Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 – PC Fix
This fix adds modern PC features to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2, including widescreen resolution support, corrected aspect ratios, adjustable FOV, and a stable 60 FPS cap. It is based on Elisha Riedlinger’s Direct3D 9 wrapper and expanded with additional enhancements and patches by Chip.
Features included in this fix
- Correct aspect ratio options (hp8fix version only)
- Adjustable FOV
- Stable 60 FPS gameplay
- Editable d3d9.ini configuration
- Support for EA App and non-EA App versions
How to use
Download the fix.
If using hp8fix.zip, extract d3d9.dll and d3d9.ini into the game folder next to hp8.exe.
If using hp8NonEAAPPversion.zip, extract d3d9.dll, d3d9.ini, and fps.dll into the same folder.
Edit d3d9.ini to set your preferred aspect ratio, FPS limit, FOV, and other options.
Important installation notes
This game may not behave correctly unless installed to its default location on the 😄 drive.
If issues occur, right-click the game folder, disable “Read-only”, then check all permissions in the Security tab.
Ensure hp8.exe has not been hex-edited or modified. Use a clean, original executable.
Aspect ratio
Aspect ratio settings are available only in hp8fix.zip.
The default AspectRatio value is 0 (16:9).
Change this number to one of the available presets to match your display’s aspect ratio.
FPS
The default FPS limit is 60. You may lower this value or uncap it with 0, but the game breaks if run above 60 FPS.
The engine’s maximum safe framerate is 60; exceeding this causes major gameplay issues.
FOV
The default FOV option is set to 1 (on).
You can disable the FOV enhancement by changing this value to 0 in d3d9.ini.
Additional notes
The EA App version of the game requires the hp8NonEAAPPversion.zip fix.
Make sure the game files have full write permissions, or the fix may not load correctly.
