Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 Fix

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 – PC Fix

This fix adds modern PC features to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1, including widescreen resolution support, corrected aspect ratios, FPS unlocking with optional toggle hotkey, and selectable FOV options. 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
• Optional zoomed-out FOV or original game FOV
• FPS unlocking with or without toggle
• Editable d3d9.ini configuration

How to use

Download the fix.
Use one of the following fixes: hp7fix.zip, hp7fixNOTOGGLE.zip, hp7fixOriginalFOV.zip, or hp7fixOriginalFOVNOTOGGLE.zip.
Extract d3d9.dll and d3d9.ini into your game folder next to hp7.exe.
Edit d3d9.ini to set your preferred resolution, FPS, FOV, and aspect ratio.

Aspect ratio

The default AspectRatio value is 0, which corresponds to 16:9.
Choose another preset by replacing 0 with the number that matches your display.

FPS

The default FPS limit is 60. You can change this value or fully uncap it by setting it to 0.
hp7fixNOTOGGLE.zip runs at the FPS you set in the ini file. Menus will speed up, but cutscenes remain correctly timed.
hp7fix.zip allows toggling between your chosen FPS and the original 30 FPS using the “9” key (top row, not numpad). Press the key again if it does not toggle the first time. After the initial switch, it will alternate cleanly.

FOV

hp7fix.zip and hp7fixNOTOGGLE.zip include a zoomed-out FOV.
hp7fixOriginalFOV.zip and hp7fixOriginalFOVNOTOGGLE.zip use the original FOV values.
Choose the version that fits how you want to play the game.

Additional notes

The “9” key toggle helps bypass FPS-related menu issues.
Cutscenes are unaffected and play at correct speed.
All settings are controlled through d3d9.ini.
