Hmmm....
Well like < said, if < ever finds a solution to running R2 on Windows 10, let's talk.
< is going to play some R3 to take <'s mind off the RMTI contest.

< wonders if there was something else wrong with the game other than what ^ posted in R2 thread. < wishes < had <'s Windows 10 laptop so < can test <self, since < never tested any of the games that < got on GOG.

< says you were smart to stay on Windows 7
Microsoft forced everyone to upgrade to this stupid OS that just becomes more and more broken with each update

< is relieved. <'s Rayman 2 and 3 actually were able to run on <'s Windows 8, though < still has to look at THAT. And, of course, < still has to fix those missing textures in R3. (Here < come, Better Rayman 3
)

< is trying to do something to <'s PC version of R2 but isn't succeeding.
Maybe < is not following the instructions correctly.

< got the R3 remapping to work, but < still needs to download better R3 and run it. Also < needs to test this remapper on R1 and R2.
<'s R2 progress is not going well.

< knows there's going to be problems. Rayman 2 came out back when people would have been using Windows 98 as a main OS so < expects problems. Just not as many as Windows 10
< will test Rayman 2 tomorrow and let ^ know what happens but < needs sleep now

Oh about that, < got the tool to remap <'s keys to work. HOORAY!!!!

Though....< is going to need help with Better Rayman 3 eventually...
