It downloads fine, I just can't get it to load, .lvl after it or not. I renamed it "grouplevel" and LemEdit won't recognize "grouplevel" or "grouplevel.lvl". Odd.

Yeah Steve, good luck with the teeth!

 The file doesn't need the lvl extension to open it in LemEdit. You can rename it to anything, type the filename into LemEdit and it will load.

 edit: Try renaming it to something shorter, like a single character.

That's exactly what I did.  Maybe it has to do with the whole eight characters thing?

Yeah DOS is strange with how it handles filenames.

It seems to me that, atleast with this particular level, there will be no need for a second loop. &#A0;So far, anyhow. &#A0;I suppose that could change.

Ha ha, I guess depends on how Steve's wisdom teeth operation comes out.....  ;P

(Though I have full confidence that he'll have no trouble churning out something good even when under great pain.)

Yeah, remember LemEdit is a DOS program so it can only handle 8 character filenames, in spite of Win95+.

I thought the same thing.  Yes, whatever he comes up with, I'm pretty sure it'll be something good!

yeah sorry...I wanted to name it something shorter...but I thought I'll go with the naming convention that everyone else was using...it just needs to be renamed to something with 8 characters

Oh and sorry Conway I hope you dont mind me blacking out some of your terrain, I just thought the level could do with a little neatening

I didn't notice any terrain gone either...then again I only looked for the invisible pieces for about 30 seconds so chances are that I missed something.

I downloaded the level and it seems to be looking good.

TW, what I'm more concerned about is that the only change you've made to the solution is covering the water by the door. The only other changes seem to be small and aesthetic. That's cool as well, I guess . . .

The tooth extraction went very well, although I've been bleeding from the mouth for about the last 7 hours. Doesn't hurt as much as I've been told it would.

So, the rules are: No more than 10 terrain pieces, no more than 4 new interactive things, and no more than 3 new steel areas, correct? Also, after making my addition, I should figure out how many lemmings are required to pass the level.

I'll try to figure out some clever addition I can make that doesn't completely mess up the solution to the level. Not sure when it'll be complete, but... it appears my surgery today had no complications and I'll be fine.
