[smiley=lolk.gif] Where have I seen that before??<br />
<br />
As far as I know the situation on the boards should be in this way now:<br />
1° guests may see all posts;<br />
2° all members (including all kinds of <blockquote>bosses</blockquote>) should be able to start new topics, reply etc.;<br />
3° Wingy's demand for Lost Ones, Wanderers etc. is fulfilled;<br />
4° it should be impossible to add emailaddresses (safety first).<br />
<br />
Showing screenshots, uploading mansions and lots of other things are for later.<br />
<br />
First I want to get rid of my 5 sheriff-stars. :<br />
<br />
EDIT: guests can't read the posts, only see the different forums, for the time being.

With some delay, I first of all want to thank Vern for the facilities he gave us, MM-addicts, with these boards. I was surprised, but much more flattered, that he chose me as the first person to give me administrator-rights. Although I have no experience at all, I will try to make the best of it, with the help of some other people. From the emails during the time-out, I know that there are certainly Mansioneers who want to help.<br />
<br />
What I tried to do last night, was making the forums visible for guests, while they are unable to post things. I think that these is the best way to disable nonsense as much as possible. And to avoid posts of members who forgot to log in. As you could see, I didn't succeed so far. :'(<br />
<br />
About the current forums I already made yesterday ... Of course it is right that the list is now very long. But I should not say it is a clutter. On the previous boards there were a lot of complains, and in my opinion rightly, that when the administrators do NOT create one forum for each mansion things get ... cluttered. Sorry for using that word. But to keep it to the biggest problem, for Midnight Mazes and Monsters, at the time that the former site went down, there were more than ten threads of which one had 25 pages. So everyone was begging for something more structured and that was what I tried to do in this way. Because the two mansionlists are indeed long (and look so empty), I used the alphabetical order for the custom mansions and the map-order for the included ones. Perhaps I need to make that last list also alphabetical. To summarize: what I did was based on earlier comments. And I hope I did well. Mmmm ... it feels good to be in discussion again! <br />
<br />
Meanwhile there is still a lot to do. But at the end, when Vern feels that everything seems to run smoothly, I hope that there will come a 6th tab at the ActionSoft/MidnightMansion-website, called <blockquote>Fansite</blockquote>. And that is my challenge: creating something that he believes in.<br />

During the next days it may happen that you see posts appearing and disappearing from a new member, called <blockquote>TTM</blockquote>. Don't worry! It is not spam, a robot or a hacker. It is a temporary, test-member that I created to check things.

If anyone should have suggstions for these boards, besides all obvious ones ...

[smiley=beer.gif] Well! Here we are! The boards seem to work, although they aren't finished yet.

Nightmare Mansion Easy doors and keys?
by jlpcubsfan

I can't get all the doors open in the 'upper' rooms of Nightmare Mansion easy.В  Therefore can't get all the money either.В  How to get the purple/green and purple/yellow sets of doors open on the right side?

I remember that Falcon Manor had doors that wouldn't be opened, but that this was possible to visit all over.

That is right, Olle. Some of the early mansion don't give you enough keys to open all doors. One just to make the best of it.

Re: Nightmare Mansion Easy doors and keys?

You are right Olle, theres a way to get all the gold and doors open, Start with the right wing first, I tried this mansion 4 times till i got what was the right way and which doors were to be opened first

I don't think I managed that but it might be the Falcon mansion that was the problem.

Room 16892 in Nightmare Mansion Easy
by seawinder

I've been replaying this mansion trying to get all the money/secrets. I'm just about to finish all the green area, but I'm unable to get down the ladder in the room mentioned. There's a discontinuity in the ladder with a zapper beam. No matter what I do, Jack falls to his death at that point. I've tried holding the left or right arrows with the down arrow, but no joy. Getting down the ladder is the only way to reach room 16893 and the money therein. Another weird thing: when I bring the mansion into Level Builder and test the room, I can get down the ladder with no problem. Any thoughts/ideas?

If I remember right this is a glitch that hasn't been repaired.

Thanks for the reply, Rose. Glad to see there are at least a few folks checking this board. I'll just forgo the coin in the interest of survival.

Hi seawinder. I still check the boards every day, but there's not anything I can do to fix problems with mansions. I'm very sad that this community has died, it was so great before. I miss it.

Hi seawinder, this may help you- try changing the screen resolution so your game window is as big as possible. There have been a couple of times where precise timing was required, and a bigger screen allowed Jack to creep more slowly. Honestly can't remember where I used this trick, and #16892 might be a real glitch (can't remember that either    ) but it's worth a try.

josehine, that is a trick I haven't heard off. I will try it.

Jack-stucks in Knight Mansion
by ryos

In room 15710 of Knight Mansion (any difficulty), it is possible to jump up into the area where all the scorpions wait after pulling the switch that releases them. If you do, you can't get out; Jack is stuck.This next applies only to Knight Mansion Hard, I think. If, after you obtain the first blue key, you go immediately to the top right and open the blue door that guards a shield and some treasure, you won't be able to get through the blue door that leads to all the other blue keys in the mansion. Stuck!I think there was another that I was going to report, but I forgot it. But, on the plus side, I made spot #9 on the global list, which I didn't think would happen to me on any mansion, let along a hard one.

That thing's only found in Normal and Hard.

Cathedral Towers Hard 14692
by rose

If you do as my Jack did and jump up on the stones to the right you can get on the right side of the blue door but you can't get out again!!!!!  Am I the only one trying stupid things like this? :-[

Re: Cathedral Towers Hard 14692
by brell

This is one of the stupid things that I have not tried yet  Thanks for the warning.  Let's hope that this will be fixed in some later version of MM

Hi rose, my Jack pulled that stupid trick one time, too. So don't feel bad.

Yup. Stupid move here too  ;DI vote for keeping it though, as a reminder to Jack to pay attention.

Version 1.2.0b was released way back a few years ago or something and it fixed that.

C athedral Towers Nor

I have gotten to room 14098 but can not enter the yellow finish area. The lever swaps doors so I can not enter it. What have I missed?
