I'm surprised you went to all that trouble, yet didn't bother to read either the game info page or the hacks for KOTOR page.

It is stated on both those pages, and in this thread, that 1360/1366x768 has the missing text issue and this is not fixed by the HUD edit. The only solution is to setup a higher custom resolution and use video card scaling to downscale to your native resolution. This is why files for the non-standard resolution 1530x864 are provided. 1530x864 is a relatively uniform 1/8 res increase and looks decent when downscaled to 1360x768.

For instructions on how to setup a custom resolution in your video card drivers, search for threads on that topic.

You need to start with learning how to add custom resolutions for non-native aspect ratios. This is the official thread but it is a mess.

I suggest you simply start a thread in tech support and give your system info and see if they can help you.

After that, you can come back and try your luck with a pillarboxed KOTOR or try downscaling using the 1360x768 method.

Hi,

my laptop has a pretty sucky screen with 1280x800 native res. I installed the game, patched it with uniws and picked the 1440x900 res. I wanted then to downscale it with my video card to 1280x800 but the problem is the 1440x900 resolution does not appear in game and thus, I cannot select it. I tried different stuff, adding custom resolution in nvidia control panel (both for 32 and 16 bit) but nothing seems to work.

Oh and my video card is GF8600GS. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Note that first you must be able to run 1440x900 so you will need to setup that as a custom resolution for your video card first.

After that, if the resolution does not appear in the game's menu it's usually an indicator that the UniWS modification was not applied correctly. I'd first try undoing and redoing the UniWS patch.

If you sure the patch applied correctly, but the option still isn't visible in the game's menu, you should be able to manually set it in the game's config file.

I can't recall exactly where it resides, but just search under your KOTOR install directory for a .ini or .cfg file. Open it up and it should be obvious where the resolution is set. Change it to 1440x900 there.

Long shot question here I know. Is there a solution or a way to hack Widescreen Support for the MAC version of KOTOR? Thanks!

This should really go in the Request/Disucss Solutions forum, but then again so should the last 11 pages, so might as well...

The edited HUD and background files should presumably work without modification (though meaningless of course if you can't hack in the widescreen to being with) However, UniWS will not.

Your best bet would be to get a Mac hex editor (just search, there are several free ones available) and follow the hex editing guide on the first page of this thread. More than likely the Mac version code is different enough that you unfortunately won't be able to match the hex strings, but you never know, it's worth a shot.
