Rayman Pirate-Community

Currently I did a bit more tweaking with the page... Nothing new but there needed to be clarification that we pretty much don't know anything about the short and what little is there just tells us "Ubi Soft put this on their reels for the press, and then did literally nothing with it for the next ...

Christ, I wasn't expecting to come back like this. Yeah, so last week as I was verifying my TCRF citations I noticed that the website was still online and made a small mention to my buds. Suddenly this morning the website stopped working and that was when I knew something was up. I looked up the ...

It was a normal day until I was googling for French media and found that as of this hour and minute, Rayman 3 is now 20 years old.....
When I bought the game for the first time, it was only a 6 year old game... I feel old!!!!

This is a tricky question, because to this day Saturn development, homebrew or not is...

Well, it isn't exactly in a highly advanced stage yet. People ARE gradually getting there, though, with entire SDKs and everything.

As ...

I have Rayman 2 on the PS1, I've never heard about this before! :o
How do you find it, do you put it in a computer or something?


On the PS1 disc, there's a folder named "VIDEO" and it contains a lone file named "15FPS.STR". This file, dated from 1996 is a leftover cutscene of as-of-yet unknown ...

Ah. I was wondering why the BG&EMyth channel had posted it indeed!


Guess what, this video was hiding in one of the BG&E prototypes archived by Project Deluge one year ago.
I have downloaded these prototypes as soon they were released, I can't believe that I had the video on my hard drive for ...

Whoooooooooa, now that's something I wasn't able to find. Nice!

Judging from the way Rayman moves and the logo just being "RAYMAN", I think this might be a part of Rayman's Training, since the original Rayman was a lot more elaborate than that. If that was found in some random French videogame ...

Oh yeah, that definitely is one of the Rayman's Training scenes! I find it interesting that they drafted the scene as a concept art piece, and then subsequently turned it into the cutscene-later-short. I don't want to ...

The Livingstones from Rayman 1. They just... do nothing except pace around until you scare the hell out of them or punch them. They pose a threat at first, until you realise they really don't do anything. That's what I like about Origins: they actually give them something to do.

As far as I know, there aren't *really* any examples of the Rayman 1 renders and illustrations that are high quality online: there's scans of Rayman ephemera at that time, there's pre-release photos of Rayman in high quality, but curiously none of the credits paintings in high quality or of the ...

<r>Recently, YouTube user <I><s>[i]</s>Arnold Franklin<e>[/i]</e></I> has pointed out something interesting: while the concept art and renders of the Hunter has marks on its chest, the actual animation of the Hunter has these two rings on its shoulders.<br/>
<br/>
As far as I know, the animated ...

Hang on, if it wasn't a short film, why have that imagery of Rayman transforming from 2D to 3D?

From the recently-released news report on Rayman 2 2D, it appears that clip was actually supposed to go along with the scene of a virtual Rayman gliding across the sky with a logo, while Rayman is ...

Unless I'm mistaken, stuff like the dinosaur footage is not part of Rayman's Training, but just like it, it was apparently made during the early development of Rayman 2, right?

...Okay, I've been sitting on this gut feeling for a while, but I feel like Rayman's Training isn't actually a short ...

Just found this on youtube.

Holy shit, what a find. Not only is there more extended footage of Rayman in the portal, but there's even more footage of the Guards and the robot dinosaur. Considering they don't have much in animation, this is HUGE. I can't believe that bit by bit ...

It's odd that the video didn't appear in any known consumer materials for Rayman 2.


What makes me more weirded out is that judging from the responses here, the Rayman fandom didn't even know it existed .
Let me repeat that. The Rayman community, a fandom known by many for having large projects ...

Created a video on the short film, and what footage does exist...

No, that is definitely the old Rayman 2. The video was was included with the Rayman 2 2D prototype files on the PS1 disc, and its environment matches one of the R2 concept art pieces exactly.
I would guess Rayman's Training was a way for Ubisoft artists to test how Rayman and his world would look ...

You know, I just had a small realization: There's many things in Rayman 2's development that was explained, even including the weird Baby Globox unused icon.
But there's one thing that's yet to have been fully researched: This unused FMV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_hU19ivDXM
Could it be that ...

Wrote a page on it on the RayWiki, it's a little quick and dirty and the formatting ain't the greatest but it exists
