A brief history of the game
At first there was Midnight Mansion, now often called MM1. This game package was for Mac only and contained 8 mansions, each on easy, normal and hard level. Above that there was a builder included, so that customers could design mansions themselves.
Then there was Midnight Mansion HD, now abbreviated as MM1 HD for both Mac and Windows. It contained the 3x8 mansions from MM1 plus 3x a bonus mansion: Tomb of Princes. All in high definition!
Actionsoft's latest game, Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills, includes 28 mansions with a lot of new features. The 8 built-in mansions have 3 difficulties along with 4 extra custom mansions. Yes indeed, the MM2 package also has an included builder to create mansions!

Custom mansions

In the past decades several customers started experimenting with the builders. Creating rooms. Talking about it on the Midnight Mansion Forums. Sending their own designed mansions to other board members to test them. And finally sending them to the administrators of MMF.
Result? Nearly 200 extra mansions are downloadable from these boards and some of them have over 100 rooms.
If you like to download custom mansions, go to the General Custom Mansions Area (Mac and Windows) where you find the lists with all the download spots.

Not for serious mansions!

This sticky will try to make the difference more clear, between custom mansions that are supposed to get listed and all the rest.

The Free Up- & Downloading forum is not the place to use the attachment- or url-facilities for mansions that you want to get listed. This board is meant for experimental stuff with duplicated Jacks, for joke-mansions, for special effects like Jack-on-the-moon or for completely unfinished mansions. In other words: for "mansions" that are never supposed to get on the List of Completed Mansions.

But, when you are making a "serious" mansion, we think that you, as the designer, AND all players, both want to have it right. We also believe that it isn't a good idea to bring this kind of serious to be taken mansions on the boards, before they have been tested thoroughly. That isn't good for the Midnight Mansion game itself and also not for the reputation of the designer(s). Among the forummembers there are a lot of starting easy-skilled players and we are pretty sure that they don't like playing mansions that are not finalized yet. They have enough difficulties with the game itself!

The right way to get your new serious mansion uploaded is easy. Read the sticky "How to upload a mansion". For your comfort you can click HERE to have a direct link to that post. You will see that our only demand is, that your mansion is beta-tested. If you don't know anyone to do that, just start a topic at Custom Mansions Area / Talk and ask for volunteers.
