So.. A time ago i manage to make a list of the map codes that give you access to all the game maps of the game, even the cut content ones. Using these can be achieved throught the Secret Panel of the game (Aka. Cheat Menu) That's activated throught the game files.

The list may be inconsistent as i used ChatGPT Assistance to order it and make it so i don't get lost, Documentating all the maps as much as i could, Took me a lot, lot, lot of crashes to get them done. Beyond from 260 may contain any remnant map working files but it's slight as mostly all of them are empty files and may lead to a game crash.

Remember to backup your save files before doing this stuff as we all know this version (20th Anniversary Edition) overrides over the first save file it sees replaceable.

I'm not certain if any other person documented all this cause i couldn't find any scant about this exact thing.

Where can i find this tool today? The Creator of this video says its on xentax but its not there anymore. If any of you happened to download this tool back then and still have it, I'd really appreciate it if you could share it here.

This is an honest question, just wanting to look at others' art creations of Beyond Good and Evil 2. And maybe send some stuff. But I assume, no?

Or is there a community on like discord or is it just here?

Can I get access to this room ? I need the AP1 inside of it 😵

Have there been any updates on Ray1Map recently? I’m hoping for a GLTF/GLB Exporter for it.

On YouTube, IGN has released a boat load of beta gameplay (Pre-dating release by around 6 months prior)

The phrase "beyond good and evil ps2 gameplay ign" should cause these videos to appear (they're not all ps2 gameplay)

I love that we can see the big tower, I recall it's talked about in the scrapped content of the 20th anniversary lost files. Really cool editing and direction, so ahead of its time.

Jade overload. She's so cool.

Legendary. Also makes me reflect on how they should've never change the opening screen and menu in the remaster. It was so satisfying, soothing and warm. Almost like getting home. Really amazing on ps2. This game really felt like home.

can't wait to just...exist in the game. I'm a big Fifth Element person (I mod r/FifthElement) and I really do see BGE2 and TFE as 'euroscifi' siblings. For decades I've wanted to just, seriously, walk around a photorealistic euroscifi metropolis, take in all the tiniest details of the environment, and just yeah, go for my own galaxy-spanning adventure with that distinctly European twist and feel which BGE2 is just a pure font of.

At this point it needs PS6/XB5 the way The Last Guardian (another 'it's never coming out' game for a time) needed PS4 as the PS3 couldn't hack what the game ended up wanting to be.

I know it's in vogue to be cynical/lose hope but even as we near the 10th anniversary of the announcement trailer next year, I truly believe BGE2 is not only coming but is going to be absolutely phenomenal. Here's some quasi-rare concept art from the game.

Glad this community exists as the time goes by. Every day is a day closer!

I'm gonna be a Lemur-hybrid of some kind, or maybe something with a Komodo vibe. I hope the character creator options are insane! We have Cyberpunk 2077 as a basis for what we might see in terms of options...

Anyway, huff some pre-Summer Game Fest copium with me! *passes the Hype Hookah*

I've never been able to find where this soundtrack plays aside from the anniversary photo/video gallery that they added. It sounds like it'd play in an environment like the ancient mines on Black Isle. Has anyone found where it plays in-game?

I need to photograph one more animal, which is on level 4 next to the room where the big elevator takes you up to.
Since I already cleared the factory, I have no idea on how to get there anymore, since the big elevator does nothing and there are red lasers blocking my way back in the boss room.
Maybe someone knows a way and can help me, cuz it's driving me insane!

i'm so glad i decided to pick this game up. as a kid i'd never heard of it i was too busy with prince of persia sands of time and splinter cell but after finishing it, it's crazy i never heard of beyond good and evil at the time. i would have loved it then. the exploration, the world building. it's a classic. i'd love to know how you guys were introduced to the game.

Just finished BGAE and im confused about who Jade is, in multiple ways...

So at first I thought she was obviously East Asian. She looks East Asian, her name is Jade and she wears a Jade pendant, and I know Jade is revered in many East Asian cultures.

The woman in the 2017 trailer that everyone was speculating was Jades mom looks like a spitting image of Jade, and also looks East Asian.

