SRDX/Controls

Controls

AS Sonic Riders DX is a modified version of the GameCube version of Sonic Riders, we will relate all controls as if you were using the default GameCube controls. You can use and remap any of the controls on Dolphin Emulator, however as you are just emulating a GameCube controller these inputs are still how the game would read them.

Movement

Sonic Riders has 2 main control schemes during a race. One used while riding your extreme gear, and another used while running on foot.

Run State

There are 2 subdivisions of Run State. Start of Race Run & Out of Fuel Run. Out of Fuel Run has additional controls, and has much higher acceleration.

Universal Run Controls

Holdor
The character either runs forward, or walks slowly backwards. Acceleration is increased the harder you move the stick.

Rotate

On Your Gear
