No Teensies Allowed?

Post by Sabertooth »

Does anyone know what the hell this is? It's a sign in the first level of Hoodlum Headquarters, and I have no idea what it's supposed to be representing. A Teensie? A Bird? A Cigarette? I can't imagine the Hoodlums would be too against smoking, and if it is a Teensie nose, it's the most minimalist design of one I've ever seen. Any ideas?

what version of game is? however it's clearly a teensie just like charts against rayman and Globox and I think it's obvious that the hoodlum hate them (because imprison them in cages) and teensies are not allowed

If I knew the more exact spot where this is I could try having a look on PC version and see if I could find that texture in higher detail. The fun fact of Rayman 3 HD is that some textures got severely downgraded... unless they aimed for HD graphics on a SNES perspective!

I've seen the raw texture files for both HD and PC and the HD ones are better by quite a bit. None of the textures got downgraded, but they removed all bilinear filtering on them for some reason which causes them to look pixellated, which is probably why it might look worse to you.

Anyway, I'll see if I can find this texture anywhere and see what this sign actually is.

EDIT: Wow, this particular texture is very low resolution for some reason:

It is alongside a red up arrow, a wine glass and some lines. Best thing I can make out for this texture is that it is a no smoking sign.

Ah I see now, you might be right.

As for the texture, I also believe now it is smoking related. PEGI 7 game!

I also think its 'No smoking allowed' sign. As for rating, I find it funny that HD version is rated PEGI 7, yet censored few things and original release was PEGI 3

Since we can bump with impunity today and since nobody seems to have understood this, it's clearly just a material hazard sign for the crates of plum juice.

The texture has four crate labels, which are: "This way up", "No smoking (i.e. highly flammable)", a barcode and "Fragile/Handle with care".

The confusion might have been caused by the fact that the crates are stacked up to form a wall, so the label looks like a notice on the wall, rather than just a bog-standard crate label.
