The forums are run by three administrators. Read here who they are and what you may (and may not) expect from them.

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.

I have found a problem, not sure if it is just my system, or if others are having it,  but I cannot open any pages to download Custom Mansions. Undecided  

When I go to the page for the individual mansion, or even use the quick route on the top left of the forum page for 'the newest CMs' I get the message "404 cannot find, the requested file does not exist on this server." Embarrassed

thanks,

SandyBean Smiley


Yeah, the admins will have to fix some of the shortcut links. In the meantime, just go directly to the download section in the forums. That should still work.

... But the modify button wont let me modify... it says that some of the places need to be filled or something like that. Strange! ...

With 2.1, I know the system had a rule about when and how long a member was allowed to modify posts. And the Admins could change the parameters.

Give us a little bit time to check all those things, but please, do not hesitate to report this kind of odd things over here. Thx.

@ Wingy:
The post that you tried to modify, was it more than 5 days old?

Hi All,

Just to clarify a couple of things.  I can now use the quick link on top left of page to get to download page for those two mansions.  If I use the forum section for CMs, I get the 404 message.  So, things are improving! Cheesy

I also tried to modify my earlier message, within minutes of posting it, with no success. 

As for the time zone Freddy, I kind of enjoy knowing what time it is over there in Europe, since a lot of our members are there.  But you are correct, I did not change it to my time zone when I made my profile.  Roll Eyes

That's it from me, hope the feedback helps,

Thanks
Sandy Smiley

Although there are probably a whole bunch of improvements with the new forum software (although I have to still find out which), I must say there are also many disadvantages & confusions:

The whole appearance is very confusing. Operation has gotten harder instead of easier !
The fields in which you type your posts are smaller now, and there are less options within direct reach, e.g. the font colors are far less than before.

I also feel it has gotten much more difficult to see (at a glance) if there are new entries to a thread or not. The changed font sizes and overall color scheme is pretty tiring for my eyes, and also there is too many information per square inch, IMHO, in other words it looks a bit cluttered, crowded.

Maybe it just needs getting used to......??!   Undecided    Shocked    Cool
