Deadly Premonition Fixes collection

By -3xA'Lu©κy the disappearing act

The PC port of Deadly Premonition usually requires a fair amount of work be put into it before you can become satisfied with the game itself. I knew this prior to even purchasing this game and still went ahead to buy it anyway, consulting the PCGamingWiki site afterwards for a relatively long period of time. There's a ton of issues with this game and a ton of fixes to match, and while I was collecting all of this I had essentially created a little fix package. Everything downloaded, no compressed files and everything neatly laid out. Not long afterwards I decided I would make a .zip file of this package (81.6 MB in size) and upload it so other people wouldn't have to waste time hunting for and downloading all the individual files. And that's what ultimately lead to this guide being created in the first place.

For those who think the file contained in this guide may be a virus:

What this package contains

The 81.6mb .zip file, which you can find a download link for directly below, contains the following:
https://www.dropbox.com/s/m6xy6b27psh0l5o/Deadly%20Premonition%20Fixes%20collection.zip?dl=1

• a save file for chapter 3 should you need it (a link for it was found on the PCGamingWiki site)
• a save file for chapter 9 should you need it (a link for it was found on the PCGamingWiki site)
• an "ESSENTIAL FIXES" folder which will be covered in more depth below
• a "Skipping intros-logs" folder which contains a pre-edited DP.exe file that automatically skips intros or logs at the beginning of the game when used
• an "Issues and fixes" document which has a list of issues and fixes compiled from the PCGamingWiki site and the game's Steam hub (some of this information I didn't change much or at all, as it was written well enough to begin with)
• a "LAA patch (4 GB).exe" file which, should you need it, will make the game Large Address Aware (it can be found on www.ntcore.com/4gb_patch.php )
• a "PhysX 9.15.0428.exe" file which, should you need it, will install the latest version of PhysX (at the time of this writing)

The previously mentioned "ESSENTIAL FIXES" folder has the following inside:
• a "1. DPfix" folder (v 0.9.5) which will give you access to higher resolutions and more graphical options for this game
• a "2. Color correction fix (SweetFX)" folder which will allow you to tweak the colours so they resemble the Xbox 360 version of the game (this version of SweetFX came from: http://forums.guru3d.com/showpost.php?p=4581604 )
• an "3. OPTIONAL SweetFX preset" folder which has a single document with values for SweetFX that more closely resemble the Xbox 360 version of the game (this preset came from: http://sfx.thelazy.net/games/preset/1115/ )
• a "4. Refined textures" folder which collects 5 better looking textures and a different font: a HD hud and icons pack, unused pause screen textures, York's jacket without a crease fold, a cleaner main menu screen, an optional folder for players who use a Playstation controller (it replaces the default Xbox 360 buttons in-game with Playstation buttons) and a folder with an optional font texture which is easier to read and considerate for those who have Dyslexia (all 6 of these textures were recommended and had links to them on the PCGamingWiki site)
• an "5. Extra outfits for Emily" folder which collects 6 outfits that could previously not be worn and were shown throughout the game an additional "Raincoat Killer Emily" outfit (both of these had links to them on the PCGamingWiki site and it seemed like they were worth applying to this game). NOTE: some of these selectable outfits are spoiler-ish so it may be better to apply this after you have finished the game!!
• an "Installation process" document which tells you how to apply the above 5 fixes to the game (I used PCGamingWiki as a base for most of this information)

Thanks

Everything works fine for me with these fixes. Still can't alt-tab since it causes the game to go black screen. Controller support can be easily enabled by loading a community gamepad layout from Steam controller settings.

Thank you so much <3

I believe I did everything correctly, however the game for me is still showing the intro video and then afterwards shuts down the program. I will say that when the cinematic starts I press escape to skip it, so for all I know that is the issue(?). Was I correct in having the folder "DPfix095" in the folder for the game, or was I supposed to put all of it's file contents into the game's folder? To clarify, when I say game's folder I mean the one that has the DP.exe file and the folders with names like "redist" and "savdata".I would greatly appreciate any help, as I don't know what to do and I am pretty sure I have followed things correctly.

after downloading your file and putting the df fix file straight into the deadly preminition directors cut folder, the game nolonger opens in widescreen, even after uninstalling the game and reinstalling it, it still wont open in wide screen and no matter what i do in the dfconfig files

The outfit name is just the name of the outfit, stop being so melodramatic acting like it's a spoiler, it is not.

It's hilarious how many people aren't grasping the raincoat killer Emily outfit is purely cosmetic and has no bearing on the story lmao

ty for spoiler

Thanks for giving instructions on how to install it. Other guides didn't.

The raincoat killer has not been spoiled. If it was a spoiler I would’ve made more of an effort to hide this fact.

I understand the frustration but I can assure you it hasn’t been spoiled.

Afterwards the game should open directly from steam bypassing the launcher completely, HOWEVER if you want to swap from keyboard to controller (or vice-verser) I think the launcher is the only way to swap between the two so just swap the names of the .exe files back or maybe just boot up the launcher straight from the game's directory.

Hope this has save you the conniptions of trail and error this problem has caused me.
