NeoLemmix Main / Re: [STYLES] Updates to second...
Last post by Proxima - December 31, 2025, 03:23:21 AMMy thoughts:
Strongly prefer the original bubble zapper; the rotating blades look cool, and unnecessary flashing is annoying.
New chameleon is good.
New weed is marginally better but neither is good. I'll have a go at making an alternative.
Same with the crystal trap, I think we can do better.
Agreed with Icho about the rock trap; I played through a level and the drip rate is not fast enough to be annoying, so no change was needed.

Last post by IchoTolot - December 30, 2025, 09:38:57 PMHere is my feedback! 
- The backgrounds I would say are all good alternatives!
For the secondary animations I would say that not all of them are straight upgrades:
- ohno_bubble zapper I would say makes the effect of the trap clearer! Here.
- ohno_rock chameleon Looks more natural and also gets a
- ohno_rock weed trap I would classify as a downgrade. The bobs look more unnatural in my opinion and the old one looks more appealing.
- orig_crystal electric trap I would say is now unclearer and would prefer the old one. The electric static on top of it fits better and shows what to expect. I have a suggestion though: Combine the two! First a shine and then the static to finish it off.
- orig_dirt rock trap Here I am for keeping the frequency high! This is one of the more hidden traps and more frequent drips reduce the chance that the trap gets overlooked.

Done!
NOTE: I've also updated the attachments in the suggestion post as one of the images was incorrect.

NeoLemmix Main / [STYLES] Updates to secondary ...
Last post by WillLem - December 30, 2025, 05:00:15 PMIn the style updates topic, I've suggested some updates to a handful of the trap animations from the OG styles. As requested by Icho, here is a list of the proposed updates with viewable comparisons:
ohno_bubble zapper trap has a pulsating electric 'glow' effect.
--> 
ohno_rock chameleon trap has less frequent blink and more natural eye movements.
--> 
ohno_rock weed trap looks like the original and bobs up and down.
--> 
orig_crystal electric trap has an electric 'shine' effect.
--> 
orig_dirt rock trap has fewer drips.
--> 
Plus, here are Proxima's backgrounds (also included in the proposed update as optional background tiles):

With every new smiley, two old smileys should be moved away, until the number in the main post form is under 30-40. Who needs 30 even.
My position is that I am strongly opposed to the removal of all smilies, and the strength of my opposition applies equally to all smilies.

Last post by IchoTolot - December 29, 2025, 11:09:29 PMQuote from: WillLem on December 29, 2025, 12:27:42 PMSince nobody has replied (but apparently 19 people (bots?) have downloaded the attachments), I recommend that we go ahead and update the styles as suggested. We can always revert if people object later.
To be honest: I've not known about this unil today as I was away the last week (Xmas stuff) and do not consider this topic as a high prio read as in here are mostly updates to custom sets.
@Will: Could you maybe make a dedicated topic with a comparison of the changed animations and the added optional backgrounds?
That way it is way easier for everyone to quickly see the changes without having to switch tileset versions and test it all manually. I highly suspect very few have the patience to test everything manually for some secondary animations - me included - and is therefore simply silent and stays with the old ones.
