'''''Beyond Good & Evil''''' is an action-adventure game with elements of puzzle-solving and stealth-based games. Players control the protagonist, Jade, from a third-person perspective. Jade can run, move stealthily, jump over obstacles and pits, climb ladders, push or bash in doors and objects, and flatten herself against walls. As Jade, players investigate installations in search of the truth about a war with an alien threat.

== Emulation Information ==
=== 16:9 Black Borders ===
Beyond Good & Evil uses a 4:3 image ratio, but displays in 16:9 letterboxed format. On a native 16:9 screen this results in black bars around the entire screen, needlessly constraining the image. This is not a problem - just the way the game renders - so no solution is expected.

=== Pink Loading Screens ===
Loading screen render pink unless '''Store XFB Copies to Texture Only''' is disabled.

=== Frame Rate ===
=== <s>Frame Rate</s> ===
This game seems to throttle to 120 FPS. To set it to 60 FPS like most other GameCube games enable XFB. Though this won't do much, since the 120 FPS are based on increments of 2 and never goes to an odd number, thus its basically 60 FPS on its own. High system requirements are definitely needed to play at close to full speed.
The game's framerate will not be a steady 60FPS 60VPS, fluctuating throughout the game, usually sticking to 120FPS 60vps. However it does not interfere with gameplay most of the time. Virtual XFB fixes this problem, and it is set by default in the GameINI. The opening menu still has some issues, however. Fixed by {{revision|5.0-5874}}.


=== Taking Pictures ===
=== <s>Taking Pictures</s> ===
The game freezes for a while when taking pictures.
With D3D, the game freezes for a few seconds after taking a picture. Use OpenGL to avoid this problem.  This was fixed in {{revision|5.0-9741}} and {{revision|5.0-9735}}.

=== <s>Shakes</s> ===  
== Enhancements ==
After the merger of the FIFO-BP branch in {{revision|3.5-644}}, upon entering the Ancient Mine on Black Isle, Jade "shakes", allowing her to go through walls and become stuck. Fixed by {{revision|3.5-1319}}.
=== 60Hz PAL ===
In the PAL-Version the 60Hz mode cannot be activated at startup. Use this Gecko code to force the 60Hz mode.
