Difference between revisions of "Rayman 3: Hoodlum Havoc"
From PCGamingWiki, the wiki about fixing PC games
(→Gameplay aspects malfunctioning: All versions of the game besides PS2 run at 60fps, and handle the same way as PC running at 60fps. Therefore, the game was designed to be played at 60fps, but gameplay issues can arise at framerates higher than this.) |
(→Game crashes after task switching: Ray3Fix using BR3 and better wrapper fixes the issue) |

+ | # Use Lutris to install whichever version of Rayman 3 you own, by searching for the install script [https://lutris.net/games/ here]. I installed GOG from there and used that to install Rayman 3. | ||
+ | # Open Lutris and click the plus in the upper left, then press add game. | ||
+ | # In the "Game info" tab, put the "Name" as "Rayman 3", then set the runner to "Wine (Runs Windows Games)". | ||
+ | # In the "Game options" tab, click browse to the right of "Executable" and browse to the Rayman 3 install directory. Choose {{file|Rayman3.exe}}. (By default, the GOG version's directory is: {{folder|{{P|linuxhome}}/Games/gog-galaxy/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/GOG Galaxy/Games/Rayman 3/}}) | ||

+ | # Choose "Select the default prefix". | ||
+ | # Select "Install a Windows DLL or component". | ||
+ | # Look for "dotnet40", then click it and hit "OK". This may take a minute to install, once it's done, the Winetricks dialogue will pop up again. You can close it once it does by either hitting "Cancel" on each dialogue or clicking the X on the top right. | ||

Notes
|
If you still have some texture issues, follow these instructions. |
---|
Game elements run too fast
- Rayman 3 by default runs at 72 FPS and may drop to 36 FPS randomly. Above 60 FPS can cause various issues; e.g. some animations play out too fast, shielded enemies turn faster and certain platforms disappear more quickly.
Use Better Rayman 3 |
---|
Install Better Rayman 3 to lock the frame rate at 60 FPS; this also prevents the game from dropping FPS randomly. |
Limit the frame rate to 60 FPS[11] |
---|
Use d3d8to9 or dgVoodoo 2 and set the refresh rate to 60Hz[12] |
---|
Misplaced HUD elements[13]
Use Better Rayman 3 |
---|
Override system DPI (instruction based on Windows 11[14]) |
---|
|
Lower refresh rate[16] |
---|
(or) Cap your frame rate to 60 FPS (fixes additional borders issue) |
---|
Lower your resolution below FHD |
---|
In Rayman3.exe change offset 1A9EAE from the default value "40" to "11" for 16:9 or "21" for 16:10 in hex editor like HxD (works with BetterRayman)[17][18]. |
