Hi,
I have two questions, first is there anyway, I can get subtitles in game? I often cant understand the dialogue due to way the characters speak and I am missing out great jokes :(. Second I have this gamepad http://www.amazon.com/Saitek-PP32-PS2700-Rumble-Console/dp/B001EYU1UU/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1310497569&sr=1-1 can I somehow make it work? It doesnt react when I want to rebind the keys, it isnt responding in menu...the game is acting like it wouldnt exist.

I don'T think is there any chance to get subtitles - if the software enginers made a subtitle function, you can change the langue, but you can't install a sub without the programmed function. So i'm afraid this is impossible.
About the gamepad - have you been set it up under the windows? I have windows xp, and i have to setup it to make it work. You can try this, who knows? I think there is a calibrate function in Vista/win7 too to try out.
If it not working, you can try this: go to this site, select Gamepads, then PS2700 Rumble Pad for PC and PlayStation. Finally select your operating system and download the driver. Install it, and i hope this is the end of your problem.

Still doesnt react :(

The i have no clue what could you do, sorry. I googled a little, but didn't found anything related. You can always try contact the gog support, or try your luck with the Ubisoft - but i don't think they still supporting Rayman 3.

I'm also having issues with the gamepad not working. Its actually a ps2 controller using a converter. It reads it in the config program to test the looking axises but its dead in the game.

I figured it out...kinda . Download some mapping software (as me Pinnacle Game Profiler) and then to each button assign key on keyboard (for example X=A , left stick up = W etc. etc.) then the game will think you are using keyboard, but you are enjoying the game with gamepad! Enjoy!
