I developped a new Rayman 1 patch. Similar to Rayman Optimum, but with its own interface and a long dreamed feature. You'll need to supply your own legitimate copy of Rayman, be it either the original Rayman 1 CDs or GOG's release/UbiSofts Rayman Collection bundle. The main supported games are Rayman 1, Rayman Designer, Rayman by his Fans and Rayman 60 Levels, I hope I'll be able to make the educational games being supported too in the future.
The main new feature of this software is the Per Level Soundtrack module (or TPLS how I call it) for Rayman 1. This little module replaces the entire soundtrack with the PS1 version's soundtrack order and adds few more wanted features.
It was developped under Windows 10, so I cannot guarantee if it will keep it's compatibility with previous Windows builds. (Tested on Windows 7 64bit, no major issues found there)
The way it works is as follows: Once downloaded and executed, you'll have to install it. Make sure to provide one or more of the previously mentioned main games. If you weren't able to provide all of the games, you'll still be able to install one game afterwards. The game that wasn't installed will stay greyed out.
Once you're in main menu, you can change between two tabs: The main games list tab and the configuration tab.
At the main games list tab, you can either install the missing game or launch the games you have already installed.
Download here! v1.1
- If you're having issues dedicating TPLS go to the Advanced Options window and try moving your pointer interval to a higher value or a lower value, the art here is to keep the interval to a minimum to improve performance whilst maintaining functionality. (fixed in v1.1)
- Is the game lagging enter your GPUs settings and turn on adaptive vsync. In advanced options have the VSync mode to "Host" checked and make sure the VSync rate matches your monitor's refresh rate.
