SSX Tricky is a snowboarding video game, the second game in the SSX series published and developed by EA Canada. In SSX, players choose one of several varied characters, participate in races or trick competitions, and earn rewards. The game's sequels are SSX 3, SSX on Tour, SSX Blur, and SSX: Deadly Descents. It is named after Run-D.M.C.'s "It's Tricky", which is featured throughout the game.

Emulation Information

16:9

SSX Tricky 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 "Animorphic" option will display widescreen output appropriately.

Problems

Internal Assertion Error

When starting the game, Dolphin raises an assertion error in VertexShaderGen.cpp at the line _assert_(bpmem.genMode.numtexgens == xfmem.numTexGen.numTexGens); it is currently unknown what causes this. Refer issue 9930. This has been fixed by 5.0-11866.

Lens Flare

The lens flare effect cuts speed on even the most powerful computers. Using the Vulkan backend can improve performance, or the effect can be disabled entirely by turning on "Skip EFB Access from CPU" in configuration. Fixed in 5.0-9735.

Configuration

Only configuration options for the best compatibility where they deviate from defaults are listed.
