I like the examples from reply #13 more than the examples from reply #12.

I think the author line should be dark blue like the pack and position, to not stand out as much. It's as relevant as the pack and position.

Pack name is nice for livestreaming. People will see excerpts without stream metadata (stream title). Good to orient viewers.

Re long pack names: When you have to trim long pack and position because of long directory names, cut from the left. Or cut from the center. Don't cut from the right. People tend to be happy with the position.

Spacing is a concern for later. Now, if author is missing, there is gap. I don't mind the gap much.

Little time, the hunches are:

The shift in design will be away from {different modes for different tasks} toward error prevention/recovery. E.g., you value how blue R cannot accidentally cut global future. Error prevention may be via modes again, or via undo, or via something.

{LMB into air to cut global future} is accident-prone and obscure. But RMB fixes neither of these problems, and it clashes with many RMB habits where click is no-op: priority invert, scrolling, ...

More when I have time.

Actually, this does sound familiar now - I remember wanting something closer to the DOS versions of the tunes, so likely used them for that reason.

I'm fairly sure the tracks I used for LPII were just taken from Lemmix's source code. I definitely recall using DragonsLovers' tracks in other past projects though, so perhaps this was a mixup with one of those cases? I don't think DragonsLover was active anymore when I made LPII.

Thoughts on this?

Good shout. If we merge the replay modes, we can get rid of this option.

I look forward to your feedback!

Neither choosing "Save & Close" nor selecting a different key will actually save the selection you made

Thanks for letting me know. It was a simple case of unlinked event handlers. This is now fixed, so the items now update along with the numeric control as expected.

This showcase has been an invaluable source of feedback, so many thanks for that

Best of luck with your submission - keep us updated!

Confirmed.

The event handler for the control was unlinked (a symptom of having ported this code over from SuperLemmix). All controls have now been double-checked and updated as necessary.

I've also refactored the list handling a bit so that only the currently-being-edited item updates (rather than the entire list!), making the UI a bit snappier.

Fixed in NLCEPlayer commit ebc4405.

Quote from: darkshoxx on July 18, 2026, 09:44:49 PMah yes, if you want to assign a key to "Select Skill Button", you can select which number skill button to assign it to, but there's no way to then "confirm" that number.
Neither choosing "Save & Close" nor selecting a different key will actually save the selection you made, my workaround was to swap to a different effect on the same key and then going back to "Select Skill Button". That worked for me.
