version 1.1.8 is here
#11
Thanks, SandyBean.

The reason that you don't actually
see
the improvements in the update is that Vern usually released an update even when there was just one special issue to improve....don't forget that MM was already pretty perfect with version 1.0 !

BUT: some things you must surely notice - if you know where to look:

One of the most important improvements (somewhere between version 1.1.0 and 1.1.3 I guess) was the removal of the
ceiling bug
.
In the old versions whenever Jack took a moving platform that went up until the upper
edge
of the room / screen - and there was no ceiling there - Jack would die. Even though I sometimes used that bug as a feature (an added
hardship
or trap for Jack) Vern has removed it. And rightly so.

Some other major improvements concern the building side of things - for example the tile display in the MLE got bigger.

Trust me - the update was definitely worth it....!

Yes, just to say -- SandyBean -- the Midnight Mansion folder inside of Application Support is used by *any* copy of Midnight Mansion you run on your computer. So you can upgrade to new versions of the game, and you'll still have your saved games, high scores, license file, and so on, because those aren't kept in the Midnight Mansion folder that you upgrade -- they are kept in Application Support (which you don't need to touch).
