TTQ - Season 146 - RayGamer99

[Greengoop]

Are we talking about in the game or in its marketing?

[dr_st]

I was thinking about the game. However, as I didn't specifically limit it in the question - feel free to suggest answers from any aspect, as long as you have evidence.

[DaveRattlehead]

I think it was the .exe file (let's say it's raymanm.exe and not raymanarena.exe) and one of the videos files (not sure if it was the intro or a loading screen, but Rayman M is mentioned there).

I think it was the .exe file (let's say it's raymanm.exe and not raymanarena.exe) and one of the videos files (not sure if it was the intro or a loading screen, but Rayman M is mentioned there).

The program is named R_Arena.exe and I couldn't find any mention of Rayman M in any of the videos...
This is turning our more difficult than I thought.

Question 30: The North-American PC version of Rayman M did a good job converting the branding to Rayman Arena everywhere, but there are two spots where the observant player can still find references to the original name. Where?
RayGamer99 got 2 points in a row and should skip this question.

[DaveRattlehead]

So sounding truly convinced wasn't enough right?

[dr_st]

So sounding truly convinced wasn't enough right?

Apparently not!

I'll give a hint and you can reanswer: the two things I have in mind are clearly in the realm of text, not imagery/sound.

[dr_st]

OK, it's been quite a while, so I'll remove the restriction from RayGamer99. Anyone can answer.

Question 30: The North-American PC version of Rayman M did a good job converting the branding to Rayman Arena everywhere, but there are two spots where the observant player can still find references to the original name. Where?

Hints:

1. The two things I have in mind are in the realm of text
2. One of DaveRattlehead's answers was in the correct direction, although not quite what he suggested.
3. For the other one - think of question 21.

[Greengoop]

So the file name/s and a cheat code referring to it as Rayman M?

[dr_st]

So the file name/s and a cheat code referring to it as Rayman M?

Maybe... Could you be a little more specific?

[RayGamer99]

I think the cheat code that let you unlock all of the characters used the Rayman M name (I don’t remember the code’s exact name). As for the other one, I have no idea. Maybe a file name for the game’s icon or something like that?

[The Jonster]

Well in the opening sequence while the logo has been replaced you can still see the words “Multiplayer” underneath it. Does that count?

[dr_st]

(I don’t remember the code’s exact name)

Too bad!

Maybe a file name for the game’s icon or something like that?

An icon. Interesting idea, but wrong as far as I know.

No!

[dr_st]

Look. I hate bumping my own quiz, but I just realized a couple of things:
1. This thread had no activity for over 2 weeks
2. The question has not been answered in over 4 weeks
3. Record day is coming up
4. Folks will probably want to post a lot during record day, including in this thread
5. Most likely I will be away and miss most of record day

So we really need to wrap this up.
I will give 24 hours for anyone to try to give me the answer - 1 file name and 1 cheat code in Rayman Arena that refers to Rayman M.
Otherwise - I will give the point to myself ( ) and ask the next question.

[The Jonster]

Too bad I don't actually know this answer.

[DaveRattlehead]

Okay so if it isn't the .exe file... Then what about the setup file? Instead of RASetup, it is RMSetup.
It's the only one I can think about, normally the rest of the files are x.dll or y.dat...

I can't remember the name of the cheat code, but since it's universal for both games I guess it's used to unlock all the levels or something like that?

Merging:
Double post to throw a wild guess for the cheat code... I'll merge it once you see it

Is it raymanmlvl?

[Rsandee]

I used to play Rayman Rush back in the day so I can't really join the talk about the M/Arena versions.

[RayGamer99]

I'll guess that the file name is RMSetup, like Dave said. As for the cheat code, I know it unlocks all of the characters, so I'll guess that the code is just RAYMANM?

[dr_st]

OK, phew! Just so that I don't have to announce the question unanswered, I will take Dave's answer. Because it was quite close.
Indeed, RM_Setup_DX8.exe is the setup program.
There is another - the save file - raymanm.sav. Strange that it wasn't on anyone's radar.
As for the cheat code - it unlocks all levels and modes and the code is (surprisingly!) - ALLRAYMANM.

Question 31: The following vignette appears in the intro of Rayman 1 (Atari Jaguar). Where can it be seen in the PC version?

[Greengoop]

As the loading screen to the breakout minigame?

[The Jonster]

Yeah, I’ve never seen this in the PC version. Maybe somebody who knows the answer will respond so I can learn something new!
