The PS1 version played really well on a PSP and was the most different version - probably due to specific hardware limitations of that console. I wasn't able to get PCSX2 to play the PS2 version (Rayman Revolution) without terrible slowdowns. VMWare Emulation should conceivably provide a more consistent and therefore stable environment for gaming.įor measure I tried Project 64 EMU for the N64 version, nullDC for the Dreamcast version and ePSXe for the PS1 versions of the game. It seems like many problems I had with games (Shadow Man, Area 51, etc.) were related to just my particular hardware setup. I was stunned to find that VMWare played it flawlessly. For fun I decided to try VMWare Player running XP 32-bit guest from the Windows 7 64-bit host. I dual-boot XP 32-bit and it works fine from there. My system is ATI 790GX, Quad Core 2.6 Atlhon with virtualization, and 2Gig RAM. I couldn't install Rayman 2 PC version from the original disc on Windows 7 64-bit. If run as User then they are dumped in the profile. If you run the game as Admin then the config files are dumped in \Windows\Ubisoft.

Never needed to use any compatibility settings. You can set the res manually in the config file and that will work tho. Can't change the res higher than 640x480 in the game otherwise it will crash. Just tested it under 7 64bit with an Nvidia Geforce 8400M GS. I'd rather play the game on the PC.ĭOSFreak: some questions about how you've played/tested the game in Vista: did you disable UAC for testing? Can you remember if you've used any compatibility options on the excutable? Do you happen to know where the game's config files (they are stored in "%windir%\UbiSoft" on XP) were located in Vista?

It's amazing though how bad the PSX version looks compared to the PC one, even when using advanced rendering options. My current "solution" is to play the PSX version with an emulator. It's a lot of effort for just one old game though (. I think i have an image of my old Vista installation somewhere, maybe i'll try running the game on it just to see if it works. Olemogamer: i don't think the "version" of the game is the problem, but rather the OS i'm trying to run it on.ĭosFreak: could you test the game in Win7 圆4? It's interesting anyway that it works for you under Vista. Obsolete information and not useful because i'm trying to run the game on a modern OS, not XP.

Of course i've already tried running the game via Glide, it doesn't work.
