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.

HD ready MM1 custom mansions

To be able to use the custom mansions that were built for the original Midnight Mansion game (MM1) they have to be converted.  We, the admins, are testing all the original MM1 cm's and will eventually upload them in HD ready format to the same download pages where the original MM1 cm's are stored.  We will also make a list of the HD ready cm's with links to their download pages.
Note that we will not make a new category for talk about individual MM1 HD cm's.  Instead we will use the same category that hosts the boards for talk about individual, original MM1 cm's.

Note that you can convert your old cm's yourself but they may still not be playable due to some changes in the game engine.  The faq also explains how to convert mansions with custom graphics which is a rather difficult job.  We, the admins, will not spend our time on fixing custom graphics in original cm's to make them work in the HD.  We will, however, try to contact the authors and ask them if they are interested in doing that for us.
