Super Mario Sunshine

Mario makes his debut on the Nintendo GameCube with Super Mario Sunshine. On a vacation away from the Mushroom Kingdom, Mario finds himself in a messy situation on the island of Delphino, where a Mario look-alike has been causing all kinds of trouble. Explore huge 3D environments that range from a lush waterfall paradise, to an exciting amusement park complete with a rollercoaster you can ride. Mario makes use of a new water pack, which allows him to hover, launch, and rocket around levels, as well as spray enemies with. Mario has never had so many cool new moves, or looked so good in 3D.

Problems
{{Problems|{{#vardefineecho:problems|

Shaky Props
On lower-end machines, enabling dual core mode can cause certain props to be shaky, such as the bridge in Bianco Hills. See. The only way to fix it is disable dual core mode or enable synchronize GPU thread, but that can cause slow-downs during emulation. See.

Slowdown on Map Transition
Opening the map causes the game to slow massively until the transition effect is complete. There are no lingering effects after the map is open or closed, just the transition. Switching to OpenGL or Vulkan backend removes the slowdown.

Debug Cubes
During certain "Secret" scenarios, debug cubes are visible due to an uninitialized color. See. The boxes were invisible starting with, but returned to the old behavior in. Fixed again in.

}}}}

AR Codes Cause Crash
If certain Action Replay codes are activated, then the game may crash upon trying to return to a completed level. This has been confirmed with a "Press B to run fast" code. To solve the problem, simply disable the code.

Water Color Effect
Super Mario Sunshine reads the mip level of the sand to change the color of the water slightly in the distance. This effect cannot be detected by Arbitrary Mipmap Detection normally, as the sand is just a standard mipmap, so at higher internal resolutions the ocean will appear a bit greener. The effect is very subtle, and may not even be visible on your monitor, depending on its color reproduction capability.

Adding  (this value was determined empirically) to the   section of the GameINI will make this effect work at higher internal resolutions, by causing the sand texture to be detected as an arbitrary mipmap. However, this will make the sand a few other random textures appear more blurry in the distance. Using any HiRes texture for the sand will prevent the effect from working.

Anisotropic Filtering
Use of the Anisotropic Filtering enhancement will cause water to render as white, getting increasingly worse as higher levels of anisotropic filtering are applied. Fixed with Arbitrary Mipmap Detection in.

Graffiti Behaves Oddly

 * Anisotropic Filtering above 1x or Anti-Aliasing set to SSAA makes the graffiti disappear.
 * Requires Texture Cache Accuracy to be set to safe to prevent missing graffiti textures.
 * Graffiti edges may appear blocky if Scaled EFB Copy is enabled, but this causes the heatwave effect to appear pixelated when running at a higher internal resolution than native resolution. You can use an optional Gecko code to remove the heatwave effect: 0419f83c 4e800020.

16:9 Aspect Ratio Fix
The built-in Widescreen Hack causes various clipping and reflection issues. The Gecko codes below work as a replacement for the NTSC-U or PAL versions. These codes can have adverse effects on the games heat distortion effect.

The Gecko code:
 * Makes the cutscenes run very slowly on non-NA releases
 * Causes falling stars to appear in the top corner and top middle of the screen
 * Makes the swimming blue/red coins in Gelato Beach near impossible to get (without the turbo nozzle)

The below Version-Specific 60FPS Gecko codes fix the blue/red coin fish speed and graffiti fill speed.

Falling Stars Fix
Remove falling stars caused by 60FPS code by applying Minimum Camera Distance Gecko code by Ralf. However, this code may cause other issues, specifically with the roller-coaster in Pinna Park. When loading this specific level (for example, just after the cutscene with Mecha-Bowser), the screen goes black and nothing more happens.
