[Java Edition 26.3] Luigi's Mansion

And the grand reward is.... a haunted house?!

You won a Mansion from a contest you didn't even enter and later you find out that the Mansion is haunted as well. Now you have to battle your way through the ghosts to save Mario.



This is my faithful recreation of the original Luigi's Mansion game for the Nintendo GameCube, completely functional, without the need for any mods.

From portrait ghosts, to Boos, from the Purple Punchers to Yellow Bats, all ghosts in the original game are here in the map and behave identical (or nearly identical) to the original game.


Save your progress throughout the map, as the map behaves exactly like the game, discarding unsaved data if you close the map.


How to install the map is explained in the "Installing and notes.txt" inside the downloaded zip.


If you wish this map was instead based on the 3DS Remake of the game, it absolutely can be changed to be that way, all you need to do is install the 3DS Remake add-on shipped with the download.

Settings

Music and sounds are all assigned to appropriate sliders; if there's 2 tracks of music that play, the ambience slider is used for the second track
Render distance: your choice, the map loads in the needed chunks as you play, so it won't break.
Brightness: Set to brightest; the darkness of the mansion is based on the dimension's ambient lighting. If you set it to bright, you'll have the intended brightness of the mansion.
GUI scale: anything except the highest scale, if it is set to the highest scale, some text will go off screen.

Heads-up

What you download is not a map file directly, but a bundle containing the map, resource pack, optional add-ons and instructions how to install them.

This is a CPU heavy map to run, especially in rooms with mirrors. If your computer is unable to handle it, there's not much I can do (I will attempt to optimize further in the future, but that may be hard, without removing functionality).

The map is multiplayer compatible, but some instances of rapid teleportation may make client-server communication difficult. This is a Mojang bug, see MC-197855. A workaround was added to the map, reducing teleportation frequency per player via a setting, allowing you to sacrifice smoothness for stability on a per-player basis.

Donating

Consider donating on patreon, I worked really hard on getting this map right and hope you don't take that for granted.
