Settings
How to adjust the settings of the game such as graphics, sound, resolution, key mapping, ect.:
The game has a settings-application called "Beyond Good and Evil Settings". In the steam version, it is an exe file you can double click, located in in
Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\beyond good and evil\SettingsApplication.exe
Graphics Issues
Texture Flickering Issues
Launch Settings and click "Advance Settings".
First Method
Disable the following:
- HW Vertex Processing
- Multi vertex stream
- Autogen mipmap
For most people simply disabling HW Vertex Processing works flawlessly, HOWEVER this usually slows down the game badly, including on high-end machines, which is why some prefer the second method.
Second Method
Another popular fix is to simply disable antialiasing in the "Advance Settings" menu and checking the manual compatibility box.
If this doesn't work completely (On some machines some flickering still remains) and you have an Nvdia graphics card then you can go to your control pannel (Which may be accessed from the bottom right corner of your pc) go to the "manage 3D settings" menu, then to the "program settings" menu, add bge.exe (Which should be located in the folder where you installed the game) and finally select "override any application setting" in the anti aliasing mode.
Aspect ratio
The game only has the correct aspect ratio when played on a 4:3 monitor. On 16:9 and 16:10 monitors, the characters therefore seem shorter than they are supposed to. Some 16:9 and 16:10 monitors can fix this by cropping and streching the image so that the black bars are out of the shown picture. On Sony TV's the symbol for this is 46px
Better FPS
Launch Settings
- Lower or Disable Antialiasing.
Audio Video Sync
If you are having problems with the sound not syncing up with the picture, go launch Settings, go to "Sound Settings" and choose your Sound Card.
More information on this: http://www.gamefaqs.com/boards/561436-beyond-good-and-evil/46820765
Using a monitor with a native refresh rate above 60Hz may also lead to sync issues. To correct this, change your refresh rate to 60Hz or use an fps limiting program such as Dxtory to set max fps to 60.
Game controller
The game only works with mouse and keyboard, so you will have to use something like XPadder or Pinnacle Game Profiler if you want to use a controller.
XPadder
Here is a suggested configuration for the xbox 360 controller. (I am not sure if it corresponds to the real XBox and XBox 360 configuration, perhaps someone could confirm this or add instructions on how this is?).

Pinnacle Game Profiler
A different profile file for commercial software Pinnacle Game Profiler also exists, which repairs the camera controls when sidestepping (which - due to no feature for it - Xpadder can not do) and is available here: http://www.gog.com/en/forum/beyond_good_and_evil/bgande_gamepad_profile
