Actionsoft's latest game, Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills,  includes 28 mansions. The 8 Built-in mansions have 3 difficulties along with 4 extra custom mansions. We don't have that many other custom MM2 mansions yet. Design your own custom mansion! Info below.  You can find out more about the game here.

The original Midnight Mansion game contains over 150 mansions. The 8 included mansions which have 3 difficulty levels each, and about 115 approved custom mansions which you can download here and also several freely uploaded mansions. To know the difference between these three types of mansions, click here.

Are you a creative person and thinking of designing a mansion yourself? Or want to know about how to upload it? Click here and we'll show you! You'll find guidelines for betatesters here.

News:
Midnight Mansion 2: The Haunted Hills version 1.0.2b has been released. This fixes a bug in Jasperlone Mountains Hard. Simply re-download the game, bring over your custom mansions folder from the old version and play on. All your saves and high scores will not be changed.

Midnight Mansion HD (MM1) is now available at the Mac App Store and at the Actionsoft website. A Windows version is now available.

Here is a list of downloadable MM1 HD ready custom mansions, which also work in the Windows version of the game.

The MM2 custom mansion Hanging Gardens of Babylon by Freddy/SandyBean/Josephine/brell was updated on 19. Nov 2023 to add a fourth section. Available here

Zapper beam sound too low?

Could it be that the sound of zapper beams in the HD is too low?  At least lower than in the original?

Why do you ask Brell? Lower than the original what? Mansion? MM?

I don't find the zapper beams sound too low or lower than in the original MM. But then again I do have a very good hearing.

I don't.  I found out, however, that by choosing softer music in the controls I hear the beams better.

Ah, that is what I have on too. I remember I had thoughts about the music when we started testing MM HD and Vern added this Softer music option.

It is possible the sound effects volume balancing is different. i've had to rip out and replace the sound engine several times while developing the HD version (lots of frustrating problems in each!) and they all handle stereo-3D panning of sounds differently. Meaning that, while I've tried to make the HD version as close to the original as possible, it's quite possible things are different. I'm open to suggestions if you think something should be louder or softer.

As I said above:  My hearing is not what it used to be  Wink

If I set the sound a little higher and use the "softer music" feature it is OK.

I hate those zapper sounds anyway, it usually means death for Jack.
