(→‎Availability: The post in this archived forum thread mentions the game was also available in the United Kingdom, so it wasn't exclusive to Russia.)

Sonic Adventure DX (2011) is a cartoon third-person platforming game developed by Sonic Team and published by Sega, and was released for PC on March 4, 2011. It is the updated version of the original Sonic Adventure DX from 2004.

This re-release of Sonic Adventure DX originally served to address some of the issues of the previous 2004 PC port, however, it also introduced new problems of its own, such as limited screen resolutions options, the game screen is pillarboxed to a 4:3 aspect-ratio, poor frame-skipping, and re-uses the poorly converted WMA audio files from the 2004 port. Its configuration launcher also has issues of not saving the game's settings, and it is missing some of the unlockable Game Gear games from the previous PC port and GameCube version.

This version of the game was later replaced with another version in 2014 to address the issues with this re-release.

See the glossary page for potential alternatives.

Anti-aliasing (AA)

Use Nvidia Profile Inspector (Nvidia only)[4]

  2. Add Sonic Adventure DX.exe to the profile you just created; for the Dreamcast Collection version, also add Sonic.exe.
  3. Change the value of Antialiasing compatibility to 0x000000C1.

Notes

This fix allows MSAA, SGSSAA, OGSSAA, or OGSSAA-based HSAA (with or without SGSSAA) to be forced through Nvidia Profile Inspector.
If using the Dreamcast Collection version for this fix, forced anti-aliasing will only work when your display resolution for the game is set to 640x480.
Use SADX Mod Installer and force anti-aliasing through GPU control panel[5]

Issues fixed

Configuration tool does not save settings

The Steam version's configuration tool does not save settings properly, and the Dreamcast Collection version's configuration tool does not write a new configuration file if one is missing without re-installing the game.
Steam version: Add key through Registry Editor[8]
  1. Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall
  2. Check if you have a folder named SEGA on it. If you don't, right click on Uninstall, click New, then Key and name it SEGA.
  3. Right-click SEGA, click New, then Key and name it Sonic Adventure DX.
  4. Right-click the newly created Sonic Adventure DX and click New, then String Value, and name it Sonic Adventure DX.
  5. Double-click the Sonic Adventure DX string and change the value to 1.
Dreamcast Collection version: create the configuration file manually[8]
  1. Check if you have a series of folders from %USERPROFILE%\Documents that goes up to SEGA\Dreamcast Collection\Sonic Adventure DX. If not, create a new folder in %USERPROFILE%\Documents and name it SEGA.
  2. Go into the SEGA, right-click and select New → Folder, and name it Dreamcast Collection.
  3. Go into the Dreamcast Collection folder, right-click and select New → Folder, and name it Sonic Adventure DX.
  4. Go into the Sonic Adventure DX folder, create a new text file and name it config.ini.
  5. Open the config.ini file you created with a text editor, and then paste the following into this file:
    [Sonic Adventure DX]
    COLOURMODE=1
    CONTROL2P_INDEX=1
    CONTROL2P_TYPE=3
    CONTROL_ATTACK1=1
    CONTROL_ATTACK2=2
    CONTROL_CAMERA_MINUS=36
    CONTROL_CAMERA_PLUS=37
    CONTROL_CANCEL=1
    CONTROL_CONFIRM=0
    CONTROL_DOWN=33
    CONTROL_INDEX=0
    CONTROL_JUMP=0
    CONTROL_LEFT=34
    CONTROL_RIGHT=35
    CONTROL_TYPE=3
    CONTROL_UP=32
    CONTROL_WHISTLE=3
    FOG=1
    FULL_SCREEN=0
    LANGUAGE=1
    RESOLUTION=4
    VOLUMN_BGM=80
    VOLUMN_SE=80
    VOLUMN_VOICE=80
    
  6. Save the file (File → Save or Ctrl+S) in this location. The Dreamcast Collection version's configuration tool should be able to read and write the configuration files again.
