Rayman Pirate-Community

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

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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

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

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?

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

Too bad!

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

No!

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.

Too bad I don't actually know this answer.

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?

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

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?

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?

As the loading screen to the breakout minigame?

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