This fix adds modern PC features to The Hobbit (2003). Official Video Guide Requirements before using fix For the fix to work properly YOU MUST HAVE patched the game up to version 1.3, which also contains bug fixes. If you have not done so already then you can download the patch from here - The Hobbit (2003) 1.3 Patch Features included in this fix FPS Toggle (between 60 and 30fps) Higher FOV support Full mouse look movement Windowed/Borderless Window support How to use Download the latest The Hobbit (2003) fix (that is correct for you) of either: The Hobbit (2003) Mouse Look On Fix (Main fix to use) The Hobbit (2003) DLL Only Fix (If user wishes to use other 3rd party apps such as Reshade use this fix) The Hobbit (2003) General Fix Once you have downloaded the correct fix for you extract the files into your games main install folder next to the Meridian.exe file and you are good to go! You can edit the settings you wish to use in the various ini files. Resolution It is advised that the Resolution is changed within the pause menu options. This is due to a bug that can occur on the main menu which prevents the user from being able to change their Resolution properly. FPS FPS can be toggled in the game, you can set whichever hotkey you wish in d3d8.ini use [hotkey]keycodes.txt to see which hex code belongs to the key you want to use and copy paste it to the d3d8.ini hotkey setting. This will mean that you can use the key you select to toggle between 30 and 60 FPS in game at any time. The default is 0x55 which is the "U" key on the keyboard. The user will have to use this toggle on the chest puzzles as they speed up on any FPS above 30 and become impossible to complete. It is also advised the user does this for the vines that can break under Bilbo's weight. These can sometimes break faster than intended but not all the time. FOV FOV is off by default in the ini which is set to '0'. The d3d8ini has 3 options to choose from in this fix, slightly zoomed out, a bit more zoomed out and mega zoomed out (1),(2) or (3). The Hobbit (2003) Mouse Look On Fix This version is so that you can use the mouse to not only pan the camera left and right but also pan the camera up and down at all times during gameplay using the MouseLook feature. IMPORTANT make sure to go into the main menu -> options -> controls -> keyboard -> next -> next -> MouseLook -> Remap this key specifically to the NUMPAD - (subtract) on your keyboard by clicking the key its set to -> then clicking NUMPAD subtract '-'. Play the game with full camera pan in all directions on the mouse. Incase you dont have acess to the NUMPAD subtract '-' key on your keyboard then follow the instructions below: Set your own key for this inside of d3d8.ini under [INPUT] AlwaysHoldVK=0x6D -> default is numpad - (subtract) You can use the included file called [hotkey]keycodes.txt to change the key. If you change the key in the d3d8.ini make sure you also go into the main menu -> options -> controls -> keyboard -> next -> next -> MouseLook -> Remap this key specifically to the key you have now set inside of d3d8.ini otherwise this feature will not work. The Hobbit (2003) DLL Only Fix This version uses 13AGs ultimate ASI loader to inject a DLL only version of the fix into the game. This will work alongside ReShade, RTX Remix, and other mods using d3d8.dll. Put the winmm.dll and update folder into your game folder next to the Meridian.exe and your good to go. If you want to just use the DLL only then take Chip.asi and chip.ini rename Chip.asi to Chip.dll and you can inject it yourself.

If you experience double input A possible effect of this fix can be that in some cases it will make the original games native X-input work again in your game. In that case it is important to note that in this fix for each input inside of the .ini file you can put = NONE For example A = NONE B = NONE You can do this for every input on the Xbox controller in the d3d9.ini file. This will then completely disable the custom (chip-xinput) layer for the game but the native X-Input will still work. You can either put NONE for each key as in the example above OR at the top of the d3d9ini set output = 0 Otherwise you would have an xbox button doing 2 inputs inside of the game e.g: Native A = Jump in game + Chip X-Input = LMB in game at the same time Issues/Problems If you have any issues, with the fixes then please go to discord for help linked below.

