Related articleThis HP game shows signs of improvement if we compare it with the first one...sadly, it is nothing really interesting for hardcore gamers. It's certainly just for kids, but if you want to see the world of HP, this is the game in which you can. The graphics are very attractive, and Hogwarts as well as Hogwarts grounds look splendid. The changes could be called significant, compared to the first game. Beside the better graphics, there are more game play changes: 1) Wizard Cards-more...and in 3 categories: bronze, silver, gold...haven't found all yet; 2) Lessons - each new spell is learned with the help of your keypad...The course for each lesson has an amount of time, and it depends on how much time you have at the end, how many points you get for Gryffindor; 3) Duels - Nice little thingies, where you can use 3 spells...it's a real good way to earn beans, which are of much more use than in HP 1; 4) Quidditch - there's a new controlling system here...I think it's far easier than the first. There are also more games, so you do have enough to play; The thing that disappointed me most was the battle against the basilisk, which is quite not as I expected it. The end scene looks groovy though. I'd say the game's worth a look if you're passing through a boring period, or if you just want to see the world of Harry Potter once again.

Video[edit]Launcher video settings. In-game options menu. Widescreen resolution[edit]Forcing a widescreen resolution without modifications cuts off the lower part of in-game menus. If using the default Direct-X 7 renderer, the LegacyD3DResolutionHack or dgVoodoo 2 is required to make popular resolutions higher than 2048x1536 work. If using Windows scaling above 100%, part of the game will appear outside of the screen. To fix this reset scaling to 100%.
Graphical Tweaks[edit]Unreal Engine DirectX 11 Renderer[edit]A fork of Kentie's Direct3D 10 renderer that adds more graphical features. Might cause some bugs and slow rendering. Run games at HD resolution. Improved lighting. Adds ambient occlusion, screen space reflections and higher quality HDR post-processing. Places a watermark in the bottom right, and overrides your clipboard with a link to the developer's PayPal. Follow these instructions to disable the watermark and remove the PayPal link from being inserted into your clipboard.
DirectX 9 renderer for Stock HP2[edit]A port of the Unreal Tournament DX9 driver, with fixes and HP2 specific implementations. Fully compatible with modern systems. Supports HD resolutions, anti-aliasing, anisotropic filtering, frame rate cap, v-sync, high res textures, DXT textures, and more. Better performance than the DX11 renderer.

Issues fixed[edit]Most bugs can be fixed with dgVoodoo 2 (UsePrecache should still be set to False in Game.ini). Certain transparent effects and textures are not rendered properly[edit]
Low frame rate on modern systems[edit]
