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.

Playing saved games
01.12.2015 at 00:58:49
 
I cant seem to play saved games from the downloaded HD mansions. I run a Mac version 10.11.1

The game was originally downloaded from the App store Episodes 1 & 2, I have tried downloading the demo from the Actionsoft site and that combines the 2 versions, but still cant play the saved games. Any ideas would be much appreciated. Thanks

What do you mean you can play saved games? Could you describe what you see and do and what isn't happening or any error message? I don't have the latest MacOs.

Where is your Saved Games folder?  It should be in:

~/Library/Application Support/ActionSoft/Midnight Mansion/Saved Games

Hi
The error message I get is the mansion file could not be found please make sure this mansion is inside the custom mansion folder. I have checked that the downloaded mansions are inside the custom mansion folder, is this anything to do with having purchased the game from the App store?

What is the name of the custom mansions folder?  It should be "Midnight Mansion HD Custom Mansions"

Each of the custom mansions should appear in folders inside this folder:

Is the name of the folder EXACTLY:

Midnight Mansion HD Custom Mansions

?

According to Vern it must be exactly as written above.  Not "MM HD Custom Mansion" or "MM HD Custom Mansion Folder" etc.
