Ah, well then nevermind :(
On an unrelated note, the Toy Story 2 fix that you made Ribshark, is really good. Do you have any plans on fixing the final boss? Just curious. It may be too much of a hassle to be worth it.

Welcome to PC by the way, mrpenguinb! :D
Thanks!
Better Rayman 3 really impressed me with how much it fixes, it is really cool seeing such support for Rayman 3.
I had been meaning to actually say thanks a long time ago (to everyone as well who helped), you can see the join date is when I wanted to xD

A few minutes into gameplay, the 'fire' button stopped working but the rest seem to work just fine. Is this a known issue with a fix? I tried restarting the game and I tested the controller (it works fine).

After installing BR3 with Polish CD version of R3, I receive an error: Image.
There are also three buttons : ignore, retry and cancel, don't do anything.
Without BR3 the games runs just fine on my win 7.
Same error on win 10.
I know this is 2 years too late, but for ppl how looking help in this problem.
This problem only appears in polish version Rayman 3. To solve it you need:
- Rayman 3 PL version
- Rayman 3 GOG version
- Better Rayman 3

How to fix step by step:
1. Install Rayman 3 PL version
2. Install Rayman 3 GOG version in another location
3. Remove "Gamedatabin" from Rayman 3 GOG version
4. Move "Gamedatabin" from Rayman 3 PL version to Rayman 3 GOG version
5. Uninstall Rayman 3 PL version (it's useless now)
6. Install "Better Rayman 3" in Rayman 3 GOG version installation folder
7. Go to Rayman 3 GOG version installation folder run "R3_Setup_DX8.exe" and setup video settings for Rayman 3
8. Congratulations, now you can play Rayman 3 in better polish dubbing version :)

Sorry for digging old question, but I had the same issue 1 hour ago and I think, it will be nice to palce solution somewhere in the internet.

Dzięki stary. Wychodzi na to, że milion lat nie grałem w polską wersję, albo wersja Ubi nie była podatna na ten bug po zaaplikowaniu spolszczenia.

(I wonder if If the same problem exists after installing Polish language pack on Ubi version, personally I don't remind myself having it).

Hello! I need your help, I installed Rayman 3 from the CDs, I installed the "Better Rayman 3" mod, but when I start the game I get this error in a picture I don't know what to do to run the game with this mod. When I uninstalled this mod, everything was fine. Any ideas?

Pity TnL causes segfaults on Linux, but then it was always dodgy even on Windows until this mod came along…

Yeah I'm not sure why it's causing the segfault on Linux, but the game seems to work pretty well without it. I even heard of people having issues on Intel GPUs unless they used d3d8to9, which we use on Linux also.

@RibShark I found some further bugs in Rayman 3.
Though these are neither related nor caused by BR3 I really hope you can implement fixes into your project.
Hope you don't mind me posting the issues here.

- In the main menu, the floating text on the top right is shaking when playing on an Ultra Widescreen resolution.
- When playing on a lower resolution than the resolution of the main menu texture (for example playing R3 with 1920x1080 while having a 2048x2048 menu texture), the background of the menu and the background of the floating text turn black (as seen here: viewtopic.php?p=1423740#p1423740)

Do you think there's anything BR3 could do about it?

Thanks for your awesome mod - this makes playing Rayman 3 even more enjoyable!

As for installing it, this is pretty long, but it might help someone if they actually want to run the game on Linux. I hope I didn't miss anything.

Well basically, I used Lutris, but that's optional and it can be done with just wine. Lutris really simplifies the process though.

So I'm using the GoG version of the game, and this is basically what I done to get Better Rayman 3 working properly:


1. Download and Install Wine for your distro. Lutris comes with Wine, but it's better to have it installed. It also makes some steps easier.


2. Download and install Lutris for your distro.


3. Use Lutris to install whichever version of Rayman 3 you own, by searching for the install script here. I installed GoG from there and used that to install Rayman 3.


4A. Open Lutris and click the plus in the upper left, then press add game.

4B. In the "Game info" tab, put the "Name" as "Rayman 3", then set the runner to "Wine (Runs Windows Games)".

4C. In the "Game options" ta.... and so on and on.. see the original post
Eh, yah. Or you just use the install script I had submitted to Lutris months ago.

Oh cool, nice work! I mainly remember having issues trying to get it working over a year ago, but TnL being the problem in the end. That, and the fact it would have some weird glitches without dgVoodoo.

Xbox One Wireless here:
I can't move the camera at all in look mode (first person) - not with the left stick nor with the right stick, even d-pad doesn't work and there aren't any bind options in the menus for that. Some guy on the GOG forum said it works for him but that's all, I haven't found a fix anywhere.


I just mapped the look mode to LB and so it happens to also be lean left in said mode, that's why it didn't work.

When I run the game at 1440p (using Better Rayman 3), I get black bars at the top and bottom when in-game. Loading screens and menus are full screen. The score bar also appears above the top black bar.

Pressing the 'Print Screen' key makes the screen zoom in slightly, while cutting off the sides. Pressing this repeatedly gets the bars to disappear, but this resets after each cutscene.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

The only reference I can find for this issue online is a Youtube comment from 2 years ago, which is where I got the 'Print Screen' tip from.

If you're running the game at a high refresh rate, this tends to happen. it's better to just set your refresh rate to 60Hz before running the game.
