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.

Sorry for the confusion.  The level I am working on is for the original Midnight Mansion game -- not for Midnight Mansion 2.  I was just wondering if the level editor for MM2 had the same limits as the original MM level editor -- I was thinking of someday doing a second mansion in MM2 and wanted to know if I'd run into the same problem or not.

I think both editors have the same limit.

Yup, Brell is right, as I remember both editors has the same limit, but I think, maybe you've put to many sprites in those rooms you already got, maybe thats why you can't make any more new rooms, but I'm not sure.

Undecided
Sigh...  I'm very frustrated.  I have completed the mapping out of the initial 444 rooms.  Now I am running into a limit where I cannot add additional items within a room.  I think the best course of action at this point is to shave an additional "level" of rooms off of the mansion.  This will remove about 25 rooms from the mansion -- so there will still be over 400 rooms.  This will be the third time I've had to do this.   Cry
