The Crossroads of Dreams was a place of heavenly bliss where calm, happiness and the joys of life seemed to reign forever. Some of the inhabitants even began to feel that the hours and days passed a little too slowly. Then, one day, a red Lum transformed himself into a cantankerous little ball of fluff. His name was Andr and he wanted to conquer the world. To this end, Andr turned the other red Lums into black Lums, then they all swarmed off to steal the animals hair and weave costumes for themselves. Thus was born the army of Hoodlums raring to spread their mischief and idiocy throughout the Crossroads. No-one could put a stop to them! So guess who had to interrupt his siesta to go and sort things out? (Ill give you a clue: the answers on the cover of this manual.)

Installing

Insert CD1 into your computers CD-Rom drive. The following window appears:
Install: Just click to start the installation process. Itll take a few seconds. Fortunately, youve got some interesting reading material to browse through while youre waiting! Play: Lets face it, this is what youve been itching for, ever since you bought the game. Click, and your wish shall be granted Unless, of course, you were in such a hurry that you forgot to install the game in which case, it wont work! Selecting the language from the menu.
Selecting the version to install
You have to select the version you want to install. This will depend on the free space available on the hard disk: The minimum installation installs all of the data on the 1st disk, which is 650 Mb. To play, CD2 or CD3 must be inserted in your CD-Rom drive.The maximum installation installs the data on all 3 CD-Roms, which is 1.5 Gb. To be able to play, CD1 should be inserted in your CD-Rom drive.

Access path

You must then select the location on the hard disk where you want to install the game. For example, c:\ProgramFoils\moygaymes\RaymunFree. By default, the installation suggests: c:\Program files\Ubi Soft\Rayman3.

Shortcut

You then have to decide on the program group which will contain the shortcut to the game. By default, it is the Ubi Soft Games group.

Uninstalling

(You can skip this bit it shouldnt really concern you!).
There are 2 ways of deleting the game from your hard disk: 1- In Windows, select 2 Uninstall Rayman 3 in the Start\Programs\Ubi Soft Games\Rayman 3 menu. 2- Insert the Rayman 3 CD1, start the game, admire the gorgeous installation menu and select Uninstall.

Starting the game

Once the game is installed, its easy to start it up from the Windows Start menu. The default path is: Start/Programs/ Ubi Soft Games/Rayman 3. If you have carried out the minimum installation, CD2 or 3 should be inserted. If you have carried out the maximum installation, CD1 should be in your drive (the CD-Rom drive, of course - silly!). The first time you start the game, a configuration screen appears. This allows you to adapt all the display data to your computers configuration. Rayman is also an educational game which helps you get the hang of foreign languages. There are 5 different lingos to choose from! You can access this screen by clicking on the Start/Programs/Ubi Soft Games/Rayman 3/Configuration Rayman 3 shortcut on your desktop.

How do I Quit the game?

Press the Esc key and then select Quit in the menu. You will be asked to confirm your choice (just in case youve changed your mind in the previous split-second). You dont even have to worry about saving. Its all automatic. (Isnt technology wonderful stuff?!)

NAVIGATING IN THE MENUS

To navigate in the RAYMAN 3 HOODLUM HAVOC menus, use the directional keys and the right and left CTRL keys on the keyboard. To validate your selection, press the Enter key. To go back, press the Backspace key (the key above Enter with an arrow pointing left).

BEGINNING THE GAME

Starting the Game
When the title screen appears, follow the instructions on the screen: press the Esc key to access the Main Menu.

Main Menu

Loading an Existing Game

From the Main Menu, select Continue and validate. You then go to a screen which groups together all your saved games. Select the game you want to load and validate.

Options

If you know how to read off a PC screen, you dont have to read this section!To access the Options Menu, select Options in the Main Menu (I warned you this wouldnt exactly make edifying reading). For all the Option screens, use the Backspace key to go back and the Enter key to validate.

Control Settings

Under this heading you can modify the settings for any kind of controller thats compatible with Rayman 3: keyboard or joystick. By selecting Definition, you can configure all the keys on your peripherals.

Look Mode

Keep the X key on the keyboard, or B1 on your pad, pressed down to move into Look mode. The camera places itself automatically at Raymans level. Not only can you swivel the camera with the directional arrows or the left analog stick on your pad, but you can also zoom in and zoom out with the + and keys on the number keypad (or the right and left mouse buttons) respectively. This mode is very useful for observing the situation before setting off to fight, or for finding all the bonuses.

When this happens, you can still move the camera using the mouse or your pads stick. You can even take photos and give free rein to your unbounded creativity by pressing the Enter key.

FIGHTING THE ENEMIES

Locking On
To LOCK ON to an enemy or an object, turn towards the target so that the sights appear and keep the left CTRL key pressed down. When youve locked on to your enemy, you can carry out any actions you want without losing sight of him: MOVE SIDEWAYS (STRAFING), using the directional arrows Jump or use the helico, using the assigned Jump key (by default, the Space Bar or the left mouse button) Roll in any direction by pressing the W key and directing yourself with the directional arrows Launch your fists with the assigned Shoot key

Launching the Fists

Rayman doesnt have big biceps hardly surprising, for an armless hero! but he does have 2 fists which can prove to be very powerful: To launch his FIST IN A STRAIGHT TRAJECTORY, press the assigned Shoot key (by default youre beginning to get the hang of this! the Space Bar or the left mouse button). To launch his FIST IN A RIGHT OR LEFT CURVE, press the left CTRL key, strafe right or left and press the Shoot key (to find out what the default keys are, just look 2 lines above ) To launch a LOADED FIST, keep the Shoot key pressed down (no, Im not saying it again you must know which keys by now!) until a whirlwind of power appears, then release the key to dispatch your fist. This loaded fist can be straight or curved. In short, use the left CTRL key to always face the enemy, then use all your fist types to attack him. The side fists are very useful for striking an enemy hiding behind an obstacle or for wounding those who dodge frontal attacks. Lastly, dont forget to load your fist. This can cause damage beyond your wildest dreams! A Little Trick (so you wont have read this manual for nothing ) Lock on to an enemy and activate the Freeze mode by pressing the F1 key. If you press the V key, youll get some useful information thatll help you get rid of him.

