No way, how can it be? The first PC I played Rayman 2 on was a K6-2 with a 3dfx card. Worked great. There must be some stupid block in the beta, and I expect it can be worked around.

As someone, who have tried the beta, I can say what worked and not worked for me!

Non-numpad 1 and 2 worked, as they switched modes between light balls and fists to shoot with!
Non-numpad 5 didn't work for me at all unfortunately.
Same with T, J and Q letters.
Q actually works, but in noclip mode only, which can be activated by pressing B. It makes you move faster in noclip mode and it can be useful!
As I mentioned before, you can enter into noclip mode by pressing B.
Numpad + and - didn't work for me.
Shift changes the way your camera moves in free-cam mode (which can be activated with numpad 1), so instead of moving around, you can change the position of it.
As I mentioned earlier, numpad 1 activates free-cam mode and numpad 2 (which is the only key, that for some reason recenters on Rayman's back), numpad 3, numpad 8 and numpad 9 disables free-cam.
A makes you move up in both noclip and free-cam, and Z - down.
And also D makes you enter into this vector (?) mode.

Arrow keys - move
A          - jump/move up in no-clip and free-cam
Space      - shoot
C          - Disables all other inputs (?)
D          - toggle wireframe mode
B          - toggle no-clip
Z          - move down in no-clip and free-cam
Numpad 1   - enter free-cam mode
Numpad 2   - exit free-cam mode with centered camera
Numpad 6   - exit free-cam mode
Numpad 7   - lock camera
1          - telescopic fist
2          - energy shots
F11        - restart map
F8         - take a snapshot
Shift      - speed up no-clip
Ctrl       - strafe/move backwards under water

The entire EXE is encrypted, and it contains its own decryption code and self-modifies the different sections successively in what feels like a really evil manner… Not sure if that's anything to do with the segfault I'm getting, but I'm sure it doesn't help

Gonna keep trying, haven't watched any of the videos yet
