In the old version, if a pack did not have a custom-made graphic sign, the default graphic sign would be "Step 1" "Step 2" and so on forth.

However, in the new version, it says "Rank Graphic not found". This is a major issue because one will wonder what rank they currently are at, especially if the pack has so many ranks (e.g. the Lemmix-to-NeoLemmix conversion packs).

I am unsure what the best solution is, assuming that a pack can now have more than 15 ranks. Maybe just put something as simple as "Rank 1" "Rank 2" etc. as the rank graphics.

Have level designer's block right now? Have some of my incomplete levels for LOTS of ideas!

The best solution there would probably be to define them as seperate packs in the first place. (For the record, NeoLemmix has no problem with packs-inside-packs, or for that matter, ranks-inside-ranks.)

And indeed, packs no longer have a 15-rank limitation, nor a 255-levels-per-rank limitation.
My projects
2D Lemmings: NeoLemmix (engine) | Lemmings Plus Series (level packs) | Doomsday Lemmings (level pack)
3D Lemmings: Loap (engine) | L3DEdit (level / graphics editor) | L3DUtils (replay / etc utility) | Lemmings Plus 3D (level pack)
Non-Lemmings: Commander Keen: Galaxy Reimagined (a Commander Keen fangame)

This is now fixed for the first 15 ranks and most packs won't have more. So I consider this topic fixed for the moment.
