I've removed the hassle of split archives: Download the installed Rayman 2 files here, all in one zip file!
Seriously, the world of file management is much clearer once you migrate away from monitored, capped sites.
I'll be updating the front page once I've managed to get everything uploaded to the new service. The new Rayman Arena installed files are next.
I'm also working on a side-project that involves modifying the Rayman 2 CD to replace the current installer with a more updated one, thus making this an even simpler process - you'll actually be able to install the game from the disc on a 64-bit system.
Well, I tried, but I used the original link from mediafire. I'm deleting the files that I got from that site and redownloading Rayman 2 by using your newer link that you've posted recently to see how it goes.
Note:Somehow, the GxSetup program right next to the Rayman2.exe program (Rayman2.exe might've been used for launching the game.) shows an error about glide2x.dll. I don't know why.
EDIT:I've finished downloading the zip file and extracted the folder to C:\Program Files\Ubi Soft and when I tried to start the game, It still came up with the same problem.
The missing DLL error isn't really important, you can ignore it.
Did you download and combine all the archives for the CD, or are you using your own CD? If that error is popping up then I'm not quite sure what to do. Do other games that require the CD to be played work?

Wait a second...Are you talking about the archives of the Rayman Arena CD from mediafire? Or the actual Rayman 2 CD?
I'm kinda confused with the Rayman Arena because it has 2 CDs, and I don't know the difference between the 2 discs for that game.
EDIT:Some games that require a CD work on my computer work, but since I usually have ISO images, I use Daemon Tools to mount them.
I'm talking about the Rayman 2 CD, I uploaded it in split archives as well, though it may have been removed. If the archives are still downloadable, have you combined and mounted them? If not that, do you have a Rayman 2 CD and is it in the drive?
And in order for Rayman Arena to run you need to have the second disc in the drive or mounted.

I don't see the archives for the Rayman 2 CD, only the installed files. The only disc archives that I see are for Rayman Arena.
I would hardly look into getting a genuine copy of the Rayman 2 CD.....unless you still have the archives for the Rayman 2 CD, that may be reuploaded if you like.
I'll rip another ISO off my CD and upload it, though I'll have to finish uploading the Rayman Arena installed files before I can upload Rayman 2's.
Also, in my quest to make this all much simpler, this is my progress on remaking the autorun and installation of Rayman 2 so that it can install off the CD natively in 64-bit:
It was completely remade in Flash. I stole the PCX graphics from the original autorun file and removed their index colour limitation, so the recreated autorun no longer retains that grainy compressed look of the original, but rather the full quality images, which is visible in this video.
That autorun/installation/setup program looks great, I might look into that.
I'll also wait until you get done with reuploading the Rayman Arena files to a better direct-link site.
Okay, how's the progress on the process of reuploading Rayman Arena and uploading the Rayman 2 ISO?
Just let me know by posting another reply on this post if you are already finished with Rayman Arena or the Rayman 2 ISO.
Everything.dk is frustratingly unstable, so I'm going to see if I can upload them to the new ROTD server. I may at some point have to remove them if I eventually discontinue use of the server or it begins to take up unnecessary space, but the chances of those happening are slim.
Please excuse me if this bump is catching you off guard, but I've waited 4 months and I'm looking around for the ISO for Rayman 2. If you're still online, perhaps you should post a reply to keep this topic up to date with the reuploading for Rayman Arena/Rayman 2 ISO. I have Rayman Arena on my Xbox 360 via backwards compatibility, so I have nothing to worry about, other than Rayman 2.

Thank you! Finally able to play Rayman 2 on my windows 7. When my old pc died and I lost xp I thought I would not be able to play this game. I tried to get to work on my own but nothing would work....so THANK YOU!!!!
I managed to launch the game, but there were no textures, I then proceeded to turn off the "Transform and lighting" but to no avail. Please help. I tried messing with the settings, didn't help either.
