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.

MM HD Back To Square One: stuck?
14.11.2011 at 18:08:28
 
Room 16211 (ish)

From where Jack is standing, he can climb up, but there's no place to go once up.

The clearance won't allow him to step OFF the ledge he's standing on and jump up onto the red pathway.

Tell me what I'm missing, please?

Make that "step OFF the ledge he's standing on and jump up onto the red pathway OR back to the green blocks".

I'm just going by memory here, but I think Jack jumps up to catch a vine from where he's standing in your pic.

The vine is what I was referring to when I said "he can climb up".

Climbing up the vine still gives me nowhere to go (that I've been able to suss out).

Are you talking about the vine that we can see the end off?

Keep jumping straight up,  more than once.

Did that, too.  Smiley  The map shows an upper vine, and I "felt" the blocks that I jumped up on. I still ended up with no place to go.

AND... I haven't been able to work my way back to that spot again. The next time I played, I got "next" to that spot, but ended up way on top of the mansion somehow.  Cheesy It is a good and complex one.

This time through, I ran up against being blocked from proceeding. I ended up back at almost the beginning, and then couldn't proceed because the room I was in (17003) used a one-time lever that wouldn't function again.

Screenshot attached.

I'll keep plugging away.

Thanks.  Smiley

Dear Mick.  When you post these pictures PLEASE don't skip the uppermost part so we can see how many keys Jack is holding and so on.
If seems to me that when you restarted the mansion you took another way from the beginning, i.e. you didn't start with the easy section.
The lever in this room only opens the red trap doors so it is a one time lever.  The problem is that somewhere before you have turned silver blocks to gold without ever turning them back.  This is my fault and I will upload a fixed version soon.
In the other room, 16211, from where Jack is standing, he is able to go straight up.  The next time you played you were in another route and thus ended at a different place in the next room.  Note that the small portion of vine just to the left of the structure is NOT accessible to Jack from where he is standing.
