Rayman Pirate-Community

deton24, I think you might have the wrong files somehow? I downloaded the 3.1 rip from the link in your useful TT soundtrack rips index post earlier and looked at the files with Spek. I did not see any noise like what you showed in this gif though, and I think if that was there we would definitely h...

Since it wasn't posted anywhere, allow me to share this cursed official image made for Rayman 2, featured in an Edge magazine as part of the "Rayman in abstract art" lineup. (There is some other, nicer looking previously unseen artwork in there too, so be sure to check it out.) https://i.imgur.com/n...

Hi, I can't comment on the texture pack itself, but I wanted to say ICUP is very much correct. The Dreamcast textures are lower quality than the PC textures. The 3DS version actually has pretty high texture quality. Try to compare the Dreamcast release with the PC release on Raymap: https://raym.app...

Hi MystischerRochen! Thanks a lot for your kind words, and for reporting these. I went over the typos but I don't think I will be fixing any... it's a lot of work to reupload the soundtracks and adjust the metadata on the site just for a few typos, and all of these names are actually (more or less) ...

Hi deton24 :) I just checked my old email since you wrote about it here yesterday (yes, I still read this forum and also got notified about this whole deal on XeNTaX) and saw this thing about CTPAX-X. I'm not too happy about them asking you to "donate" in return for their work. The fact that they di...

Also, I forgot to mention Got4n found Miss Black Bunny's portrait in the files, though the palette was missing. This was also around the time the story was discovered, so half a year ago. You can still vaguely see her face though: https://i.imgur.com/y2aUkZd.png Looks like she was supposed to be a f...

Those interested can follow Raymap's progress here. It's already released since a month or two ago and it's very easy to use. I recommend checking it out, it's the culmination of the UnLockRay project so far and you can discover a lot of new Rayman things in it. https://www.reddit.com/r/Rayman/comme...

I'll just leave this here in the hope it'll get archived somewhere on the internet at least. We discovered this half a year ago but no one shared it. Scrapped Rayman Raving Rabbids DS story ([ANNOTATIONS] added by me, source: the RRR DS rom. It's not difficult to check, just open the rom in a hex ed...

Oh neat, they're patching things for the N. Sane Trilogy: https://www.resetera.com/threads/crash-n-sane-multiplatform-switch-one-cart-no-dl-pc-60fps-fixes-improvements-on-all-platforms.48673/ Hopefully the hitbox problem is solved (or at least partly). Despite Crash 2 being less precision-focused it...

Hmmm. I'm a bit disappointed that I was looking forward to this E3. EA was EA. Microsoft was great, had many announcements, but not much that really grabbed me. Bethesda was logo announcements. Square Enix was too short and I have no idea why they hyped it up so much. Babylon's Fall could be interes...

Microsoft was a great show, but almost everything that looked good is still also on other platforms. I also completely lost interest in Cyberpunk 2077 due to how generic it looked, but I'm excited to get Tales of Vesperia (though I would have preferred any other Tales, since ToV is one of the only o...

Was it known that the butterflies in Rayman 2 were already called Popolopoï ? "popolopoi" is the internal object family name for all butterflies.

Trying to get into ripping? Nice! :) I remember that the main BF file had a .DSC file that came along with it and stored the offsets and sizes of all files in the BF file, but I don't remember if the music BF came with one or not. If it has one, you should first extract the individual files or you'l...

Interesting, though it's too bad you can't access the first tower afterwards. DId you ever release this level editor? I don't remember if you did or not. I posted a release in the UnLockRay thread: https://raymanpc.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=1274936#p1274936 I only started working on it last month s...

Stuff like this is really easy to check in my level viewer/editor.

This is on PC, but the ghost tower is just accessible by using the portal anyway so there's no point in moonjumping there.

Awesome! It seems to work really well already! Will you eventually put the source online too?

There's no point in checking RRR for unused stuff anymore. I recently made a level viewer for the Xbox 360 version of RRR (check the UnlockRay thread) and besides sound, everything unused is just gone. For the Wii and PC versions, I made a new BF extraction script that also extracts folder names (by...

Very cool! And thank you so much for putting the code and documentation online! I haven't had the time to look at it yet, but I do have a quick question to see if I understood correctly: The music files provided with Rayman 2 were encoded with standard IMA ADPCM and the old Ray2Get used standard IMA...

My favourite is Scrapped Nymph . Such a great name, and she looks kinda nice. Seriously though, out of all of these I'd choose Voodoo Mamma/Fée de la Mort. Mostly because of my own headcanons (though very logical and researched headcanons) and the story that I have created for her for Dreambound (sh...

2D images in the background are a common technique games (especially older ones) use to create the illusion of crowds. It's easier to render a few hundred planes with a single texture than a single 3D model, and if they're in the background people will notice less. The final version of RRR also does...
