Stuck in Ultimate maze Please help
20.03.2012 at 01:44:32

I apologize for asking for help...I know I got through this before but I cannot remember what the tip was so if someone could please pm me I'd appreciate it, and spoilers are welcomed I'm just getting frustrated now and want to escape.

Somewhat related, the Map is not working for me in the hd version it is sooooo slow that i cannot use it, has anyone else had this problem? It so far is only with the larger mansions and this certainly qualifies. I don't have a blazing fast computer, but i'm not sure if that is the problem here.

iMac OS 10.6.8
2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo
4GB RAM

SPOILER ALERT!!!!!

There are 2 different paths you need to follow. To change paths, you need to get up to either the top left or top right corner. Stay on the ladder and let Jack's feet dangle below the ghost platform. When it reappears, Jack can drop down onto the other ghost platform and proceed with the other part. You're going to have to do this more than once, because of all the keys. Good luck!

I'm not 100% sure, but I think the map does slow down in larger mansions. And MM&M is HUGE!

Thanks for the link, I actually read that thread before I posted and I'm sure I must be missing something terribly obvious because it does nothing for me.
If the hint involves using the map I guess I'll have to go back to the pre HD version because it takes me about 10 minutes to scroll from one side to the other in this maze and thats just one level not going up or down at all.

Love this castle, but I've not much hair left at this point:)

Thanks, that should do it.

Yeah I guess its my iMac its a few years old but I do have the non hd version so I can fire up that and do a screen cap...feels kinda like cheating but it helps.

I don't think it is your computer. My MacBook Pro is a little slower than your iMac and I have not encountered any slow maps.

Have you played the HD version of MM&M with no slow down of maps? It is only with the hd version and large maps that it happens for me.

Because if you have a slower mac and do not have problems with the hd version then it must be my computer.

I have played Midnight Mazes and Monsters but didn't finish it because I got to the maze with red bricks and I hate it. I didn't notice any delay or slow down when looking at the maps.

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.
