CustLemm Level List Game

[Timballisto]

Well, for a lot of things I use something similar to the finger trick, only for really long miner tunnels I have a piece of paper that I folded so that one edge can go along a miner tunnel and show me where it goes.  I use it by putting it on the screen so the sides line up on the edges of the monitor, and then, poof!  Miner path shown.  My method with bombers?  Usually just really good guesses.  Either that or I use landmarks.  If you were really into lemmings accuracy then you couls tell the number of pixels the lemmings moves per second horix, and then vertical, and then come up with a formula for finding the exact position to bomb.  The only problem, I suppose, is the fact that you can't really tell what pixel a lemming is on even if you know the exact pixel you need to set the bomber on.  Does anyone know the solution to that one?

[Shvegait]

Hmm.... since I can't play the level I don't know, but wouldn't the "Time to get up" solution work? Or would there not be enough builders?

Yep, you have enough builders, and even a couple left over if you're not wasteful.

I completed "Time to get up" without using the solution.

You call that precision bombing?!?  ::

When I think of precision bombing, I generally think of something where if you're off by one pixel you're screwed.  Bomboozal and Diet Lemmingaid are not precision bombings.

I didn't say that those particular levels were precision bombings, just that they have absolutely no puzzle. Pixel precision bombings are like you said, one pixel off...and OOPS! (The ones that are hard to guess are particularly bad, like havoc 10.)

I completed "Time to get up" without using the solution.

I'm guessing you meant that you didn't do it the lemmings solution way. It sort of sounds like you completed the level without completing it. O_o

[JM]

I am proud of completing "Time to get up" without using the solution  

I'll look at Level 8



Timb03 - Level 8:Kauf, Kauft, Kaufen Sie...

Lemmings: 80
Save: 80
RR: 50
Time: 5 minutes

skills: 99 climbers, 99 floaters, 99 bombers, 99 blockers, 99 builders, 1 bashers, 1 miner,
99 diggers

Good: Hard puzzle to solve,also good level title and good scenery

Bad: 99 Climbers,floaters and bombers? There's no more than 80 Lemmings on the level.

I'm not sure whether you mean without looking at the solution page or without using the particular solution shown on the page; but in either case, I didn't either

[JM]

I didn't look at the solution page to complete the level. I completed it before I found out about Lemmings on the internet.

[Shvegait]

Good job, JM, although I think most people here didn't use the solution either

OK. So whose pack shall we review next? (Timballisto's packs have 8 levels in them.)

[JM]

Shvegait would you want 1 of your packs reviewing?

[guest]

Shvegait's levels are great! That would be fine with me.

[JM]

Shveg01.dat would be a good pack to review wouldn't it? I agree that Shvegait's levels are great. I'm just waiting for permission off him to review them.

[Shvegait]

Sure, it would be good to have shveg01.dat reviewed

If someone doesn't have the pack, you can find it here:

[JM]

I'll comment on the first level



Shveg01 - Level 1:Just Dig?

Lemmings: 50
To be saved: 50
RR: 50
Time: 2 minutes
Skills: 2 climbers,2 floaters,4 builders,2 bashers,1 digger

Good: Not too hard since its the first level of the pack,good level design too

Bad: Can't find anything bad about this level

[Proxima]

I didn't look at the solution page to complete the level. I completed it before I found out about Lemmings on the internet.

Fine.

I beat all 220 levels of both games without looking at a solution page, so there!
