Warcraft II Widescreen / High resolution patch file

Download and extract all files into your game folder, open Warcraft_II_HD.ini in notepad to change your resolution.
Run the game via Warcraft_II_HD.exe. Do not use the old Warcraft II Config.exe anymore since it will revert some changes, use the new Warcraft_II_HD_Config.exe now instead.

Please report any bugs you find in here or on discord: Discord.com


Download (Tested with GOG.com version and War2Combat): Ftp.war2.ru


Note: Linux/macOS users need to add a dll override for ddraw for Warcraft_II_HD.exe


Live Streaming

For live streaming/recording with OBS the preferred way to capture the game is now "Game Capture". It's also possible to use "Display Capture" or "Window Capture" but to make those two options working you'll need to open "dd-hd.ini" in notepad and change the line "n to "n />
Full tutorial for live streaming is here: Forum.war2.ru



High quality scaling

The patch is configured by default with low quality upscaling just to make sure that it also works fine on older hardware.

To enable high quality upscaling you'll have to open Warcraft_II_HD_Config and choose the following settings:

Presentation = "Fullscreen Upscaled" (fullscreen lobby) OR "Borderless" (windowed lobby)
Renderer = "OpenGL"
OpenGL Shader = "xbrz-freescale.glsl" OR "lanczos2-sharp.glsl"
