Drop in and conquer the massive, living mountain rife with ego-crushing challenges and gravity-bending thrills. '''''SSX 3''''' ('''''Snowboard Super Cross 3''''') returns with more slopes and all-new hazards to overcome including lightning storms, vertical drops, serpentine slopestyle courses and avalanches. Customize your rider's clothes, abilities, and moves. Pull off three levels of awesome "Uber tricks." Dominate the mountain. It's a long way down, so make sure you're ready for the challenge.

Drop in and conquer the massive, living mountain rife with ego-crushing challenges and gravity-bending thrills. SSX 3 (Snowboard Super Cross 3) returns with more slopes and all-new hazards to overcome including lightning storms, vertical drops, serpentine slopestyle courses and avalanches. Customize your rider's clothes, abilities, and moves. Pull off three levels of awesome "Uber tricks." Dominate the mountain. It's a long way down, so make sure you're ready for the challenge.

Emulation Information

16:9

SSX 3 has a native 16:9 display option, but it requires enabling it in its internal options and setting Dolphin's Aspect Ratio graphics setting to "Auto". Using the widescreen hack with this title is not recommended. This title's "16:9" option will output a 16:9 image on a 4:3 display and is generally not desirable, the "Anamorphic" option will display widescreen output appropriately.

Light Halos Disappearing

When getting close to sources of light, the "bloom halo" will disappear. This means that light sources appear to pop out of existence as you get closer to them. Strangely enough, this occurs on console.

Problems

Sun Shines Through

The sun will show even through obstacles and terrain, which can be observed while riding through small caves or forests.

Uncheck "Skip EFB Access to CPU" in order to allow sun occlusion to work correctly.

VP6 Videos

SSX 3 uses the VP6 video codec, common in Electronic Arts' titles, causing its videos to have vertical line artifacts and other glitches on many graphics cards. The Software Render will display VP6 video correctly, but is typically too slow. VP6 rendering also reacts poorly to the Force Texture Filtering enhancements (and Anisotropic Filtering on NVIDIA), causing further scrambling. See issue 7193. In 5.0-15515 or newer, this can be fixed with "Manual Texture Sampling" in the Graphics Settings → Advanced menu.
