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.

Help with School MM project
07.10.2008 at 21:55:56

Hi -I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place - couldn't figure where it should go. My grandson, Grayson, is using MM as a topic for a quarterly speech at school. It's a short presentation - he's telling about MM, the origins of the game, the MM forums and where everyone is from, the basics of the game, etc. and how he enjoys building mansions. At the end he wants to give a demonstration of a 2 room castle he designed that include all the elements of the game. When he tries to play the castle he gets the attached error message. He's made lots of mansions, and this hasn't happened before. He sent it to me, and I can't play it either - although I can open the mansion and look at it. Any ideas? The presentation is on Thursday. Thank you.

I think I recognize this error message, I might be wrong though but it could be worth a look
If I'm right, this happens if you for instance have a zapper beam node but not the corresponding one, for instance; a left node is present, but the right one is not, or the bottom node is present, but the top one is not.
The sprite instructions then have nowhere to go, and the error message occurs.

Thus look for lonely bottom or left zapper nodes...
