About that, while scanning the Rayman stickers I found (see Rare Rayman Pictures) I also found my old Rayman 3 magnets. One of the hands is missing though. That's what you get for letting little kids play with them. :(
I don't think I'm the only one who has them, but I still haven't seen them much. Does anyone here have these magnets?
this is one of the magnets you could win 10 years ago in a winning game .. isn't it? :D
I've saw the winning game in a magazine that I have :)...
Yes, I think it was one of the prizes from a winter art contest on RaymanZone. :)
Yeah :)... I have some pictures of the magazine here :D

In picture 7 you can see the winning game :) but I can't see any word about raymanzone.com.. only on picture 10..and I think it is a kind of funny on picture 4 xD... the authors of the magazine swapped razoff's and reflux' "about"-text or they swapped the pictures xD I don't no xD..I do not know what was swapped from the two, but that's also no matter how you see it :D....

:?

I probably wouldn't do this unless I would play the game, but I understand that Haruka is a collector, so who the fuck am I to talk?

She should probably learn how to configure DOSBox properly, so she can play those games off the disc. :)

That is interesting. Acording to the magazine, Rayman 1 had been first developed for PlayStation, then Saturn, then Atari Jaguar and for the last for PC.

What magazine was that? Info is clearly false because the earliest Rayman version seen after cancelled SNES version is Jaguar one. It was released for Jaguar on 8 September 1995 and PS1 version is only released 1 day later so it is clear that they worked on both versions at the same time more or less, but all the proofs indicate it was first started on Jaguar after cancelled SNES version.
EDIT: somewhere it says PS1 version was released on 1st Sep but somewhere it says on 9th Sep so I am not sure, but still the source says:
"The Atari Jaguar version, which was the original version but eventually arrived a week later than the PlayStation one, features some unique/absent areas and absent gameplay mechanics compared to the (themselves largely identical) PC/PlayStation/Sega Saturn CD-ROM editions."

I know that it was original planed for the SNES.. but the first version ist the Atari Jaguar version, isn't it? :O...

and this magazine ^^ http://derpybird.tk/eve/Rayman%203%20Ho ... gazine.rar (I only scanned the pages with Rayman-Informations xD) .... it is a german magazine called MausKlick and this was a special about Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc... the magazine is from 2003 :P

Yeah it is. Magazine probably made a mistake or something.

That's nothing more than a factual error.

I did note that there was a bunch more merch than I was aware of, that and the beta picture of rayman 2, which seems oddly familiar.

@Droolie Awesome magnet! Pity I hadn't any knowledge of that RaymanZone contest in that time.

I'm sorry, but... what? What are you talking about?

When I stated "looking for a copy of For Ever and Collector, it was in terms of collectionism. I collect retail copies. I know how to play the DOS games of Rayman in DOSBox fortunately, or else I wouldn't have done a walkthrough of it.

It runs, but the speed is off, the FMV framerates are low, and the sound is fuzzy (never actually discovered how to fix this; ask emshomar). The game is far from running properly. ;)

I would like to point out that the walkthrough was recorded MUCH before emshomar's public appearance with his Mega Patch.

Yes, but it was possible to configure the game correctly in DOSBox before the Mega Patch. For instance, I was able to configure the game almost correctly (used 486 processor instead of a Pentium, so I got the low framerates for the FMVs) with filters before I had even heard of the Mega Patch.


Also, I'm not nitpicking about your walkthrough, but I didn't think you ever managed to configure DOSBox properly. (You never mentioned it, anyway.)

Ah, I see your point now. I remember trying out different setups at the time and never managing to find for a stable performance. At least that problem seems to be fixed now.

I can upload the config file I used (without autorun, of course).

I remember having Win 98 still on my PC before first patch was made. DOSBox failed me too so I used Win 98 to play but to tell the truth, I mostly played PS1 ver.

Sending the config file alone will not solve the problem of the native speed playback for many people. The problem here lies on the current set of the autodetection of refresh rate of your monitor. Don't you wonder why before the setup there's a message about your graphics and then suddenly it starts flashin around? (oh damn i can't describe it well) At this point many computers fails at this test and laggs somewhere at that point. What I am trying to say is: you need to send your RAYMAN.CFG too, which also contains language and sound data.
