Henchman1000: /* Rayman 2 Press Kit */ Double image here as well.

*''This article is about the early production of the 3D build of the game. For the original 2D prototype, see [[Rayman 2 (cancelled prototype)]].''

''[[Rayman 2]]'' underwent a bunch of changes during its development, most which have been found through hacking and from old trailers.

== Cut levels ==
Judging by the content of the PC version, the cutscene in [[the Prison Ship]] where [[Rayman]] frees the prisoners, which first appeared in the Dreamcast version, was originally meant to appear in the PC and Nintendo 64 versions.

In 2018 it was discovered that the PlayStation version contains a reference to a level by the name [[the Walk of Bravery]], which was meant to appear between [[the Echoing Caves]] and [[the Precipice]].

The PC version also has leftovers from several unused levels, being the following:
* Learn_20
* Whale_20
* Astro_20
* Wipe_10
* morbide_tst

There was also originally meant to be a connection between [[the Fairy Glade]] and [[the Echoing Caves]] in the Hall of Doors <ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cJQcHip4tDE Rayman 2: Mysteries of the Hall of Doors at YouTube</ref>.

== Early names ==
Below is a list of all of the currently known early names for levels, locations and characters.

* The [[Technical Check-up]] - originally the Emission Control station
* [[Polokus]] - originally Polochus
* [[The Marshes of Awakening]] - originally the Marshes of the Awakening and the Marshlands of Awakening
* [[The Fairy Glade]] - originally the Fairy's Glade (the early name is used in ''[[Rayman Revolution]]'')
* [[The Canopy]] - originally the Wilderness
* [[The Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]] - originally the Sanctuary of Lava and Fire
* [[The Precipice]] - originally the Great Rift
* [[The Top of the World]] - originally the Roof of the World
* [[The Sanctuary of Rock and Lava]] - originally the Sanctuary of Rock and Stone and the Sanctuary of Earth and Stone
* [[Beneath the Sanctuary of Rock and Lava]] - originally beneath the Sanctuary of Earth and Stone

== Miscellaneous ==
The cheat code "GETELIX" is mentioned along with the other known cheat codes in the PC version, but it appears to be unused. It was most likely meant to give the player the [[Elixir of Life]] before entering [[the Cave of Bad Dreams]].

==Unused textures==
Many textures which were later used in the PlayStation version can also be found in the files for the PC version suggestion they were originally meant to be included there as well. These include the textures for [[Antitoon]]s and the stone with [[Ly]]'s face. Textures from the Dreamcast version were found as well, such as the textures for [[Eig]]. Some leftovers, such as controller icons, where found from the Nintendo 64 version.

==[[List of Rayman demos|Demo]]==
There were two different [[List of Rayman demos|demos]] made for ''[[Rayman 2]]'', both of them including two parts from [[the Fairy Glade]].

[https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_HAsjQRA3-kRTdhLXpEbnlxWHM/view?usp=sharing Demo 2]

Although the [[List of Rayman demos|demos]] are very similar and include the same levels, there are some minor differences.

=== Differences from ''[[Rayman 2]]'' ===
*[[Rayman]] falls into the level after the [[Robo-Pirate]] animation in the first [[List of Rayman demos|demo]], instead of afterwards like in the final version.
*The total amount of [[cage]]s show 0 in the first [[List of Rayman demos|demo]], instead of 7 like in the final version. [[Cage]]s can however still be broken and will result in it showing 1/0 etc.
*The heads-up display can't by triggered to show by pressing "J".
*The transparency doesn't work on all textures.
*[[Rayman]] starts with the upgraded [[Magic fist|fist]] from [[the Canopy]].
*[[The Hall of Doors]] uses the French name "Mapmonde".

==[[List of Rayman demos|Demo]]==
There were two different [[List of Rayman demos|demos]] made for ''[[Rayman 2]]'', both of them including two parts from [[the Fairy Glade]].

[https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B_HAsjQRA3-kRTdhLXpEbnlxWHM/view?usp=sharing Demo 2]

Although the [[List of Rayman demos|demos]] are very similar and include the same levels, there are some minor differences.

=== Differences from ''[[Rayman 2]]'' ===
*[[Rayman]] falls into the level after the [[Robo-Pirate]] animation in the first [[List of Rayman demos|demo]], instead of afterwards like in the final version.
*The total amount of [[cage]]s show 0 in the first [[List of Rayman demos|demo]], instead of 7 like in the final version. [[Cage]]s can however still be broken and will result in it showing 1/0 etc.
*The heads-up display can't by triggered to show by pressing "J".
*The transparency doesn't work on all textures.
*[[Rayman]] starts with the upgraded [[Magic fist|fist]] from [[the Canopy]].
*[[The Hall of Doors]] uses the French name "Mapmonde".

Rayman M (early production)

2020-10-27T18:58:28Z

Henchman1000: /* Early level concepts */ Double post, removed lower resoluted pic.

''[[Rayman M]]'', later released as ''[[Rayman Arena]]'', was originally two separate projects later merged into one. The first one, which ended up being the racing part, was named ''Rayman Tribe'' and the second one, the battle part, was named ''Rayman Shooting Fish''. Originally the racing levels were meant to be more closely based off of the levels from ''[[Rayman 2]]''.<ref>Play tests - 2nd series Feedback, http://gamedesign.free.fr/docs/RAYMAN%20M%20PlayTest%20Feedback%20-%202nd%20series.doc</ref>

== Early level concepts ==
Based on early concept art of the race levels they were originally going to be more closely based off of the levels from ''[[Rayman 2]]''. Images found in the files show concepts for levels such as [[the Woods of Light]] and [[the Sanctuary of Stone and Fire]]. In the final game some of these concepts were used, but heavily altered.
