Rayman M-Arena

So you didn't actually activate the special music mode at all, then?

The Globox Secret was nice, but I loved the pirates in Rayman 3 more.

I prefer that one too, because it's a funny cameo of characters which aren't in the game. Globox, however, is in Rayman M and the joke is totally destroyed if you happen to be playing a him.

Agreed. They should've had Clark or someone instead. But I still like it. It's supposed to be a race track and you can go off into a big beach. Of course the pirates room is the best. Ly's secret room in Rayman 3 is awesome as well, I always look forward to going to those secret areas when I play Rayman 3.

special music mode? what is that

[spiraldoor]

The thing you were just talking about.

[Sinus1994]

Yes, I do not know what that is too...

[MrBadGuy]

I'm having trouble trying to play Arena, I just reinstalled it because it kept telling me to put in the correct disc, and it then worked once, crashed while racing, and now it's telling me the same thing again... any suggestions?

[Acarr]

I'm having the same problem with RM.

[MrBadGuy]

You got any ideas?

[Haruka]

I never tried out the Arena version for PC...

It's just an idea, but you could try to use a "no CD crack".

[Phoenixan]

Yeah, it's kind of stupid, but when I had it working, you did actually have to put in disk one, run it, it'd ask for disk 2, and then you put disk 2 in, and then it runs.

And you can't start it straight up with disk 2, you have to put in disk 1 first.

So you have to switch between 2 disks to make this game play.

Holy shit other games spoil us so much.

Anyway, since it's crashing on you, I'd actually check your video settings. It was 16-bit by default for me, which actually made the game kind of unstable. For example, on my XP machine, it kept randomly minimizing, and when I'd pull the game back up, all the characters would be invisible. Switching it to 32-bit video mode fixed this.

[Joshua822]

Oh noes, now that you mention it, Windows Vista won't start the game for me at the moment I've tried compatibility mode, and running it with 32 bit graphics, but it doesn't work !

[Phoenixan]

Do you have 64-bit or 32-bit?

[Joshua822]

Do you have 64-bit or 32-bit?

32 bit But i've already found the problem :

RaymanM.exe runs good, SetupUbi.exe however has some problems with Windows Vista, even when you run it on compatibility mode. So you should redirect the shortcut "1 To play Rayman M" to "C:\Program Files\Ubi Soft\RaymanM\RaymanM.exe" instead of "C:\Windows\UbiSoft\SetupUbi.exe -play RAYMANM". Then Rayman M will run well

[Phoenixan]

Ah, yeah, I had similar issues with Rayman 3.

[PluMGMK]

That also needs to be done for Rayman 2, I found years ago.

[MrBadGuy]

Hmm, no I tried everything, and I'm still getting the error "Please insert the correct CD-ROM, select OK and restart application"
Maybe I'll end up just paying for the PS2 version...

Did you also try the no CD crack ? And are you playing the game from the CD ( do you run the game from the autorun menu when you pop in the CD ? ) ? What version of Windows are you using ?

[MrBadGuy]

As far as I know, there is no CD crack. Yes I've tried it from the CD menu. I'm using Vista..

[Joshua822]

First of all, try running it from your hard drive ( the installer will have made shortcuts to play Rayman M in your start menu and on your desktop ).

Here's a no CD crack. I didn't test it though, but it's wurth a shot.
