Is it possible to get all secrets in the included normal mansions in one go?  As far as I can see it is not possible in Falcon manor normal but how about the others?  I am replaying the included mansions trying to get 100% secrets but if it is not possible I won't bother.

It should always be possible to get 100% secret score in the end. It used to be impossible in various mansions because of secret miscounts (that's how people ended up with highest score 93% for example), but I think it has been fixed now.

Even in Falcon Manor, where you cannot visit all rooms, the mansion's 'total amount of secrets' field should be filled by taking this into account. Say, if there are two non-overlapping ways, each of them containing 7 secrets, then the 'total amount of secrets' should be counted as 7, and not 14 (even though there are, physically, 14 secrets).

Does this make any sense?

And of course, if one way contains 7 secrets and the other 6, then taking the wrong way forces you to have a lower-than-perfect Secret score.

Hmm? I have already 100% in Falcon Manor normal.  :-/

OK thanks

If I remember correctly, I was pretty careful to make sure that each path had the same number of secrets available.  But I might be wrong about that.  Of course this would all change with the update to Falcon Manor that should make it possible to visit all rooms, because then all secrets would be available, so 100% would be 14 again (in your example) instead of 7.

It should be possible now, but this is somewhat untested. So if you find it's impossible to get 100% in a given mansion, let me know!

:'( Bad news, since the problems of the Falcon Manors are larger than only the amount of secrets. But Alan Falcon is working on it.