In order to fix that crash problem, so YOU MUST USE the Start Up Crash with Controller Fix to be able to use the games original controller D-Input support. Once you have downloaded the correct fix for you extract the files into your games main install folder next to the SpiderMan.exe file and you are good to go! You can edit the settings you wish to use in the various ini files. Resolution/Aspect Ratio Choose the Resolution you wish to use in the d3d8.ini file by writing the Width and Height for your specific Resolution. Aspect Ratio is automatically calculated. FMVs Chip has spent lots of time fully reverse engineering the games FMVs to fix them. All fix releases now come with two folders inside 4K and 1080p this is for the FMVS fullscreen fix. To set the size of the FMVS edit the settings inside of the d3d8.ini file. The FMV fullscreen fix has been tested on 1080p, 4K resolutions. This is also tested on the Steam Deck by using the 1080p folder and setting the Resolution in d3d8.ini. The basic rule is: 1080p and any Resolution under use the 1080p fix folder Anything above 1080p Resolution use the 4K fix folder You may however need to play around with this If you don’t want intro movies to play and get straight into the game then: Go to path-to-game\movies and delete or rename the following files (make sure you back them up somewhere else) ACTIVISN.bik GrayMatr.bik Origin1.bik Treyarch.bik If you are still experiencing a crashing issue with the FMVS/Movies, then you may have to rename the folder in your games install location ‘Movies’ to a different name such as ‘Movies Broken’ so then the game plays without the FMVS/movies at all. This should however, not happen anymore and if it does its extremely uncommon. FPS The default for FPS is '60' you can change it as you wish in the dxwrapper.ini file under the option OverrideRefreshRate. It is also recommended that you leave both v-sync options on by default. FOV To choose your FOV edit it in the d3d8.ini file There are 4 different options to choose from '1', '2', '3' and '4' with each one zooming out the FOV more each time. It’s advised to not go above (2) if you do not wish to see any objects popping in and out of view in open city levels. If you don’t wish to use any FOV and stick with original, you can just set this to '0'. Controller Support (X-Input) Chip has spent some time writing a full custom dinput8.dll which provides X-Input support for the game. This will work with Xbox controllers. You can tweak right stick sensitivity in controllersupport.ini. If you don’t have an Xbox controller and use PlayStation, you can use DS4/5 or add the game to Steam as a non Steam game. If you want to use the custom controller support download the Spider-Man (2002) Custom Controller Support Fix. Custom controller support will only work for those without the crashing on start up issue, if you have the crashing on start up then you MUST USE THE Spider-Man (2002) Start Up Crash with Controller Fix.

Comes with a RAR file, which includes an ASI plugin intended to fix the field of view in the first/third-person truck driving game "18 Wheels of Steel: Haulin'" (2006), as the game crops the image at resolutions with an aspect ratio wider than 4:3 (Vert-). Source code available here: https://github.com/alphayellow1/AlphaYellowWidescreenFixes/blob/main/source/fixes/18WheelsOfSteelHaulinFOVFix Instructions: 1. Extract all files to the game folder. 2. Download ThirteenAG's Ultimate ASI Loader (32-bit version of winmm.dll), and also extract it to the game folder. 3. Set the desired resolution to fix the cropping and FOV factor in 18WheelsOfSteelHaulinFOVFix.ini.

Fix by haolink Megadimension Neptunia VIIR - VR Fix Explanation Megadimension Neptunia VIIR has some cool VR segments, The issue here is that the team who ported this game to the PC, Preapp Partners, have specifically hardcoded lens shapes only for CV1 Rift and HTC Vive What the game does is instead of obtaining the data from SteamVR is checking which vendor your headset is and thats all. You got a VIVE Pro or VIVE Cosmos? Means it will apply HTC lens distortion You got a Rift S or an Quest? Rift Distortion it is. You got another vendor then HTC or Oculus? Then the game simply closes SteamVR connection, which causes the game still to try and output the scene to a VR headset which causes it to crash since it has nowhere to output it to. What this patch does is trick the game into thinking your vendor is HTC, which allows you to play the VR segments on any VR headset (with some downsides, see Known Issues) Installation Download DeltaPatcher Extract the contents and open DeltaPatcher Set the Original file to the location where v2r.exe is located in (You can open the location by going into steam and right-clicking the game and then Manage > Browse Local Files) Put the .xdelta patch into XDelta patch. Optionally, you can also backup the original file by clicking on the cogwheel in the bottom right and selecting Backup Original File Press Apply patch Make sure to always launch SteamVR before opening the game, otherwise the game will crash on VR segments. Known Issues The game always runs at 920x1080 SteamVR scaling does not work The game stutters/twitches alot in VR, albeit in a playable state. Since the game applies the VIVE lens shape, the game may look distorted on other headsets, this is not an issue on Valve index due to how similar the lens shape is compared to VIVE. The game freezes if you click out the window or minimize it.

The official patch has DOS components that won't run properly on modern Windows. Hence this is the extracted patch of what the original patching program would do.

If both games are crashing or freezing on Win10/11, put these missing dll files in game folder. Fix for both games: The Suffering The Suffering Ties That Bind For Aspect ratio, FOV and more different fixes visit PCGamingWiki page.
