Rayman 3 map

Post by raymancool_bis »

Yo potatoes! :noel:

On RayWiki I read that:
One official Rayman 3 website contained an interactive map showing the geographical relationship between the game's levels, but this map has since been lost.
And there is a thumbnail:

So I checked all saved data for rayman3.com: https://web.archive.org/web/*/http://www.rayman3.com/*

But I didn't find the map. :( Only this: https://web.archive.org/web/20030228111 ... worlds.php

Anybody got ideas how to find that map? :hap:

We've been going through this over and over in the Rare Images thread, nothing has come up barring that thumbnail, the only place where it was known to be located, was the European Rayman 3 website.

the best thing to do is blow up the thumbnail and clarify it.
edit: clarify's the wrong word I mean filter it or something can't think of the proper word. :?

I don't think it'd do much either ways, from what I can remember, that's the home page of the site, and not the part with the map.

The thumbnail doesn't really look like the map, though I can't say I remember much of it. And you can't increase the resolution of an image so there's nothing to do anyway.
I think the map might have been in Flash, which makes it even more complicated to recover it. :?

Unless someone was infiltrating in Ubisoft's databases and get all the Rayman input for us. :P

Unfortunately, the only memory I have of the european site is the loading screen done in flash, that had kind of a chainsaw sound with a hoodlum cloth.

The website I used to visit more was the north american one, that is almost entirely intact in the WayBack Machine.

Holy shite, Rayman3.com is one gorgeous work of art. Those were the best kinds of early-2000s websites.

I wonder why Rayman Legends didn't have it's own site

Hm, Iooking at all these take me back, sadly, the iteration of the site we need is the EU version, not the US one.

It'd be great if we could re-access all the stuff from the old RZ. It'd be awesome to see all the bonus stuff from there, wallpapers etc. It'd be nice to see the original ranks list again.

I don't remember any interesting content from there, the Rayman 3 website had a lot more cool stuff.

Both Raymanworld and RaymanZone had lots of cool stuff. I believe I archived the ranks from it used back in 2003.

Ahh, Raymanworld, a site I never got to see before the Internet Archive, as by the time I had gotten internet, RaymanZone had replaced it. I remember seeing the web address for Raymanworld on my old Rayman 2 PS1 case.

I thought the predecessor of RaymanZone was HoodlumsWorld. :?
