Uploaded to ftp://ftp.devoresoftware.com/downloads are the files emm386.zip and himem.zip containing uncompressed executables of, respectively, EMM386.EXE and HIMEM.EXE, plus the source files modified in this latest version.

EMM386 adds support for EMS function 51h, reallocate pages. This enhancement allows Lemmings 3 The Chronicles, known in Europe as All New World of Lemmings, to execute, through title screens. My test copy of Lemmings 3 failed due to CPU speed restrictions, but the SLOWDOWN utility allowed it to work a while.

I also modified HIMEM so that its text feedback properly showed the /MAX option to be /MAX= instead of a trailing colon. No operational differences were made, just the one text character was changed.

If anyone has Lemmings 3 to test and still encounters problems, I will need a patched or updated copy which works with faster machines to test. Otherwise I can't tell whether the instability here is due to the machine slowdown to 5% normal, EMM386, or an entirely different cause.
