If anyone's curious, I was writing a PS1 level format documentation: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ac0 ... pSeL5CuvGc

It can be nice if you'll be able to add the Rayman 2 Boss on PS1 and the Rayman Revolution Levels and bosses (from PS2) that we will be able to play to full game in PC.
I want to add the levels and bosses from Rayman 2 (On PS1) and From Revolution version, to the PC version for making a Complete game Which includes all changes from all remastered versions that Ubisoft created.

Porting over level geometry would be straightforward if it didn't require generating new relocation tables (essentially impossible), but bosses are another story altogether, since they have custom animations and programming which tie together with level logic; Revolution doesn't even run on the same engine as the original game. It doesn't matter the game though, that's asking too much. :P

It does, but the rendering engine is different (RenderWare).

That's cool! That would allow to make custom Rayman PSX games, or porting Rayman to new platforms (like HTML5) using the original level files.

Is it possible to add custom models into the game usin the RayTwol program?

There are some models in Rayman M (Rayman Arena, Rayman Rush), which would be great to include in the game.

The models in Rayman 2 look dated.

Well yeah, though even if you had to re-create the levels from scratch, that'd save pretty much no time compared to how long it'd take to re-program the rest of the game. :P

No. I've said quite a few times now that importing geometry is pretty much out of the question, since the pointers for each mesh and its structure are stored statically and all over the place. All you can realistically do is modify the positions of already-existing vertices, which is something that could be used to create kind-of custom levels, which is something I'm working on every now and then.

IMPORTING MODELS IS A TOTAL NO-GO!

Ok.

May be someone has already checked this, but I guess it should be possible to access the area of Globox village from the first level using this tool.

If that doesn´t work, then may be it could be possible to re-create Globox village using the tool (if those meshs are in the game)?

Globox Village didn't exist until the Dreamcast version.

Has someone created any modded levels using this tool?

It would be fun to play some levels that are really hard but playable. The ones that are in the game are a bit a too easy.

Many of the abilities introduced in the game are mostly only used in one level, which is a shame.

Bump.

I decided to do a little messing in the Hall of Doors. I tried moving the entity YAM_Cam_Oriente_Ly10, which apparently governs the way the camera points while standing at the Walk of Life spiral door. If I move it a short distance it seems to have no effect, but if I move it further the game seems to abort trying to use it, and instead the camera faces the waterfall, just like it does while standing at the Bayou (this happens even if I load a save file where Rayman is already standing at the Walk of Power).
The most interesting part is that, when this happens, I need to press Left to get back to the Bayou; usually one needs to press Down. So the controls for moving between the spiral doors actually are relative to the camera, while I would've expected them to be hard-coded.

I wasn't aware of this, and I don't have a copy of Raytwol myself anymore. I don't think there's an easy way to contact Adsolution at this stage either. :|

Thanks! I guess I should add it as a mirror in the first post for now, so others that might want the link will be able to find it easier.

I was going to say use the mirror I put below, but since the original download link is likely gone forever (including the domain by the looks of it), I'll just put RayCarrot's link as the main one for now.
