This is the full package including free keyfile and all levels from the registered version. I haven't included the levels from other authors for I didn't ask them for permission. Even if you don't want to design new levels, you can install the editor just to play the included 33 levels. Only 9 persons have registered the Lem2LevEd so far. Wow. So this is the reward for spending months of work in such a program. Thanks to all registered users out there! NOTE: You need to have Lemmings 2 installed to your harddisk already.

Recommended ~~~~~~~~~~~ - kick 3.0 (V39) or higher - 2 MB of Chip memory - 2 MB of Fast memory - MC68020 or higher - AGA machine - multiscan monitor - Commodities/AutoPoint or similar tool History ~~~~~~~ V2.1 (04-May-98): - Dunno what I've changed or added except for the 'Activate Level Window' option. V2.0 (20-Feb-97): - Added support for custom graphics! - Misc changes. - Patch: Added sounds to menu. - Patch: Added keyboard function to quit out (shift-q). - Patch: Added raw support for CUSTOM LEVEL GRAPHICS! - Fixed a little bug in the getmodename routine. V1.3 (21-Jan-97): - Patch now handles file imploded files as well: Demo worlds are much smaller now. - Added update-only feature in the installer-script. V1.3 (08-Jan-97): - Fixed a bug in the undo feature when disabling the objects showing. (Normally this affected Line and Bar Drawing). - Changed the Installer-Script to handle the lems2HD.lha file instead of the lzx one, as (please insert appropriate word) aminet server now just kills archives if it finds lzx archives in there. V1.3 (02-Jan-97): - Added some tooltypes: "LEMMINGSDIR=drawer" allows you to move the editor to other places. "HELPFILE=file.guide" specifies the file to use for the online help. "WORMSDIR=drawer" specifies a default drawer for saving levels. - Fixed a bug which caused some menu items to be enabled, even if the tribe graphics loading process failed and therefore no level existed. Selecting these items would cause the computer to crash. - Due to a bug, the Editor would crash on MC68000 when level was written back, or when using a keyfile. This is now fixed. This *also* should fix the illegal memory hits on A3000/A4000 with keyfile. - Disabled some menus by default to avoid the user selecting the items which are unavailable. - Finally added conversion routines for Worms levels. Both Worms 1 and Worms DC (AGA) levels are supported. - Disabled the dos-requesters during help file search. - Now the window positions and dimensions are stored for each level size individually. Prefs file had to be extended. - Minor changes & optimizions. V1.2 (12-Oct-96): - Added spare bars options for Ben. V1.1 (26-Sep-96): - Second public release. - Fixed that stupid bug causing scrambled gfx. The bitmap structure was filled with wrong mem-pointers when d3 contained non 0 in the upper word. Sorry about this one. - Minor changes. V1.0 (17-Sep-96): - Updated Installer-Script: Can now also install Lemmings 2 if the patch archive is present. Also will unpack the demoworlds if such an archive if found. - Minor changes. Copyright notice ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This software is Copyright 1996 by Chris Hodges. All rights reserved.
