Some updates I made while going through the mansion again

1.removed 2 birds near the beginning that were impossible to get past without dieing

2.made an obstical near the beginning easier to get past

You can use the forums to tell your beta testers your updates, but I would suggest to use e-mail only seeing you might give something away, and that's the way beta testing usually works.

You have sent the mansion to your testers via e-mail, right? Then you should communicate with your testers about the mansion via e-mail and not here. Then, when your mansion is thoroughly tested and in your and your testers' opinion, ready to be uploaded, you should send it to one or more admins.

Well... for one thing, I was unable to start the custom mansion within the game as a custom mansion. When I try, it is simply grayed out and I'm unable to select it. Also, it still has the icons from the first game which seems a little weird. If the mansion editor was already open and I double clicked on the mansion, I could see it in the editor. Oddly enough I couldn't simply open it in the editor directly.

I did try to reply back via email to mention the issue, but so far I haven't heard back, yet. I also sent a message to Catwoman and she's having the same issue.

Sometimes Mac resources get messed up via email and zipping can prevent that. I changed the type and creator via MacCT and still couldn't open it in either the builder or the program. After downloading mine didn't have any icon.

Make sure you've read and agree with the rules of posting here! 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.
