Question 15: Apart from the Hall of Doors, where is the last spiral door encountered in the PC version of Rayman 2?

Do you count those at the beginnings of levels (that take you back to the Hall of Doors? If so, then it's the one at the start of The Prison Ship.

Otherwise, there is one that the Teensie opens for you at the end of Tomb of The Ancients.

On repeat playthroughs, The entire last section of The Iron Mountains (the Pirate Mines) is replaced with an Spiral Door.
 
I meant the one at the start of the Prison Ship indeed!

Bonus Question 1: In Rayman M, which Race tracks use the same music theme in Popolopoï and On and On mode, as the Battle level Gemstone Temple?

Question 16: Can you give one location in Rayman 1 where the level design was completely altered on Jaguar to compensate for the lack of sliding, and another where it was not altered but probably should have been?
 
I'm going to guess here, because I've never played the Jaguar version. So I can be completely wrong. :)

Changed: Candy Chateau cake sliding section?
Not change: Allegro Presto sliding sections?
 
That'll do! Candy Château was completely different, while Allegro Presto used the same level layouts but with lots of extra platforms and enemies to provide a different (more tedious?) kind of challenge…

Since we now have a contestant at nine points, I'm gonna bring this Bonus Question to the front again

Bonus Question 1: In Rayman M, which Race tracks use the same music theme in Popolopoï and On and On mode, as the Battle level Gemstone Temple?

By way of a hint, here's the Gemstone Temple music:


UPDATE over a month later: Well, I guess Rayman M generally isn't played for its music… For the record, the answer was First Ruins and Nebulous Tower:


So, new bonus question:
Bonus Question 1a: Why is it possible to get all cages on the first visit to Twilight Gulch in certain regional console versions of Rayman 1, but not others?

I suppose it has to do with the flying ring being offset ever so slightly, so that it can be reached with a fully sped-up fist, without running?
 
Yes, there was a slight offset in the placement of a Ring leading to one cage being obtainable without running in certain versions!

Question 17: (dr_st can't answer) Can you identify an occasion in the series when Rayman uses his helicopter hair for something other than gliding or flying through the air?
 
I'll accept that! I would also have taken swimming at the end of the Land of the Livid Dead in Rayman 3.

Question 18: What incongruity can be noticed about Clark's first appearance, in the Menhir Hills?
 
He has the mark of the control box in his back at that game point, when actually should have that when he is defeated and rescued in The Tomb of the Ancients.

Question 19: Can you describe an unused attack animation that exists in Moskito's sprites in the PC version of Rayman 1?
 
Right again! But now you can't answer the next question…

Question 20: (Marx-Y can't answer) Which level segment in Rayman 1 has the exit sign appear in the same place where Rayman enters it?
 
The very one!

Question 21: Where are the first and last Red Lum chains in the PC version of Rayman 2?
 
I'll guess off the top of my head:

First: in the Fairy Glade (I don't remember exactly which part it is), where the pirate is throwing kegs and you go to a semi-secret side area to get a cage, before dropping down the hole. There is another chain of lums underground (on the floating crates). If you miss the semi-secret area, this would be the first chain.

Last: in the Prison Ship last section (flying shell), in the room with the laser; it leads to a (pretty pointless in this version!) detour.
 
That's not quite the last one, but really close… You can reanswer if nobody else comes in in less than twelve hours!
 
I think I know where it is, but only thanks to dr_st's answer, so there's no way I'm stealing his victory. :lol:
 
Well, that's embarrassing! :oops:

I was sure I had the last one down, it was the first one I had doubts about.

I can only conclude that there must be another chain of red lums along that "pretty useless" detour, before it loops you back into the room with the laser. Because there surely aren't any after that.

Since I almost never actually take the detour, I didn't think of it! :oops2:

P.S. Hunch, thank you for the gesture. :)
