How do you open a mansion in the level builder? - Semi-Native - 07-20-2011
Now that everything's in folders, I can't figure out how to open a mansion. I wanted to check the number of secrets in Tomb of Princes Easy (also Normal and Hard). I consistently get 83% secrets in Easy and I've tried everything. There were one or two places which I thought should be secrets, but they didn't register.

Short answer is you can't. I think if you had a resource editor you could re-pack all the folders into a mansion file, but I don't know if that would work.
Supposedly it will work before Ep2 is released. Maybe?

Episode 1 and 2 will be released at the same time.
For a number of months, the Level Builder will remain as-is, and be a separate download. As-is means: requires Rosetta to run on Intel Macs. And you must open the original format of the mansion to edit it. Then you
exportthe mansion to the HD format to play it.
You can't open mansions that have been exported. To open them, you must open the original file and edit it, and re-export.
I looked up secret counts for you though.:
Tomb of Princes Easy - 12
Normal - 17
Hard - 28

Found the 2 secrets I missed, and got 100% in ToP Easy.

Does this mean that players with OS X 10.7 (Lion) will not be able to build and edit custom mansions until the builder is updated? And how will the
exportbe done?

They must be well hidden! I have slowly played ToP 4 times today to find secrets and only found one new so I am up to 10 S, but not 12 :'(

Yes, Brell. It'll be a little while before I can update the editor, too.

OK but how will the export of mansions from the old format to HD be done?
