Little update:

- The zip now has the standard levels/Pack structure inside so that you can simply unzip it in the main NL folder.

- 2 updates regarding 2 of Turrican's levels: "Outside the Control Room" and "Dockside warehouse"

For mantha's feedback:

Quotelevel 7 im already stuck so Im not sure if the rank difficulties will match what I think easy should be.

8 is a really good puzzle but def not easy imho

The pack will 100% not match the definition of "easy" for most people. It is nearly impossible to hit that.

But, as you can see rank 1 has not that many entries yet and I admit that the majority of the entries hit what I would call the "second half" of the first rank where the levels have gotten a bit more difficult already.

Therefore I look forward to more rank 1 entries for the "first half" where things should be quite simple for the vast majority of players! ;)

The fact that in the same hour after the stuck post you posted that you figured it out would confirm to me that around "midpoint" to "second half" of the first rank would be an acceptableplacement for example. At least roughly and of course difficulty arrangements are also totally up to debate. I think we should first fill in the rank a bit more though.

Also, for the very first few levels in rank 1, I plan to take the visual aspect heavily into account as the first few levels should be looking quite nicely.

Quotealso unless I missed a trick which is entirely possible its everything Ive seen people criticise other levels  for in terms of a buildery fest which is fine if its the only one which it could well be

I personally would be willing to have some selected builder-heavy levels in the first rank as it can be a good training. But definitly not many! Also the ones we have should be at least somewhat interesting and visually pleasing.

This can be up to debate though!

It was suggested to have more ranks overall.

I would be for that and currently a split up could be done in the middle section of the pack as we have quite a few entries already in that region.

A split would be most beneficial in the easy part of the pack between rank 1 and 2 to have more easy levels that nearly everybody can solve. For that more easy entries are required first though.

So with more entries I could soon increase the rank ammount to 6, 7, or even 8. But first: Send me more stuff! Especially quality content for rank 1!

I've skipped about a bit through this (mainly due to lack of familiarity with some of the newer skills) as I've been playing but have been enjoying the levels I have attempted/solved so far :thumbsup: & I will certainly be trying to get a solution for them all eventually. I might see if I can put something relatively easy together for an earlier ranked level over the weekend.

Here's a level that should be suitable for early 1st rank. :)
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)

Proxima

#50
And here's another rank 1-ish contribution 8-)

If you post solution replays:

It may be a good idea to save the replays by "level name" and not by "rank + position" as it will change frequently!

@Proxima @Mantha16

Backroutes? ???

Proxima's feels intended tbf, it's quite funny :lemcat:

mantha16

grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

WillLem

Feel free to use these for the first rank :lemcat:

Walk The Plank can be made a tad easier by making it 3 or 4 of each instead of 2 of each, but 2 is still very doable. The solution included here is just one of a few possible alternatives.

Armani

Nice and easy levels :thumbsup: These levels well fit for 1st rank.
I'm afraid I backrouted Mantha16's level(snow way to talk) and WillLem's level(Walk The Plank) though.
I think they are somewhat open-ended levels but these solutions are way too simple. :P
