Oh No! More Challenges!

[Clam]

Geez, what's it take to get an answer around here? Anyway, if we are about to move again, as K suggests, then I guess I'd better post these now. So here they are...


TAME CHALLENGES

1 - 100%, 2 builders, 1 digger.
2 - 98%, 5 miners.
3 - 98%, 5 miners.
4 - 100%, 2 diggers.
5 - 100%, 1 basher, no miners or diggers. *
6 - 100%, miners only.
7 - 100%, 2 climbers, 1 blocker, 1 basher, 1 miner, 1 digger.
8 - 100%, 20 climbers, 2 builders, 1 minute.
9 - 100%, bashers only.
10 - 100%, 1 climber, 3 miners.
11 - 96%, 1 blocker, 3 builders, 2 diggers, 1 minute.
12 - 100%, 4 builders, 1 miner, 1 minute.
13 - 100%, 3 builders, 1 minute. *
14 - 100%, 8 builders.
15 - 94%, 3 blockers, 1 basher, 1 digger.
16 - 100%, 1 builder and 1 miner.
17 - 98%, no bashers, miners or diggers. *
18 - 100%, 1 basher, no miners or diggers. *
19 - 100%, 1 of each skill.
20 - SPEED RUN: Save everyone in under 31 seconds, i.e. 100% in with 3.30 left on the clock. If you're playing in DOSBox (who still uses that, anyway? ) take 2 seconds off that for pausing at the start.

* For these levels you can use the other skills as necessary - the ones listed are just restrictions.

If you're at all interested, then it might be a good idea to copy these to your computer in case this place disappears again

Not as Complicated as It Looks with only bashers and diggers?  Wouldn't all the lemmings fall to their death?  I don't get how that would work.

[Clam]

Has anyone had a go at the Tame challenges yet? I have now put these into two Custlemm level packs to make it just a little more convenient. These packs are for Custlemm and not ONML mode in Lemmix (as far as I can tell, the different max-fall distance shouldn't matter).

CSTame1 (1-10)
CSTame2 (11-20)

Remember the time limit for level 20 is 31 seconds, not 1 minute!

[Dullstar]

Okay, I'll try the Tame challenges.

[Clam]

No point in keeping these to myself any more. Here's the rest of the challenges I've invented, plus my Xmas Lemmings records. I've had a look through the old thread, so hopefully none of these are repeats.


BUILDER ONLY CHALLENGES (100% unless stated otherwise)

Fun 9/Tricky 26
Fun 10
Fun 16/Taxing 3 (Taxing 3 has more builders but less time. It is possible to do both with one solution)
Fun 20
Fun 27
Taxing 15
Mayhem 18
Wild 3 - Just get enough to pass the level (65/80 or 81%)
Wicked 13
Wicked 17
Wicked 18 (If you want to go for economy, try to do this with only 12 builders)
Frost 9
Blitz 10


NO BUILDER CHALLENGES (100% unless stated otherwise)

Fun 26
Fun 29 (VERY hard. Seriously, this is nuts. Stay away from this one unless you really know what you're doing.)
Crazy 9
Flurry 9
Flurry 12
Blitz 15 - 10/15 (66%)
Frost 3
Hail 4 - 79/80 (98%)
Hail 15


OTHER CHALLENGES
Remember, a (*) means the other skills are fair game!

Tricky 24 (Tightrope City) - 100%, 2 builders, 1 minute. *
Tricky 30 (The Crankshaft) - 100% with 8 builders and 4 miners.
Taxing 8 (The Art Gallery) - 3 builders. *
Taxing 11 (The ascending pillar scenario) - Get everyone to the exit through the ceiling.
Mayhem 13 (The Great Lemming Caper) - 1 builder. *
Crazy 12 (Lemming Friendly) - 100%, 2 builders. *
Crazy 15 (Worra load of old blocks!) - Pass the level going via the platform on the lower right.
Blitz 8 (Presents of Mind II) - Get everyone to the exit on the right.


XMAS RECORDS

16 - lose 2

Frost
6 - lose 1
14 - lose 6

Hail

All others - 100%.

[Dullstar]

Wow.  I must try that to see if it is possible (builder only challenges).  Does it mean Fun 9 TO Tricky 26, or (more likely) Fun 9 OR Tricky 26?

[Clam]

That's Fun 9 OR Tricky 26. Under the challenge condition the two are identical.

[Dullstar]

Ah.  You know, I prefer it when you refer to the levels by NAME, instead of rating and level number, so I know what you are talking about. It helps me to know what level I'm going to be working on doing...

[Dullstar]

After looking on Lemmings Encyclopedia, I kinda think that would be a worthy challenge, though as far as the game says, it shouldn't work out for Tricky 26.  Actually, I don't even know if you get enough builders.  I guess that's why they have Lemmix, then!

[Dullstar]

1 - 100%, 2 builders, 1 digger.

I don't know.  The builders don't reach high enough (if you allow Lemmix, anyways.  Do you mean "Two diggers and one builder?"

[Dullstar]

BOGUS TAME CHALLENGES
1:  Building Physics
2:  Mining Physics
3:  See 2
4:  Lemming Climb (without climber) dsitace
5:  How do you go down without digging, mining, or expoding?
6:  Physics ERROR
7.  Terrain ERROR

PLAUSIBLE
8:  Check time limit, however, the skill limit is confirmed to work.

Ah.  You know, I prefer it when you refer to the levels by NAME, instead of rating and level number, so I know what you are talking about.

I take it you haven't found the Levels Viewer mode then? That makes life a lot easier

I kinda think that would be a worthy challenge, though as far as the game says, it shouldn't work out for Tricky 26.  Actually, I don't even know if you get enough builders.

20 builders isn't enough for you?

I don't know.  The builders don't reach high enough (if you allow Lemmix, anyways.  Do you mean "Two diggers and one builder?"

That would be much too easy

And none of my challenges are "bogus" - I never post a challenge without completing it myself first.

[Clam]

W00t! New record!

Hail 5, "Get the Point?", improved to 100%.


(edit) Found a better solution to Taxing 3 with builders only. It now works for Fun 16 as well (which, oddly, has fewer builders available).

[Dullstar]

I don't know.  The builders don't reach high enough (if you allow Lemmix, anyways.  Do you mean "Two diggers and one builder?"

I'll try to run it on WinUAE (if I have the rom, anyways).

[Dullstar]

Okay, maybe not...
