Don't know if it'll help find the tape issue problem, but here's a tape in team mode that's messed up.
Seems to mess up around 1:24

Re: Alphabetical levels in RnD engine
So for a levelset like this 001.level 001.20250803.level 001.alternative ending.level 001.bad.level 001.Tues.level 002.level, mode 'Only use numerically-named levels' would jump between 001.level and 002.level 'Only use numerically-named levels' I get what you're saying, but imagine you're a user a...

Re: Alphabetical levels in RnD engine
And if you still wanted to have a numeric sort, you would only need to make sure that each level had a unique number at the start of its name, eg 001 falling rocks.level 002 beaucoup de diamonds.level 003 chasing fireflies.level 004.enter the butterfly level 005,amoeba!!!.level Note that as long as...

DATE OF RECORDING info displayed isn't updated when new level is chosen from HALL OF FAME.
DATE OF RECORDING info displayed isn't updated when new level is chosen from HALL OF FAME. In the MAIN MENU there's a box that has "DATE OF RECORDING", and a time for that tape. It's updated with <- or -> around the level number, and when the level is selected from the click number select ...

Re: Possible work-around for continuing in middle of tape playback issue
Looking at the 'HELP' for the one in the subfolder I see "ESE VERSION 1.2 UPDATED AUGUST 2006." and "FOR ROCKS & DIAMONDS VERSION 3.2.0", for the one outside I see "ESE VERSION 1.1" and "FOR ROCKS & DIAMONDS VERSION 3.0.8". I'll call these 1.2 version...

Re: Alphabetical levels in RnD engine
I think this would still allow levelsets of numerically named levels to work as normal, as the numeric ordering is also alphabetical, in a sense. There's more than one way to sort... uppercase first the lowercase then numbers... ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789 Numbers...

Re: Duplicate or Similar Levelsets and High Score Server
The "level set identifier" is simply the name of the level set sub-directory. Unless one of the two level sets is unknown on the high score server! This can probably (hopefully) be fixed on the high score server directly, so that you should get the correct score entries in the "hall ...

To be able to better test this special case, could you please zip both folders "Earth_Shaker_Collection" (including folder "Earth Shaker Explosions") and "Earth_Shaker_Explosions" and attach them to your reply? Then I should be able to perfectly reproduce the problem h...

Duplicate or Similar Levelsets and High Score Server
Back when I installed levels (a long time ago, forgot if anything special was done) I ended up with identical(as far as I can quickly tell) levelsets accessible from the choose levelset menu. With one of the identical levelsets pairs there's a levelset that new scores seam to appear to be showing on...

Re: Possible work-around for continuing in middle of tape playback issue
So, any hints on specific steps on a specific level (probably with specific points during playing where to save or load snapshots) that have a high probability to produce a broken tape situation (therefore being able to reproduce this bug with a relatively high probability) would be highly apprecia...

Re: Possible work-around for continuing in middle of tape playback issue
I will have another look at this specific level and tape again! That one's a rarity. It clearly messes up(around 5:01 mark), but then goes back to playing normal (around 5:51 mark). Most of the time when it messes up, once it messes up, it's messed up from that point on. Might be like trying to fol...

Re: Possible work-around for continuing in middle of tape playback issue
The attachment at the 1st post of this thread hints that there's bug situation at a specific point during playback which screws up the rest of playback, and not all the rest of the playback being messed up. 100-sp_level_collection_95-MessedUp-ButMakesItToEndExceptForEmeralds.tape (5.96 KiB) https://...
