Nice!!
Btw, I had the chance to talk with a developper that worked on Phoenix Rayman 4, Rayman Raving Rabbids cancelled prototype AND RRR final!
Here what I gathered (this is for RRR final and prototype):
-The prototype was an open world adventure game
-It was cancelled because "it didn't convinced"
-It had worlds, dungeons
-Globox was supposed to be back
-Teensies as well, lums
-Plums were supposed to be back too
-The ambient was slightly mature, there were guns, grenades
-Rayman used his hand as a hook
-Each costume had a special ability
-With the bat, spider riding system, there was a flying scooter
-A lot of gameplay prototype elements were recycled into minigames (Bunnies don't know what to do with cow is an example, he told me it was from a gameplay in the prototype when Rayman had to turn around himself, throw a box, so it lands on an electric generator)
-A lot of the riding minigames codes were based on King Kong code
-There is an "ORC" in the top scores of each minigame of RRR, "ORC" was in fact a level designer for the proto, and he worked on KK, but then he got downgraded to playtesting, so he did crazy scores
-Minigames were poorly designed because the head office gave them designers that were sold as experts, but in fact they had just finished their degree

These are all things that could be mentioned in the wiki page. Thanks for these informations!

In any case, congrats on getting the levels imported into 3ds Max szymski! That's a huge achievement. Now for the objects?

Right, he just confirmed me it was "cartoon" guns

Surprise !
Le Monde des Pirates

Surprise !
Le Monde des Pirates

Using Google Translate it seems to mean "The World of Pirates". I'm not sure why it's there really, or if its maybe a part of the French and Spanish translations which I don't know about.

Haven't I posted this before? Then my bad
We already knew this oddity but we thought it wasn't important enough sorry
There was also at some point in developpement a morbide_tst map (likely for morbide_test which means a test map of Tomb of Ancients) in N64 ROM, but it's not there anymore

Yeah, I saw the morbide_tst one in the PC demo files. I assumed it might have been the secret area before the Technical Check-Up which they later integrated with the last part of The Tomb of the Ancients.
Btw, regarding test levels, while looking through the GameCube version of Rayman 3 I saw a fully intact test level in the files which is not in the PC version. Is there any way of loading this level? I tried loading it into the PC version, but the GC level files seem to be compressed as they're about half the size of the PC ones.

By all that is holy (mostly plums)!
He STILL has that supposed original conceptual demo thing for the originally showcased R4?
That stuff MUST get leaked somehow! I NEED IT IN MY LIFE!
