Hey all,

I've been working on this for a while and it's finally in a state where other people can try it. OpenTricky runs the Xbox version of SSX Tricky natively on Windows. It's not an emulator: the game's code is recompiled to run on PC (thanks to sp00nznet's xboxrecomp), and only the graphics, sound and input are rewritten on top of Direct3D 11.

What's in it

• It finally looks like the console version again. The fog, sun lens flares, terrain haze and proper colours are back, the Uberboard isn't black anymore, and the race intros play all the way through.
• High frame rates (120, 144, 240 or uncapped). The game logic still runs at 60 like on the console, and the extra frames are interpolated, so physics and AI are untouched but everything feels super smooth.
• Real ultrawide support (21:9 and 32:9). You actually see more of the mountain instead of a stretched image.
• Optional extras: SMAA, soft shadows, longer draw distance.
• A small launcher in the style of the game menus, with keyboard and controller remapping. The sound crackling and the freeze on the EA logo are fixed too.

What you need: your own copy of the game (Xbox, USA) as an .iso. The download only contains the exe, no game files, so please don't ask for ISOs.

Fair warning, this is an early unstable build. There's a rare crash in the race intro, the HUD is still stretched in ultrawide, there's a quick flash when you respawn, and no VSync option yet. Everything is listed in the README with workarounds. If something breaks, a bug report with the log file helps a lot.

Next up: a proper ultrawide HUD, VSync, PlayStation controller support, more performance work, and I'm also poking at online play.

Big thanks to MatiasRiveraC for the original port, sp00nznet for xboxrecomp, and the xemu folks, whose work helped a ton with getting the rendering right.

I’ve been porting with Claude for a few days. It's playable, and I've set the frame limit at 120fps. You can play in native (720p) or at double the resolution (1440p). There are some texture bugs at 2x resolution. However, it does not interfere with playing.
On my RTX 4070, the native resolution averaged about 110 fps, and at 2x, about 70 fps.

Hey guys,

Im the guy who shared a few years ago that he was making a "remaster" of the game !

I have some very good news about it.

The goal has always been to have a more or less native port of SSX on PC.

Now that we’ve reached the playable phase on my end, please tell me: what would you want to see in a "definitive edition" of the game?

(Exemple : Online, custom character ? Etc.)

Thank you! ❤️

Yeah its not a reimplem anymore its straight a port to PC so why bother rewriting the game right ;)
