Wattt… I thought they’d already shut down… :shock:

So what can you anyway still play on them?

I completely lost track of the servers in Rayman Legends, Ubisoft planned to shut down old gen server but they ended up not doing it for some reason, maybe they encountered some issues

Yeha probably XD but why wouldn’t they shut them down if it was sapping their money?

Probably because they realized there would be more admin work involved in ensuring a smooth shutdown than just letting them as they were. I imagine there's some kind of dependency hell where the services that ostensibly just support Rayman Legends are actually relied upon by a load of other components used for newer games. That's just a guess though…

(question: shut down server or shut down servicing of server (or decommissioning))

Probably shutting down the servicing of the server, making the game display an error when you try to play online challenges, making them unplayable.

If they do shut down, there will definitely being a lot of mods bringing them back

What makes you so sure? There's nothing to bring them back on PC :mefiant: (Except that the training room mod is a thing, but I didn't even find out about that for ages)

Why can’t you just use the normal changing room? Or does that only work on switch or smth

Not too long ago I found some unused assets in the Wii U demos for Rayman Legends, for an unused enemy "diablotin" and for the old in-game currency/collectible "rubis". (I forgot if I posted about these here before when I found the images)
Yesterday I implemented a new animation format into ubi-canvas which allowed me to view the animations for them.

Rubis: https://streamable.com/461ztc
Diablotin: https://streamable.com/gh00vh

That reminded me: I remember seeing some early possible promotional images about legends?

Hey guys, I wanted to know if these images were of any value or if anyone knows where they’re from? Thanks

I just remembered I found more info about early Rayman Legends a few months ago. Namely, old world names.
This game plays a unique sound effect when you go near a "special" painting in the hub. These "special" paintings include worlds, musical levels, gallery of heroes, and so on. What's interesting is that these sound effects have always contained the actual names (at the time) for those levels. For example, when we view the final list of sound effects, we can see near-final world names:
paintings_final.png
  • Teensies in Trouble - musical: Castle Rock
  • Toad Story - musical: Orchestral Chaos
  • Fiesta de los Muertos - musical: Ojo del Tigre (Eye of the Tiger - this was renamed Mariachi Madness)
  • 600 Feet Under (was renamed 20,000 Lums Under The Sea) - musical: Gloo Gloo
  • Olympus Maximus - musical: Dragon Slayer
  • Living Dead Party
  • Retro (was named Back to Origins)
  • Collection of Heroes (was named Gallery of Heroes)
  • Kung Foot
  • Pet Room
But wait till you see what I found in one of he Wii U demos:
paintings_demo.png
  • Teensies in Trouble
  • Toad Story
  • 600 Feet Under
  • Olympus Globus: The original name of the "heaven" part of Olympus Maximus.
  • Swarmed and Dangerous: The "hell" part of Olympus Maximus was originally named this. We have the logo text for it too - it's shown on the Olympus Maximus RayWiki page
  • Drak's Nightmare: That's right - this was very likely the name for the Dracula world! The audio files are all very short so sadly not very interesting, but this one contains some spooky laughter, confirming that it was meant for a spooky world.
  • Crouching Huns: The scrapped Huns world. I'm glad someone added this to RayWiki between the time I discovered it and I remembered to post about it on RPC! :mrgreen:
  • Orchestral Chaos: Seems like it was the only musical challenge in the game at that point, or perhaps it was a world name for a musical world?
  • Kung Foot
Anyway, that's all. Drak's Nightmare is probably the most interesting one - just wanted to post about it here now that I remembered, so this info not lost and forgotten on a Discord server. :)

Never saw this before, but looking up "Binscape" I found this and the UI seems to match: https://bin-weevils.fandom.com/wiki/Binscape
It seems to be some old promotional minigame in an online Flash game or something: https://binweevilcompany.wordpress.com/ ... t-answers/

Since you quoted the part about rubis I guess you're talking about how they appeared in 2 old trailers? I posted about this just last page :)
