Weird thing 1
In the dark room is a press button that activates ‘something’ that helps Jack up and away from the bottom floor. But not for long. That ‘thing’ is a moving platform. What else? But at the turning point down-to-up Jack falls through the platform to the bottom floor. I tried to reconstruct this issue out in a test mansion but everything worked fine.

Weird thing 2
In room 16100 are three vines with a yellow top. Those are (supposed to be) solid. E.g. when Jack stands on the top of the middle top and jumps down to the top at the left, he will die. But the right vine …
:o
That top doesn’t work and Jack keeps on climbing although there is no room above. He disappears into eternity. More or less. When you press 10 seconds UP you may bring Jack back by pressing DOWN for 10 seconds.

@ semi-native: I can fix that with bringing the top 1 tile down. Then he stops as suspected with his feet on the top (and his hat inside the score bord.  Okay that I fix it?

It seems that there are two different styles to present the HD-mansions.

See picture with the downloads of 3 HD-mansions. Back to Square One and The Bat House are presented as ready-to-drag to the Custom Mansions folder while others like Shy Boxes (and Octopus Mansion) give a folder with a zip-file that needs to be unzipped to get the playable folder.

Problem solved! But maybe we need to make a choice between the two systems. IMO ready-to-drag, but I assume that there was a reason to add the readme-file. So:


Edited: I see that this post needs to be in a new topic, but I don’t have time to fix that immediately. I soon will do.

I am just back from your interesting mansion. With 50 % secrets. I am not surprised because I had problems in a dark room and couldn't enter several other rooms that I saw on the map.

brell did put my attention on the different working of lanterns, so probably that is the point. Before going further about this, I have a completely other question. On this board it seems impossible to add attachments. Is that supposed to be? Or is it possible to change that?]]>

There is a room with two blue doors and a switch to open a trap door. If you obtain two blue keys elsewhere in the level, ignore the switch, and open both blue doors, then you won't have enough blue keys to finish the level. On the other side of the second blue door is...nothing.
