Hi!
Can anyone help me with this level.... how do I pass the rocks above the magic wall?

Just wait until the next version of Rocks 'n' Diamonds, which will have the original code and these levels are possible then.

Nasty one... And indeed unsolvable in R'n'D -- yet.

That's right! But ...

... but note that although Martijn and Darkon are generally right (the new game engine, which is already available in the pre-release version Darkon mentioned, can indeed play EMC levels like the one you mentioned), this does still not work for the old (converted) levels. The new game engine is able to play the unmodified, unconverted original EMV levels (and can indeed solve that level as I just checked), which means that the currently available EMC levels have to be replaced by new sets containing the original levels. This is indeed something I'm working on (when I have some free time) and which is in fact nearly finished.
So you will soon(*) be able to play this level exactly as on the Amiga! :-)
(*) "soon": There is only very little work left to do, but I'm currently massively out of time, so it probably will still take more time than planned... :-(

If these levels were EM or EMC style levels in their originals, then yes: These levels will then all be exactly playable like the originals (timing, behaviour etc.).
