Man, It just feels literally sad, but I hope you'll get some motivation and it's okay that there's no updates, I hope that you will have a good rest and enjoy the upcoming holidays, take your time.

Yeah I know that feeling. Honestly I'm pretty surprised you've uncovered as much as you have already.

What's the odds of you publishing your work so far on github or something? Would definitely like to see your work preserved somewhere and I'm certainly still interested in playing around with your tools even if they lack a bit of polish.

About prototypes in the playtest menu, what can you say about them, is there a code to restore them or is it also broken?

Uhm... Hello there? Only for the first time in a long time I decided to join the discussion about Rayman stuffs in RPC forum. Just dunno what about I can post here.

So, here is my opinion about this mod for Raving Rabbids. It's a great idea! Alike... Finally fans can play a gameplay segments of Rayman Raving Rabbids prototype, which was been added to Rayman Control Panel. I also saw then Ubisoft create some minigames by resourses from cancelled prototype (alike water from "Bunnies Don't Give Gifts", where Rayman can swim) but most maps player can fall through textures.

Some mechanics of gameplay I find only after some moments, and my favourite from theme is a wall climb walls by a hook and sprint, which reminds me a bunnyhop from shooters with deathmatch alike Quake series.

Maybe I will discuss about this mod project to say a more words, but for this moment as a RayFan from Russia I just give to Droolie a Good Luck with this mod and another projects with stuffs from Rayman Fans Community.

Fyi, "Bunnies Rarely Leave Their Burrows" has extensive invisible level collision outside the "minigame area" which doesn't always line up with the observable level geometry. We're talking about additional ground, slopes and at least two climbable ledges with vistas on top of them. Anyone with the capabilities to open up complete level geometries should absolutely take a look at it, cuz I'm really starting to get Angel of Darkness vibes here. I recall the fans of that game making similar discoveries not too long ago and I mean literally: people finding invisible collisions outside the playable area while not really knowing it's purpose or actual origin regarding the game's context.

Also a former gameplay programmer of the prototype had showed up in the "Prototype Restoration" video's comment section and he's open to questions.
I was thinking of asking him a couple things myself, but neither of my ideas seemed factual enough, so I passed up the opportunity.
I suppose we could ask him if any actual levels were ever made for this project or was it always just a bunch of test environments that never really had the chance to get fully fleshed out.

He's called Matthieu Pierrot. You can find him between the replies of the "Who's the mad man in Ubisoft that suggested to cancel this masterpiece? I want to have a talk with him" comment.

That looks great (it is kind of weird to hear hoodlum sounds in this context, though). I would love to see someone trying to incorporate André and/or his girlfriend in the gameplay.

I think this is the right topic for Phoenix's Rayman 4 (and incidentally, someone posted the video there shortly after you).

Anyway is Jade videogame engine even modable,downloable,installable,tutorialable too as well or rather not? I’ve done a research of from online I wouldn’t say leaks more like trivias. How to make a replica of Phoenix Interactive Rayman 4 Tech demo non-playable gameplay footage?

It is possible to mod some Jade games but modding is very limited iirc

I guess it must've be very complicated process. There are no YouTube videos online about it. It must be related to UbiSoft preventing for instance,as an example DMCA,NDA,copyrights infringement violations. I think Unreal Engine 1(not exactly like no video tutorials),2,3,4 & 5 got more tutorials Id Tech 1,2,3,4(got some video tutorials).

Here: a brand new mini discovery video of kiosk version of E3 Rayman 4 by me, anyway don't accept the high quality video because I'm not professional at creating videos and not OBS master. XD

A new information from Matthieu Pierrot, according to what he said, there're supposed to be dark creatures mounts boss fights even before mounting and riding dark creatures.
