Room 16892 in Nightmare Mansion Easy

[pnmoss]

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.
