Oops, I totally missed including an updated The Caves and the Castle in Beta 2! Here is an update.

Good Morning,

1)  Pls look at pic.  Notice the 2 files that are in the Mansions folder (they are music files not mansions)  Dr. Demented & Maga Peaks

Don't ask me how they got there.....should I move them?
Where to please?

2)  btw:  I did not get an email that MM2 update link was ready.  How come?  What is wrong with this system?

3)  Where do we post the NEW findings?  In the old post section?  Won't that make things real confusing?

Hi Missy,

Those aren't music files, they're just text files, probably notes someone made to themselves (I think).

The email notifications aren't working, it's a problem with the boards. You just have to keep checking the forums for new posts.

Thanks!

Post in the beta 2 topic of the mansion. For example, if you wanted to post something on Mount Peril, go to the topic Beta 2: Mount Peril.

I think that I read a post from Vern somewhere about a new feature allowing us to find ie: key & room numbers along with other things.

Is this feature now active? If yes, where do I find it & how do I/we use it?

Hi Missy,

I think you must be referring to the new features that have been added to the Mansion Level Builder.

I think Open room ID… is new in the file menu (I don't remember it before but it might have been there). It's very useful for quickly finding rooms referred to on this forum.

In the special menu Count keys/doors… and Find sprite in mansion… are new.

To use Find sprite in mansion… you just highlight a sprite in the row above the room picture and it tells you how many times the sprite appears in the mansion and in which rooms. The first picture shows the result for those nasty eyeballs in Mount Peril Normal. There must be more than one eyeball in one or more of these rooms (15 eyeballs in 13 rooms).

Count keys/doors… shows the total number of each colour keys and doors and is very useful for the builder to check that there are equal numbers of each. The result from Mount Peril Normal is shown below. Whoops!!! (but there might be good reason for the discrepancy – I haven't played the mansion).

Thank You very much Mapman for the easy to follow instructions.
To bad tho, the MLB does NOT show the room numbers when looking on the map. The new list showing the room numbers for ie: green keys, well, it would be great if the system would highlight the rooms on the MLB MAP.
It is such a pain to type or copy each room number into the Room ID box and look individually. But I guess that it is way better than nothing. I just wish that it were a lot easier to find a missing green key. hmmmm

Is there a list of room numbers for the secrets?

In the MLB highlight the S at the right-hand end of the row of sprites and use Find sprite in mansion... in the Special menu.
