Hi Chippy/Mikee

Sorry I don't know the answer to your question, I just wanted to say hi. 

Hello!

First off, it's been a long time since I was active on here but I hope people are doing fine! (previously known as "Mikee" on here)

To my issue:
I would like to play Midnight Mansion again on my Windows computer AND also on my old MacBookAir (OS 10.6.3) where I can start building them as well.
The problem is, I can't download the game anymore from the website, neither the Windows version nor the Mac Version link does work anymore. Is there any way to download the game?

(NOTE: I do have MM1, MM HD and MM2 still on my MacBookAir already and working, but I want to experience it on my Windows PC too)

EDIT: Updating my old Code doesn't work anymore and using the "Free Code" to update doesn't work as well, sadly can't experience the whole game like this again 

Thank you in advance for the help!

The dreadful shield problem.  Fixed in MM HD but not in MM2.

I always try to get rid of at least one shield to keep empty space for a key.

In the one-chance-only puzzle I did find a Jack-stuck.

See picture.

Jack came from the top floor where pulled the lever with the green knot to change the silver blocks into gold ones. Then he climbed down the ladder and jumped to the right to pick up a gold coin and the green key. When he arrived at the bottom floor he noticed that the key didn’t get a place in the inventory because of all the shields. He can’t get up in this room and in the two to the left he is also locked in.
:’(

I have a rather weird idea to fix it. If it works … 

Nearly nothing changed in the green area. Brave New World now ends in the shown room with the obliged save, checkpoint and red bricks wall.

Enclosed you find the zip for BNW Rainbow 005.

I thought I would give it a try.

I forgot he other problem, since there is no "A" folder, opening the save fails. It seems that the only way to get saves to work on custom mansions is rename them with one letter.

I don't know a whole lot about Windows, but don't try to change the name of the mansion when you're saving it.

I've been having this problem since I first set it up on a PC, but I keep forgetting to ask about it.

When I save a custom mansion, say Arevn_s_Mansion_HD, it wants to save to A 1 ... just A.

If I put in Arevn_s_Mansion_HD as the save name, when I try to load the save I get an error Message that says

The Mansion File 'A' could not be found. Please make sure this mansion is inside the Custon Mansions folder and try again.

Any ideas?

It took me many months but in December 2022, at last I could buy an old iMac using mac os 10.5.8. It runs MM1-HD and MM2 including its builder. With the latter it is possible to convert MM1 custom mansions to MM2 within certain limits. But the tool works!


Since my newer iMac uses macos 12.7.4 with 64-bit processor it is impossible to run any MM-application on that machine. And it is also impossible to up- or download usable zip-files for custom mansions. So the downloading of custom mansions absolutely has to be done with a mac with 32-bit processor.


A small word about ‘Rainbow castle’. It is not a castle, not even a mansion. That is why I called it a world: ‘Brave New World’. Short: BNW. did all the betatesting during the building. The state of BNW is that after 15 months this custom mansion got finished, but IMO already needed a revision (the flow, the level ’normal' …). Nearly since the start of the revisions the new series of beta-zipfiles are called ‘BNW Rainbow’, just because I added a rainbow key. BNW Rainbow 004 contains the first 4 areas of the whole Brave New World mansion and does NOT end at an exit gate, but at a red brick wall with a checkpoint that gives you the best possible score (dollars and cecrets) at that point.