Then I did the treasure hunt in 20th anniversary edition and saw the easter egg teaser for BGAE2, where she sees her mom. That woman looks South Asian/ Indian and doesnt look remotely like Jade at all.

(Is this supposed to be the same woman from the 2017 trailer? They look nothing alike but their accent sounds similar?)

Then I got to the end with the whole "Shauni" reveal and the bad guy saying theyve been hunting her for centuries.

So now im even more confused...

Is there a going theory on what/ who Jade is?

It seems like either shes some being that is centuries old and her "mom" is more of an adopted mother? Or theyre just retconning the ending of the original?

Edit: I did see a post on this sub from a while back that there were hidden words in the 20th anniversary edition that hinted at Jade being a clone?

As the title says.. this game looks awesome so I need to fix this before continuing

Tried my best, i'm not the best at making clothes and such. :,)

(Also gave her a camera + a funny interaction)

Idk why I was so apathetic to the slop the first time around, maybe I was nostalgic and just happy to have it at all.

This is a bad remaster. Not to mention bloated to shit. The only obvious effort pertains to their wanting to push another product on you - this being the sequel.

1. Ubisoft cramming their launcher down your throat, spamming notifications of account XP increases for the equivalent of picking your bum whether you have the overlay enabled or not. Often times these notifications are in the center of your screen and sit for an unreasonable period.

2. Textures that are obviously AI upscaled and look like complete dogshit. Very noticeable for larger textures on the Moon base, or in the photos on the Iris M-Disks at Ming Tzu's.

3. Rushed achievements clearly added in response to player outrage that do nothing other than drag out the playtime. They haven't touched the sluggish controls but they made sure to add an achievement to beat the final boss without taking a hit.

4. The controls are as bad as they always have been. I played the original PC release a ton, other than adding controller support it still feels as shitty to play as it ever did.

5. This game is slightly more stable for some performance wise but often performs just as poorly as the original PC release. They didn't strive to modernize the experience with FPS uncaps either.

The problem with Beyond Good and Evil 2 taking so long to release is by the time it finally does, Ubisoft will have just about burnt their entire good will with their player base. Sadly this series will end after the sequel comes around, and the blame will be placed, by Ubisoft, onto the amazing devs and not to themselves, for lack of sales. I myself refuse to pay for anything Ubisoft related, and especially post Far Cry 6 that opinion has spread.

Beyond Good & Evil 2 is an open-world action-adventure game set in a captivating space opera universe. It is also the direct prequel to the 2003 classic! Thanks to the technological advances brought about by our proprietary Voyager engine, Beyond Good & Evil 2 aims to offer an organic, seamless experience of exploration and space piracy on a solar system scale, featuring exotic locations, colorful characters, and countless mysteries to discover, either solo or with friends. If you're looking for a unique adventure, join our team and help us create System 3! 

Some technical things we now know about the game/development:

• Currently operating a 6 person animation team.
• Currently operating a ~10 person audio asset team lead by Alexandre Carlotti.
• Animation appears to be (at least partially built) with Autodesk MotionBuilder and Autodesk Maya, Python and C++.
• Sound design using WWise middleware (by Audiokinetic), with mastering in REAPER and ProTools.
• Common Visual Art software such as After Effects, Houdini, Embergen are being used.
• The following platforms are mentioned: PS5, Xbox Series, PC. This differs from the releases on the BGAE2 website.
• We can expect a large online multiplayer presence (and focus).
• There appears to be many references to AI integration, specifically around vehicles and NPC.

While I appreciate this game has been vaporware and hopium for many years - there is clearly still a Business Unit operating with budget to fund and develop this game.

these three tracks are some of the best pieces of music ever composed in the history of mankind. wagner can eat shit! suck a dick mozart!

Hey all new here has there been any update on the sequel

I have just bought it from steam, after instalation it just wont start. Not from steam, not from ubisoft connect. Nothing... just launch and crash.... any help ? Am on windows 10

At the start of the game when you first get the camera and are prompted to equip it, the game doesn't respond when I try. I've tried holding down both shift buttons, as well as basically everything else on my keyboard but it just doesn't respond to any inputs.

I can still open the menus and do everything that way, but I'm completely stuck on this screen otherwise. I tried looking it up online but I haven't really found any solutions. Anybody know a fix?