THE SUPERPOWERS

The Hoodlums have created a laser washing powder that can transform their clothing into battle dress. It also acts on Rayman, giving him Superpowers. When a Hoodlum has a $ symbol above him, this means that hes carrying a box of washing powder. Eliminate him to get hold of the box. But beware: the effect of the Superpowers is limited. So keep an eye on the gauge at the bottom of the screen to see how much time youve got left. To pick up the Superpower, all you have to do is move over the box.

Green box: VORTEX

Raymans fists turn into a whirlwind. You can make anything spin (driving it to distraction): a mushroom, a Hoodlum, or any other object or animal.
Red box: HEAVY METAL FIST
This gives each fist a Superpower: you can wipe out an enemy with a single blow and even break down doors.

Blue box: LOCK JAW

This power equips Raymans fists with metal jaws. You can use them to cling on to metal grabs. In combat, they cling on to the enemy. When this happens, press Space Bar or Left Mouse Button to give the enemy electric shocks.

Orange box: SHOCK ROCKET

One of your fists turns into a torpedo. First, press the C Key or the Right Mouse Button to arm it. Then press the Button again to launch it. Next, use the directional arrows or the left analog stick to direct it. This fist is very useful for reaching targets that are very far away.
Yellow box: THROTTLE COPTER
Rayman is now crowned with a fantastic helmet thats about as snazzy as you can get. Activate your helicopter, and off you fly!

SECONDARY OBJECTIVES

The Cages
The Hoodlums have captured all the Teensies and put them in cages to use them for shooting practice. Its up to you to set them free. Listen carefully! You can hear them calling for help when you go near a cage. Each time theyre set free, the Teensies give you a present and a jewel medallion fills up. When the 6 jewel medallions are full, the Life Bar increases.

The Score

All actions score points: Getting rid of enemies. Collecting Pick-Ups. These are splendid jewels that the game developers have scattered around for purely aesthetic reasons. The Hoodlums collect them and put them into Porkibanks pig-shaped money boxes that go all snouty when you beat them. Youll need to load your fist to break them. Whenever you win points, the Combo mode appears. The more you link up actions, the more points the Combo scores. But watch out: the Combo disappears after a few seconds. So dont hang around marvelling at the fabulous graphics that the development team spent months and months working on. If you want a great score, get a move on!! You can use your score to unlock bonus levels or previously unseen videos. So now youll really have to pull your finger out and get a good score, otherwise no bonuses! Ah yes, you dont get anything for nothing these days

HOW TO SCORE MORE POINTS

(Just so you wont have read this manual in vain.) Now that were beginning to get acquainted we can even call each other by our first names, if you like (yup, a few pages of reading-matter, thats what brings people together) heres the exclusive low-down that Murfy wont give you during the game. Whenever you get a Superpower, all the points you pick up are multiplied by 2. Try to find a Superpower before collecting all the Pick-Ups.
The Bo-peeps are chameleons who hide all over the place. You can hear them whistling when youre near them. Use the Look mode and centre the camera on them. Each Bo-peep you uncover scores 250 points.
The Heebie-jeebies are elegant young lady butterflies whore extremely timorous. If you approach them slowly, you can obtain 250 points. But if youre too quick, the terrified Heebie-jeebie flies off to see its shrink! Have a good look round. You may find one of the many secret zones that the developers had fun hiding. Theyre not unrewarding and are full of Pick-Ups!

MENU SCREEN

You can display the menus at any time by pressing the Esc key. By pressing the right and left CTRL, you can display the score page for the different universes youve been through. Use the right and left CTRL keys to display the Game Menu to save, quit or load a game. You can also access the Bonuses page. Depending on your score, you can unlock game videos as well as bonus levels and previously unseen videos.

THE CAST

Rayman
Rayman no longer needs an introduction. Hes already been top of the bill in the 2 previous episodes. Nowadays, hes a big star, even if he doesnt exactly behave like one. Hes always taking naps and larking around with his pals a fine example for the youth of today!

Globox

Raymans best friend has at last got the role of his life: not only does he mistakenly swallow Andr, the chief of the black Lums, but hes also chased by the Hoodlum army, whore trying to get their boss back. A real character part!
A ridiculous, pretentious greenbottle. Despite his stupidity, this upstart has succeeded in landing the role of coach the only explanation for which is a disgraceful bit of string-pulling!*
* Ubi Soft would like to state that the manual does not accept responsibility for these comments.
A depraved and hysterical baddie, Andr spends most of the game enclosed in Globoxs belly because the latter swallowed him. Andr has such a horribly warped mind that he obliges Globox to drink plum juice, making our poor friend lose all semblance of self-control

The Hoodlums

After some punishing auditions, the developers have brought together the worst army ever, made up of the dumbest enemies. Theyre dressed like potato sacks and are ready to use any old tactics, however ludicrous or dangerous, to stop Rayman and Globox.
