Essential improvements

Rayman Optimum

This patch is compatible with disk versions of Rayman and GOG.com Rayman Forever.
  • Patches and additions include:
* Adds Rayman Designer, Rayman by His Fans and Rayman 60 Levels in English
* The game now plays in the full, correct native speed
* The missing intro movie from Rayman Forever (including GOG.com version) is now included in full 60fps
When installing this patch a CD key will be required. If you bought GOG Rayman, you can unlock it with that. Any GOG files will be superseeded by the patch files, and will become irrelevant.
