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 am not sure whether Surcouf would like it if I gave away a hint

No problem, Brell. It's just for fun...

Jack must get from the place on the "before" picture to the red brick in a hurry

Can you solve it from this starting point?! Although I am the author, I can't Sad I think it is easier taking a run-up from the base green switch,  more elk...
I am strongly adviced by AquaMat to include a BBB hint in this room, like "Green first then Rock that Belt!"-I think he's right.

Hummm - "green" first?  That's odd - with a little help from a friend and a lot of trying over and over again, I was finally able to do it!

That was, IMHO, a great room - BUT WHERE'S THE REST OF THE MANSION!  I want MORE..........

Seems like little Jack was lost in some huge mansion, but he's finally found a way out... thanks to Vern, Freddy & Brell!

In my opinion it is much easier starting up there and not touching the green bottomfloor button.

Just keep it as it is. Let people find their own way of solving this!

But brell,

how do you get "up there" (once the room is inside a complete mansion) without activating one or more of the other switches first ??

And that's where the problem lies.....

I just jump over the floorbutton that opens the trapdoor.

Yes, of course.

But how do you jump over the double green switches on top of the belt?

I never managed that......  Sad

I don't jump over them.  I run over them with a very short delay after opening the trapdoor to allow the key to reach the let end of the belt before running to the red button.  Works almost every time.
