Okay, so someone earlier brought up the question of why the darker medusa heads re-appear if you kill them with a shield, then come back into the room. This seemed like a bug to me (it seems that they should re-appear if killed with a flame, but should be permanently killed if you used a shield), but when I look at the source code, it turns out I *specifically* programmed it the way it is... that is, when making the game, I intentionally wanted them to re-appear, even if you used a shield to kill them. (Only if you die on the head, will it stay gone permanently.) This logic seems backwards to me now.<br />
<br />
But... that's the way the game is. And I have a feeling that changing it now would cause quite a bit of controversy. But I'm not sure. What do people think? Should the dark-green heads stay dead if you use a shield on them? I'd be in favor of such a change, but I don't know if it'd mess up certain mansions people have done. <br />
<br />
It's a very easy change to make, but just one I want feedback on first.<br />
<br />

Hi!<br />
How do you manage to do screen dumps of your results in a mansion. When I try I get the start game etc window, just as take the dump. I use Alt - Shift 4 and drag the cursor. I think the window change when I start press on the mouse. Any ideas?

Well, for those who wanted custom sprite replacement on a per-mansions basis, just like you have been able to do with tiles since 1.0.4, your request is now granted in the upcoming 1.0.8 release. :-)

Anyone finished this one? I love all of the hidden stuff. Looks like Freddy's done it again!

I am celebrating my birthday today. And it feels like a good moment to say ... hello! 47 years now. Feels good.<br />
<br />
Why I like MM? Well, I am a former competion chess-player. So I need brain-twisting. And, how paradoxically, while computers did harm chess, my new Apple-computer leaded me two years ago to the Midnight Mansion mac-game. And do I like it!<br />
<br />
Cheers!

Although it doesn't work perfect, especially on the blue background, our current advice is to use YELLOW TEXT when you give remarks that could spoil playing fun.

Once upon a time there was the <span style="color: #ff9900;">Infernal Runner</span>, btw still available at the board Free Up- &amp; Downloading.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 114px;">BUT</span><br />
<br />
Now there is also <span style="color: #ff9900;">Orpheus</span> which is downloadable at the <blockquote>3 Lists</blockquote>. This small mansion is the SERIOUS version of IR. And in contrary to the release of other mansions I have already now a special remark.<br />
<br />
In Midnight Mansion it is common to think in terms of secrets, dollars and reaching the exit. Well, in this mansion, I think EVERYBODY will be able to reach the finish (sooner or later ---> the lantern <GRRR>) and catch all secrets and money. But this mansion is a very nice test to see how strong you really are as a player. Target is: reach the exit with SEVEN lives left. Zero is also nice, but seven is perfect!

Why don't you just make it a sprite that moves like a bag like Joeb said?? Like a background picture? (This is sorta what Joeb said)
