I'm back again! So, I have gained information when I played Tandy 1000 Oh-no! More Lemmings game and they're composed into different music notes and to 8-bit, and also noticed the soundtrack "Wacky" have off-track notes when replayed after the soundtrack is done. There are few ports, such as the Atari ST port of Oh-no! More Lemmings (which is converted from Texas Instruments SN76489 music to General Instrument AY-3-8910 music, and the soundtrack "Wacky" also has off-track note problems), the Macintosh II version of Oh-no! More Lemmings (soundtrack converted from IBM PC version to Macintosh II, so they sound similar), and the Acorn Archimedes version of Oh-no! More Lemmings (which has more than 26 soundtracks than any version of Lemmings). One day, if I'm an level creator expert, then I'm going to make a Homestar Runner level pack and Homestar Runner style. See you later again... 

  It's me again! So, I have been listening to other music from other Lemmings ports (such as Lemmings and Oh no! More Lemmings for Windows 95 and PlayStation (which the .mids from the game are ripped and converted to .ogg using Windows soundfont, and PlayStation CD-ROM ripped using a digital .cue ripper or physical disc drive and physical CD-ROM to rip from CDBurnerXP)), the CD-ROM of Lemmings for IBM PC (the soundtrack is similar to the Windows 95 and PlayStation versions, and also CD-i and 3DO versions of Lemmings, but the 3DO version has music errors in it), deliberately poor music from Nintendo Game Boy Color "Lemmings & OH NO! MORE LEMMINGS" (also known in Japan titled as "Lemmings VS." which is made in Japan months before Psygnosis was merged to Sony Computer Entertainment), the 8-bit music from Atari Lynx Lemmings (including the Menace soundtrack, which is exclusive to the credits of this version, but excluded when ripped), the FM music from NEC PC-9800 and Sharp X68000 versions of Lemmings (some soundtracks have faster tempo), the TurboGrafx-16 CD-ROM² version of Lemmings (which is similar to the soundtrack of Sega Genesis Lemmings), the rare soundtrack from SAM Coupé Lemmings & Oh No! More Lemmings (for example, an 8-bit remix of "Smile if You Love Lemmings"), the Amstrad CPC version of Lemmings (the soundtracks Menace and Shadow of the Beast II were composed to this version, but excluded when ripped), the Nintendo Entertainment System and Nintendo Game Boy version of Lemmings, the Atari ST port of Lemmings (the game's soundtrack resembles General Instrument AY-3-8910's square wave similarity to Texas Instruments SN76489 music and its choppy static percussion), and the Tandy 1000 port of Lemmings (IBM PC music conversion to chiptune music). In the future, I may rework the Lemmings .mids to be used in NeoLemmix. It may take a long time to rip these soundtracks to be placed in NeoLemmix.    I'm running out of text, but also see the Oh No! More Lemmings other port music. See you later! 

While CleanTalk is definitely helping, it's not perfect, and a few have slipped through. To help combat this, I've reintroduced the security question on registrations in addition to CleanTalk's checks. It should only have to be answered when registering; not when posting or sending PMs, even for new users.

It's not a "secret password" question, just general Lemmings trivia. I also added a few questions; SMF will randomly pick one to ask.

They are - but they can also make the intended solution easier to spot. Likewise for pickup skills, and even to some extent one way arrows.

I don't think so.

Quote from: GuyPerfect on May 05, 2012, 06:35:07 PMThe .LVL files are going to be the most complex, so I'll be starting another thread for those to work out the details. This thread should be reserved for merely documenting the format once it's figured out.

I could not find a corresponding thread. Was this ever done? The folder containing the .lvl files is named "COMPILED". That means one might not be able to reconstruct the original files?

I just finished (as in reached the credits, although there is still plenty more to do in the game) Hollow Knight: Silksong, the sequel to Hollow Knight, which is just about the only modern game that I love as much as I love the classics    Both games are Metroidvanias with vast worlds to explore, and I love the feeling of exploration and discovery, not knowing what's around each new corner, and gradually piecing things together and building connections. Both games also have a ton of colourful characters and fascinating, well-developed worlds, presented in a very cryptic way so that as you explore, you gradually come to understand them.

However, I discovered Hollow Knight through a Let's Play, which I'm grateful for as I might have missed it altogether, but that did mean that I never had the experience of playing it completely blind for myself. So Silksong has been an amazing opportunity to immerse myself in that experience. I have recorded my playthrough (96 episodes so far!) but haven't started uploading it yet as that would take huge chunks of time away from playing. At this point I'll probably just keep going, either until I 100% the game or until I decide I've reached a point where it makes sense to stop recording and play the rest by myself, and only start uploading then 

Namida is also playing this game at the moment.

Been playing through the Sly Cooper Series since acquiring the Vita Collection and going through my backlog to continue it. I'm playing through Sly 2 and im at the halfway point

I'm currently playing Portal 1 and 2 games, for maybe the 3rd time each since they came out.

The simplicity of the concept, and the tremendous puzzle it is able to create still amazes me each run I make. Plus the humour around those corridors is really good. Definitely give it a try if you love puzzle games, and do not get misdirected by the firts person view : those are real puzzle games.

Quote from: namida on September 14, 2025, 11:11:45 PMI didn't play through it, but looking at the description and screenshots: I'd actually say "every level revolves around a locked exit" is the more "gimmicky" thing here than the one lemming. However, I'll also stress that in this case, I don't mean "gimmicky" in a bad way - it's a perfectly valid, fair and (in and of itself) non-frustrating style of level design, the only thing "unusual" is it showing up in every level of the pack.

Yeah, that makes sense. I really like using buttons/locked exits in my levels because they're really good at enforcing specific solutions and preventing backroutes. I think they might be my favourite design element so I tend to overuse them

To be honest, having only locked exits wasn't a hard-and-fast rule for me when designing each level (there's a level in the pack which doesn't have a locked exit). Either way, having locked exits does make sense in this pack for thematic reasons.
