Rayman M-Arena

[Haruka]

I beat every battle mode challenge and nothing happened.

Are you sure?

Even with all Polopopois in every Polopopoi level caught, and all Lums (+5) in every Lums level caught?

[Tengu]

No, only battle mode challaenges. I now assume you have to complete everything.

Were you expecting miracles?

[Tengu]

No. I was only trying to unlock the battle mode bonus round. I completed every lum battle, every item battle, and every capture the fly.

[Haruka]

What happens is that in order to unlock the bonus battles, you really need to beat every challenge. Good luck.

Lemme check. gotta start up my ps2, and plug it into my laptop.

WHAT? You can plug the PS2 into the laptop? How?

It's called a Dazzle. It's basically a usb thingy that you plug into your laptop/pc and plug your game console's red white yellow cables into, download the drivers from the website, install em, then download amcap or virtualdub, pick the sound and video input to come from the dazzle, and then check preview under tools.
Tada, your own console running on your pc.
Here's some videos I captured with it.

I would like to inform that the Dolphin Emulator's most recent version (32 bits) can already play the videos if you turn the XFB on with Real mode. However, it is still in slow-motion. Battles aren't still playable yet, except the first one.

Maybe Tily wasn't a replacment character after all... because it shows a beta model of tily..., maybe they were both scheduled to appear in it?

[Haruka]

I believe that's the first attempt from Ubisoft to make Tily. But after they changed few details to the final version. I like more the final version Tily.

*barfing noises*
that is the ugliest thing I've ever seen, I'm not kidding.
It looks as if they tried to take Ly and make her smaller.

[Haruka]

It seems in the Dolphin Emulator's Google Code website, we can report issues.

I've posted the Rayman Arena issue here: http://code.google.com/p/dolphin-emu/is ... il?id=3766

People can also click in the "star" that appears to also confirm that they are experiencing the same problem.

[CheatCat]

For some reason my save files always become corrupted when I play Rayman M on PC.

[Puruun]

I always had to re-install it because after a while it wouldn't load anymore. D: Anyone else having these problems too?

[CheatCat]

I simply remove my saves. I used to back up them but run into same corruption all the time!

Have I said that I like Polopopoi btw, that is the coolest racing mode and you don't have to worry about cheating AI:s or some other silly stuff. On Polopopoi you can lose instantly and are really exiting. The fighing par of the game is crap, semi-autoaim ftl. Have you tried the bonus battlemode level? The catch-5-things-before-the-AI-does are impossible to win.

[Haruka]

The catch-5-things-before-the-AI-does are impossible to win.

It isn't impossible as many people think. Just have luck in the Lums locations and be fast enough to freeze the CPU player.

[CheatCat]

I have no luck so I guess freezing is the best bet.

[Haruka]

Which version do you play? PC or PS2? The difficulty level depends of the version also.

[CheatCat]

PC, the controls are weird too

[Haruka]

PC, the controls are weird too

I don't agree.

What happens is the following: The battle controls are different in both versions.

In the PC version you have better aiming thanks to the mouse, while in the PS2 the aiming is minor, even with the "lock target".

That's why I think that Spooky Towers in Single-Player Mode is harder in the PS2 than in the PC. Anyway, the best advice is to have luck in the Lums positions.

[CheatCat]

Hehe, it would be nice if you could set the mouse sense higher than the maximum in game.
