Issues fixed
Refuses to start on Windows 8 and later
- Error message:
Check your version of DirectX. Version 8.1 or higher is required.
Missing textures and broken graphics
Fix TnL issues[5]
|
- Install Better Rayman 3.
- Open
BR3_Config.exe .
- Make sure Hardware Vertex Processing is enabled.
|
Fix Intel HD Graphics[6]
|
- Download d3d8to9.
- Move the d3d8.dll into Rayman 3 folder.
- Make sure if you have Better Rayman 3 installed that in the d3d8.ini d3d8to9 is set to 0.
Notes
-
d3d8to9 set to 1 in d3d8.ini from Better Rayman and Hardware Vertex Processing enabled is required to make the game work with ReShade.
|
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. Frame rates above 60 FPS also 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 game back to 60 FPS, this also prevents the game from dropping FPS randomly.

Modifications
- Contains higher quality AI upscaled textures from the PC port of the game (and some recreated) instead of the poorly upscaled/bugged Xbox 360/PS3 version's textures.
- Fonts in some languages (like Polish, Slovak or Hebrew) can be broken after installing this mod. Download this to fix it.
- Overhauls the game's lighting and colors.
Fixing graphical issues and running the game flawlessly on Linux
Instructions[9]
|
- Download and Install Wine for your distro. Lutris comes with Wine, but it's better to have it installed as well.
- Download and install Lutris for your distro.
- Use Lutris to install whichever version of Rayman 3 you own, by searching for the install script 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 "Rayman3.exe". (By default, the GOG version's directory is: /home/<your username>/Games/gog-galaxy/drive_c/Program Files (x86)/GOG Galaxy/Games/Rayman 3/)
- Set the "Working directory" as the Rayman 3 install directory, then hit save.
- Right click Rayman 3 in Lutris and choose "Browse files".
- Open "R3_Setup_DX8.exe" and set the game to a resolution your monitor can display. (I chose 1024x768, this is only temporary)
- Run the game temporarily by double clicking "Rayman 3" in Lutris. You can close it as soon as you get to the title screen. (The next 2 steps ensure the game will launch after installing Better Rayman 3)
- Install Better Rayman 3 to the Rayman 3 directory.
- Right click Rayman 3 in Lutris and choose "Winetricks".
- 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.
- Download dgVoodoo and put the D3D9.ini file from the "MS" directory into the Rayman 3 install directory.
- Put "dgVoodooCpl.exe" into the Rayman 3 install directory too. This is needed for later.
- Open d3d8.ini in the Rayman 3 directory and change "D3d8to9 = 0" to "D3d8to9 = 1", then save and close it.
- Right click Rayman 3 in Lutris and choose configure.
- In the "Runner options" tab, enable DXVK, then hit save.
- Right click Rayman 3 in Lutris and choose "Wine configuration".
- Click add application, then type Rayman3.exe and hit open
- Make sure Rayman3.exe is highlighted in the "Applications" tab, then navigate to the "Libraries" tab.
- Type "d3d8" into the "New override for library:" box and hit "Add".
- Type "d3d9" into the "New override for library:" box and hit "Add".
- Hit "OK" to save the settings and close Wine configuration.
- Browse to the Rayman 3 directory and run "BR3_Config.exe". (If it doesn't launch, skip to step 30)
- Set the "Resolution" to whichever one you plan to use, and optionally set "Texture Quality" to "High".
- Uncheck the box labeled "Vertex processing", then click "OK".
- If BR3_Config opened for you, skip these 3 steps, otherwise, find and open "ubi.ini". (The directory should be: /home/<yourname>/.wine/drive_c/windows/Ubisoft/)
- Change "Gli_Mode" to whichever resolution you want. For 1080p, use "Gli_Mode=1 - 1920 x 1080 x 32".
- Change "TnL=1" to "TnL=0".
- Now double-click Rayman 3 in Lutris to launch the game and it should work. You should be able to see the Ubisoft logo and a dgVoodoo watermark in the bottom right indicating that it is working. The dgVoodoo watermark can be disabled by running dgVoodooCpl.exe and going into the options menu.
