Rayman Pirate-Community

A .deleted extension? I've never heard of that. Could you not have tried just renaming it back to its original name without the extension?

Tried that, it didn't work, Dolphin couldn't recover it. All of my saves didn't work and I had to dump them to make new ones

Alright, I played Rayman 3 for a while and took some new screenshots!
They're from The Land of Livid Dead. And yeah, I had to change the screenshot key from F1 to just 1 so that it would be easier for me to take pictures without pressing Fn + Shift + F1, otherwise the functuion keys just don't work properly. Why? Cuz of the second display I have on my laptop. ANYWAY!
Here are the screenshots I promised to show! Let me know which one of the three you like the most. Mine are 1st and 3rd :3
1st just seems epic like he jumped like a ninja, the 3rd just has nostalgic shading and rendering, reminds me of the times when I was younger and wanted to see the sunrise so many times cuz it was quite addictive for me back in the day.
Raybox says hi to y'all!!~

That first one looks really beautiful especially you're correct ^^
That Land of the Livid Dead tower level always captured my imagination, and I like the other 2 pics you've made as well, the blue really pops out!

What do you think of Great Spirit Palmito?

That's not the Great Spirit Palmito, that's just... a Palmito.

As for my thoughts on the Great Spirit Palmito: if I had a nickel for every time that Teensies got imprisoned by someone for making a lot of noise, I'd have two nickels. Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that this happened twice, right?

Yes, lots of blue is what my personality is, just like the screenshots I made!

Adding some notes: I came back to The Longest Shortcut. Finally. I hope I can go further. And I cleaned my old laptop's disk up from some garbage so it works a little bit better. Anyway, back to R3! New screenshots will be here soon, but only when I go further (for instance, to The Summit Beyond the Clouds). Would like to know your opinions on this!

The Longest Shortcut is definitely a point where the game slows down and where it can be tricky to know how to advance, especially if you missed one crown and you don't know where it is. It's kind of like the calm before the storm, starting from The Summit Beyond the Clouds and beyond you're in the home-stretch to the final boss and the game will definitely ramp up and peak at that point. The Summit Beyond the Clouds is my favorite world in R3 artistically and it features my favorite part of the game which is its second level. This is the point where the game gets seriously good ^^

The Longest Shortcut actually has some hidden secrets I didn't even know about and found out about until years later, and that is while already knowing about the secret statue. See if you can find the hidden R2 easter egg in Hoodlum HQ as well!

About the Hoodlum HQ easter egg... well, I know where it is pretty well, even a long time later. I remember it pretty well so it's easy for me to find it

That is quite possibly the most impressive single level in the game. It beats even the starlight tower in LOTLD, and feels on par with the epic climb in TOTL part 2.

These TLS secrets are the only way to get Murfy stamps, IIRC. The one in HH is just cool.

SBTC2? I always found it a slog tbh

What I really like is how almost every level in Rayman 3 has its memorable highlight that everyone loves. I'm a huge Rayman 2 fan, and it's got some of the best levels in the series, but they don't all feel so different from each other, and there's a few that are not so memorable in my opinion.

I totally agree! Rayman 2 is the peak for sure and I love how it handles swamp levels, but there's maybe just a tad too many swamp-themed levels in that game. I also never understood why there's both a sanctuary of stone and fire, and a sanctuary of rock and lava. It seems like a missed opportunity to mix different themes in the game but I can understand that it's easier to re-use assets in order to save development time and maybe meet some deadlines.

Oh and that's without even considering the fact that the sanctuary of rock and lava actually consists of 2 levels instead of just 1.

Alright, here are some new screenshots I made (not all of em, I show the top 3) All of em look like they were taken from the real R3 movie lol! Maybe I'm getting better at making screenshots, who knows

I absolutely love the vibe the snowboard section of SBtC, the night sky and the almost cabin feel with the mtns is just perfect

I wholeheartedly agree and I thought it was more popular but apparently *ahem* some people think it's a slog

You mean me? I said SBTC2 is a slog, the snowboard section is SBTC3!

I used R3 Print Studio last night and it was such a wonderful experience! Nah seriously, I love it! Thanks to R3PS I have Rayman taped to my laptop's head. Haven't been happier in my life before!

Which one was it? The original (2003-2004 calendars) or the revised one from the Anniversary Collection (2006-2007)?
Try the RRR Print Studio from the Activity Centre next.
