxp file. You can download this NL player here:

https://www.neolemmix.com/?page=download_list&program=16

Simply extract both the NL player and the .nxp file somewhere to your hard drive, double-click the NL player, and browse to the location where you extracted the .nxp file, and double click the .nxp file to load the pack.

The NL player v1.43n-F file is also attached here. I've also attached both the .nxp and the NL player v1.43n-F files in the OP for convenience and so that both versions of the pack and everything are in one place
