Unfortunately, backroutes are still out there. Even now, Gotta Go Fast isn't completely backroute-free. Sometimes it takes many versions to completely patch them out. It's sometimes a pain to fix backroutes sometimes when the level gets playtested in the NL Editor

All rightie, my Lemmings Forums and Discord break starts now! I have logged out of the Discord mobile app and will do the same with the desktop app after posting this. It will be tough, but I'm sure I can last. I will just need to find stuff to keep myself busy with and fight off the urge to check the Forums on either my laptop or phone. I will return once it's over

@Guigui, @Armani

Thanks for the support and the luck!      

@kaywhyn
Good luck! and enjoy your vacation

QuoteSo I set up a little program on my machine which kills every lemmings related applications at 1 a.m. It kind of works, and I do no longer count the number of times where I was so close to solve a level only to have NL get killed in my face 

 

20/9/26: Gotta Go Fast v2.00 is out.

A long awaited fix to Chilli Dog 5 "Whodunnit?" which has remained unfixed for nearly 5 years.

Congrats and good luck on your forum hiatus kaywhyn. This is not an easy thing to do when you're very used to visit here often, but you can do it.

Visiting the forum is not the biggest issue I encounter. To me it is rather playing the game up to very late at night.

All rightie, so this is an experiment of mine that I've been meaning to do for a really long time now but still haven't done so yet. This comes about from how this topic started in the first place and hence I was inspired to give it a try as a self-improvement thing. Basically, I'm very well aware how I've been checking the Forums way too often every day in the last 9 years or so and hence I really need to change my ways here.

So, I'm going to challenge myself here: Starting at midnight on Sunday, September 20, 2026 (9 hours from now for me) and for the next several days thereafter, I'm not going to check either the Forums or the Discord, whether on my laptop or on my phone.. I'm pretty much trying to put myself in the shoes of Clam Spammer and some of the other members who posted in the earliest pages of this thread, when they took their so-called "vacation" from Lemmings, to see how it feels. Don't worry though, I won't be gone too long, and it has nothing to do with what anyone has done that I felt the need to distance myself from this community

I will post again minutes before my hiatus starts, but yea, I just wanted to announce this experiment of mine that I want to try

happy very early holidays...


beacuse of this im giving you...
thats right!

4 early jolly X-tralems holiday bonus pack preview levels!

these are some early jolly sneak peeks of the pack!

The reason is because 256 is 2^8 which is a binary column transition number, and they just decided that 256 was a good number to set the limit at for NL

Quote from: mobius on September 18, 2026, 10:39:26 PMyo, thanks for uploading these as it files! How did you do that? Did you find them or convert them yourself?

I converted them myself using openMPT, following a tutorial online.
As far as I know, neolemmix doesn't allow for a BPM above 256, which some songs had. To remedy this, I had to reduce some of the tracks' tempo by half, then remove the spacing between each beat to compensate. The result is mostly the same as the original, although some instrumentation might sound just slightly different as some notes bleed into one another.

I think I did everything correctly? I'm not super well versed in using that software, or audio in general lol.

Just to expand on what Simon said, I am off on weekends anyway. Booked the Weekdays 22-26th Feb off so I am available all the days Simon says he is available above.

Going to be a good week!
