Here we now have the new
Lemmings Heritage Expansion Pack! Included in this pack are all levels that I've made, as well as a brand new third rank,
Rugged, which is the final rank in this pack for now, this
might change later. 20 all new levels to solve! This increases the total level count to 60! The levels range from Medium to Hard on the new rank, well, depending on how you look at it. Some volunteer playtesters on my end were newly introduced to Lemmings and have said that some of the pack is really difficult. While a few experienced Lemmings players mentioned otherwise. Please do enjoy it either way!
As I've said once before, this pack is supposed to be very similar to the first Lemmings for DOS with many different styles from Lemmings, Oh No! More Lemmings, now featuring Holiday Lemmings, and finally, Lemmings 3/Chronicles. Some skills from L2 were added as well to make it more fun. My intentions for this pack is to make it fun for new and experienced players! Note, it's not supposed to be an entirely difficult level pack.
Notable changes/updates:- Lemmings 3 style level music has been replaced with the DOS versions to match the pack
- Most sound effects were changed to DOS/AdLib
- Some graphics alterations were made to other levels in the other two ranks, for example, Amiga blue backgrounds were added to some of the levels to match their particular styles with L2.
- There is now a Holiday/X-mas styled level! So I can now add that game to the list of games included in the style/tileset list.
Future updates planned:- Music loop fixes
- Fill in some levels with more graphics to make them look much more full
- Custom menu/rank graphics
- Adding traps and making slight alterations to some of the levels to increase difficulty
- MAYBE a fourth, much more difficult rank will be added.

Please remember, as I have mentioned before on my initial release post, that the difficulty of the levels range in no particular order. Basically, some levels ahead of harder ones may be a lot easier later on in the ranks.
Thank you again, kaywhyn for the help to achieve learning how to do more of this work!
Also, thanks to The Tomato Watcher for the DOS sound effect extractions. Finally, special thanks to my playtesters and idea helpers - non-members Kevin and Ritty for the help in the office to finish this up! (Yes, this was all developed in an actual office). And of course, namida, for the introduction to NeoLemmix and especially the amazing Lemmings Forums! I love it here.
P.S. I am always open for ideas for existing levels to help improve on this pack since there's something to build on now. And there are always ideas for tougher levels, even to existing ones!
