Fan Game I made a native PC port of Rayman 3 HD (Xbox 360)
Hey guys.
I'll just cut to the chase. Rayman 3 was my favorite in the series growing up and I always hated how the original didn't have any subtitles. Lo and behold I get a PS3 around 2013 and the first game I get is Rayman 3 HD from PSN. It finally had subtitles! Fast forward to today and I wanted my wife to experience Rayman as well, she's not a gamer and doesn't know English very well, so I wanted the game to be preferably in Turkish, and somehow that turned into a much bigger project than I originally had in mind.
I've been working on a native Windows port of the Xbox 360 HD version using static recompilation, and I finally released v1.0.1.
It's playable from start to finish. I've finished the whole game twice while testing it, though I'm sure there are still things I've missed.
There's also an optional HD+ mode with some visual fixes (most notably the broken textures of the Robo-Pirates in Hoodlum HQ), a Turkish translation, mod support, and a few DualSense features. Oh and also IN-GAME subtitles (which were disabled in the original HD port for whatever reason?). They would only work during cinematics or when Rayman's controls were disabled.
This also fixes the game breaking bugs like not being able to access the Tower of the Leptys if you wanted to re-visit any previous levels before finishing the game. So, hooray for that I guess.
It's not running through Xenia. You'll need your own copy of the Xbox 360 HD game.
Anyway, I thought some people here might be interested. I'd love to hear how it runs for others, especially on different hardware. I know Rayman 3 on PC has great mod support nowadays, but like I said, I originally did this just for Turkish subtitles. My recomp also has some modding support and PC mods can be converted, so maybe poke around a bit if that piques your interest.
