Rayman Flash games

Hey there,

Since most of the Rayman flash games aren't playable anywhere anymore, I thought it might be a good idea to put them somewhere in a separate section of the portal? I have them on my computer and putting them online might be a way to save them from oblivion.

The flash games I have (all working) are:
  • Rayman vs Cullcut (which is fun IMO)
  • Rayman 3: Shooting Game ("le jeu de tir" from tfou)
  • Rayman Web Based (which is crap)
  • Globox 2001 (Ubisoft's happy new year game)
  • Pirate-shooting minigame (simple but fun)
  • Rayman GBC (an alright minigame demonstrating Rayman on GBC)
EDIT -> All of those games are translated by yours truly and available here: http://www.mediafire.com/?eu882cbbgyd7yyi

I could try to get Globber working but it looks pretty hard to get all the files in the right place.
I can also translate Rayman vs Cullcut (and maybe other flash games) to English, because I have the source and it's really easy to change the word list (just a simple notepad edit works).
I also have an exe file (can't convert to flash, sadly) that contains 3 Rayman 1 minigames in French. It came with Rayman Collector so I assume it's pretty rare. Maybe that should be put online too, but that's harder since it's not flash.
Sadly, my favourite flash thing from Rayman, the autograph-o-matic from tfou (which would be an awesome addition to any Rayman site), is lost. I can't find it anywhere, not even in the internet archive. :/

So what do you think? Would the games be a good addition to the portal or not?

Droolie.

You have the pirate shooting one? Wow, we were looking for that one since a while. Can you send me somehow every game you have?

Unfortuneatly I cannot help you with the autograph-o-matic thing, but with pity I feel bad that Ubisoft dropped the postcard creator they had in flash back in 2003 for VIP members, I remember to play it.

I've heard of the Rayman flash games, though the only one I managed to play was the Globox one, which was quite a while ago, it would be brilliant if you shared these.

The three French minigames that came with Rayman Collector have already been uploaded by someone, and are well-documented.

Sounds like an excellent idea, even though I have yet to figure out where to add them on the portal. That's also the case for half-forgotten documents such as the phpBB RZ archive.

That someone was me. Those were in my Rayman Collector CD. I also wrote the articles in RayWiki.

Maybe in an "extra" section in the sidebar, at the bottom of the page?

Anyway, I'm going to upload the games soon, but first, I need someone to come up with insults for Rayman vs. Cullcut. My vocabulary isn't that rich, you see. I already translated the flash files so everything runs in English now, but I still need to translate the word list. Actually, can you guys help me?

To translate the rest of Rayman vs Cullcut, I actually just need as much bad words as possible. Literal translations aren't possible as that would ruin the gameplay (words are usually easier/harder to type in English than in French). I need about 200 insulting words to translate the whole thing. More specific: I need insults that are easy to type (like "RAT") and some that are hard to type (like "HIRCISMUS" - that's still an easy one compared to the French version but I can't really come up with any hard ones).
Or just post links with lists of good one-word insults, that helps a lot too.
So, get creative and help! Post as much as you can come up with! And put some funny ones in there! =D

Here's a little preview of what I already translated:

Alright, thanks! Those are in it now. :D
I need more though, especially ones that are hard to type (or long). Any ideas?

And while I'm at it...

Thanks, those are all in the word list now, even "fathermucking" though I'm not sure that fits there, hehe :P

Yep, that's right :) I'm just translating it (there is no English version). It's more than halfway done so yay. :D
