No, I didn't! I am waiting for the version that one doesn't have to swap anything, like some in MM1.

I find it to much of a hassle to swap back and forth.

It doesn't make a sound in every room though. I just found out that entering room 16703 doesn't pling!

I have in MM1 played custom mansions without changing to new graphics and they didn't make any protesting pling sound.

I have played Dominator without changing the to the custom sprites etc. and it didn't pling at all. I have played on in Ghosthunter and it seems that is is mostly in the beginning where there are are black background parts in the rooms where it makes pling sounds.

If there are graphics and/or sound files that need switching, you must switch them on your own because there will never be a version where you don't have to.

I can't use the Ghosthunter set because of an error message. It's the sound a key makes when an action cannot be taken - if that makes sense!

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.
