Developer console compatibility

This fix is fully compatible with the developer console mod by Spectral Platypus.
Download the console mod from: https://github.com/SpectralPlatypus/QWC-Console/releases/tag/v1.2
Place d3d8.dll and imgui.ini from the mod into the game folder next to QWC.exe.
Then download hpqwcfix-consolemodcompatable.zip from Harry Potter Quidditch World Cup fix and extract its contents into the same folder.
This allows you to use both the developer console and the Harry Potter Quidditch World Cup fix patch simultaneously.
Instructions for using the developer console are available on the mod’s GitHub page.

How to use

Download the Harry Potter: Quidditch World Cup fix.
Extract d3d8.dll and d3d8.ini into your game folder next to QWC.exe.
Edit d3d8.ini to configure resolution, aspect ratio, FPS and FOV.

Resolution and Aspect Ratio

The default Resolution is set to 1920x1080. Change the Width and Height fields to your preferred resolution.
The default Aspect Ratio value is 1 (16:9). Choose a different preset by selecting the number matching your display.

FPS

The default FPS limit is 60. You may change this value or uncap it completely with 0 using the FPSLimit option in d3d8.ini.

FOV

The default FOV value is 0, which corresponds to the game’s original FOV of around 114.
Increase the FOV value to zoom out the camera further.

Additional notes

This game benefits greatly from higher aspect ratios and modern resolution support.
All configuration is handled through d3d8.ini.
