Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire – PC Fix

 

This fix adds modern PC features to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, including widescreen resolution support, corrected aspect ratios, higher framerates, adjustable FOV and a patch for the game-breaking crashes that occurred on certain levels when using resolutions above 1080p. It is based on Elisha Riedlinger’s Direct3D 9 wrapper and expanded with additional enhancements and patches by Chip.

 

Features included in this fix

  • Widescreen and ultrawide resolution support
  • Correct aspect ratio options
  • Adjustable FOV values
  • FPS unlocking
  • Patch for crashes at resolutions above 1080p
  • Editable d3d9.ini configuration

 

How to use


Download of the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire PC Fix.
Extract d3d9.dll and d3d9.ini into the game’s installation folder next to gof_f.exe.
Edit d3d9.ini to set your preferred resolution, aspect ratio, FPS limit, and FOV values.

 

Resolution and Aspect Ratio


The default resolution in d3d9.ini is set to 1920x1080. Change the Width and Height values to your desired resolution.
The default AspectRatio is 1 (16:9). Choose the correct aspect ratio for your display by changing the number to one of the available presets in the ini file.

 

FPS


The default FPS limit is 60. You may change this value or set it to 0 to fully uncap the framerate.

 

FOV


The default FOV value is 0, which corresponds to the game’s original FOV of 114.
You may increase this number to zoom the camera out further.

 

Additional notes


This fix resolves the specific crash that occurred on the following levels when using resolutions above 1080p 'Forbidden Forest, The Lake Task (2nd Task), The Maze Task (3rd Task) and Voldemort'.
All settings can be adjusted through d3d9.ini.
