When I play any pack it seems the scroller text isn't working despite having the info file in the right place (at least according to NepsterLems which is what I go by). And the file seems to be correct; but I attached it for study anyway. NepsterLems' marquee also behaves in this way.

The marquee just displays "NeoLemmix blah blah" then "levels". Have you experienced this?

Yes, I can reproduce this bug. Will look into it in the near future.

IchoTolot

Just to bump this.

Simon, Forestidia and myelf noticed this as well in the newest version.

Scroller text and the text above the player version is simply "levels", instead of the predefined text. Not critical, but ugly.

I'm not sure if I ever got around to properly implementing this in new-formats before NeoLemmix was handed over to Nepster, so could be my fault here.
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)

No need to remind me. I was still remembering this issue. :) However I consider it rather low-priority, so haven't looked into it at all.

Hmm, I encourage such occasional bumps of older bugs. It's the clearest way to raise their priority.

This issue is not a blocker by any means, it's pure cosmetics, but it hits immediately on the pack's title page. Pack designers rub against this issue more than against many others.

Oh, then please be a bit more specific next time. I didn't read "just to bump this" as "I would like this to be fixed soon". :-[

Actually, both ;P

I wasn't sure if it still was on your fix-list and I also thought it was a thorn in the eye that always greets players at the title screen.

I will be more specific next time as well. ;)

I finally fixed this, 8 months after it was first reported and another 3 months after IchoTolot bumped it. It just took every free minute I had during this weekend. ;P
