Bubbling up from the font of dark knowledge, ndix UR presents KotOR High Resolution Menus, a UI mod package providing full high resolution menu and UI support for Knights of the Old Republic. The tyrrany of 640x480 menus and 6-item lists is over. Normally, when you increase the game's resolution using a widescreen patcher like UniWS, the menus stay very small in the middle of the screen and the borders get larger. This package is designed to be used *after* the widescreen patcher has done its work. It scales the menu screens up so that they fill the screen. This package requires modification of the swkotor.exe file using a supplied patcher, and is only known to work with GoG, 4-CD, and macOS (x86) versions of the game. It should be compatible with any Steam version that uses UniWS. The main content of the package are sets of GUI files (.gui), scaled for specific resolutions. The package contains GUI files for over 30 common resolutions with the following aspect ratios: 4:3, 16:10, 16:9, 21:9, and 32:9. Here is a list of the currently supported resolutions: Installation Find the gui.WxH folder matching your resolution, modify your executable using the supplied patcher, copy the GUI files to your Override/ folder. The details for this process can be found in the package README.pdf file. Read it. Follow the instructions therein. The documentation includes everything you need to know to manually patch your EXE if the patcher does not work for your version. Uninstallation Remove the GUI files, restore the original backed up version of your swkotor.exe file. IMPORTANT NOTES: This is not a resolution hack or widescreen patch, such as you get from using UniWS. You should already be successfully running the game at the resolution you are trying to get menus and UI for. Nothing in this package will give you any additional resolutions available. That is not what this does. If you are trying to get high-res menus for one of the resolutions supported by default (800x600, 1024x768, etc.) there is probably no point to using the GUI files named 'mipc*' provided by this package (mostly the in-game "HUD"), however, this scenario is untested. There are a few of the GUI files in this package you can use without modifying your executable. Here is that 'safe' list, in case you are unable to modify your executable: It gets you the main menu, some dialogs, and the in-game HUD elements. Thanks DarthParametric for testing, contributing a double-clickable thing for Windows users, and prompting me to finally figure out the needed EXE modifications. tk102 for GFF2XML and XML2GFF source code, which made it a lot easier to get this up and running. Known Issues The patcher is currently incredibly limited, making no effort to search for values, only looking at specific locations where they are in the executables I have access to. This package does not contain any higher resolution artwork. At high resolutions, menu backgrounds will be blocky, and the striped list backgrounds are unlikely to line up with list items. For numerous reasons, you will want to get a high resolution menu art package. The game's initial character selection screen does not lay out the selectable characters properly according to GUI file field values. It is useable, but not perfect. The blue hilight borders had to be removed from around the characters to maintain a clean look. The map screen is scaled up, but the map itself is not. Furthermore, the position of the map within the frame is somewhat random/poorly understood. The map, however, is completely useable, and the points of interest and player indicator are all positioned accurately relative to the map. Some of the 3D models in menus, such as on the character stats or character generation screens, display line artifacts over them. This is caused by the very low quality graphics being scaled up to provide the border overlays. Extracting the graphics as TGAs, scaling them up, and placing them into Override/ sometimes solves these problems. This package omits statussummary.gui and dialog.gui. Scaling them up cause problems. The files don't behave as expected, and it seems to not require a customized version in order for them to work as one would want. You might notice 1280x1080 in 21:9 even though it is not 21:9. It is for split-screen on 21:9 monitors. Rescaling the dialog/cut-scene letterbox (which is optional) seems to introduce occasional issues with letterbox placement, particularly when the letterbox animation happens. This may be fixed at some point in the future. There is no scaling on font size, and as far as I know no one has figured out how to do it, so users on TV/couch setups may not find the help they are looking for with this. Upgrading 1.4 to 1.5: If your resolution was not previously supported, copy new .gui files to your Override/ Upgrading 1.3 to 1.4: If you have Polish version, you can run EXE patching process If you have 32:9 display, copy new .gui files to your Override/ Upgrading 1.2 to 1.3: Copy all the .gui files to your Override/ Upgrading 1.1 to 1.2: Repeat the EXE patching process on a backup EXE if you want letterbox scaling Upgrading 1.0 to 1.1: Remove dialog.gui from your Override/ Copy 1.1 pazaakgame.gui to your Override/ -

These are basically High Definition upscaled assets for the first Kotor title. I was inspired by the games original awful stoneage 800x600 artwork and NDIX's groundbreaking work. Mod does not touch every original GUI element, and as such is not yet feature complete. For one, most LOADING SCREENS are still missing HD versions. They will come eventually. My hope is people find these as pleasing of an improvement, as i did. Instructions, such as they are, are in the README. As, this is my first mod, any ideas, suggestion, criticism, repackaging improvemts are highly encouraged. The Mod has been created with 16:9 aspect ratios and 1080/1440p in mind. I shall do my best to fix any potential problems.

This mod aims to fix all* the stretching that occurs in widescreen (16:9) resolutions. There have already been other mods to fix the main HUD, but there are a lot of other elements in the game that are in need of correction, such as the pause menu, galaxy map, loading screens, etc. *For now, I recommend that you download "Widescreen UI Fix for Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords" by Achilles to fix the HUD, and combine it with this mod to un-stretch everything else. I have included my own experimental version of a 16:9 HUD, but right now I think most people would prefer Achilles' version.- 9 comments

ImmersiveHUD (or short iHUD) for Android-KotOR by MilesTeg --------------------------------------------- ===== Description ===== This is a simple, lightweight fix to tone down the very bright HUD. It's especially useful if your device can't handle frame buffer graphic effects (=unable to adjust brigthness). I mostly adjusted the alpha channels to add nearly full transparency (reduce brightness of GUI elements). Additionally, I've adjusted HUD-Elements for dialog scenes. Now, while choosing answers you can see your own player character instead of a huge blue menu blocking the view. Requirenments: You'll need 1 MB additional internal storage How-To Mod your Android-KotOR: https://www.reddit.com/r/kotor/comments/4yvr4z/how_to_mod_your_android_kotor/ ===== Installation & Usage ===== Like every mod for android you simply extract and copy all files from ''iHUD-mod/'' and/or ''/iDialog-mod/'' to ''/Android/data/com.aspyre.swkotor/files/override/'' (if not present, create an override folder). Restart KotOR and enjoy the game Uninstall: Delete files from override. ===== File contents ===== iHUD-mod - mod files for your android-override dir iDialog-mod - mod files for your android-override dir for modders: screens - screenshots + visual info source - extracted sourcefiles (see textfiles) - If anyone wants to fiddle with it.

About This File: Also Noticed I Placed this Within the Sith Lords Mod Section, Looking to Hop it over to Kotor 1 or Delete this one and make a new one. This mod i take no credit whatsoever even though i spent a decent amount of hours editing the files, But once again these were not my files to begin with so credit as been given were it is needed. I am new to the KOTOR Seen and i usually only play my games on three monitors specifically 3 monitors for immersion. This hud fix is decent and makes the game playable in my eyes at 5760x1080 as other huds make my eyes burn and bleed. If i figure out more ways for a better experience 5760x1080 wise trust i will release or tell people about a better version. Used DarthParametric mod desc layout, Hopefully he does not mind. If he does i will spoof it up a bit. Compatibility: With every mod except other resolution HUD overrides. Works with UNIWS and FLAWLESS WIDESCREEN. Install: Place all files within into your overrides folders within Kotor 1. Acknowledgements: Thanks to @DarthParametric for widescreen hud mod, it helps with the edits i did to ndix resolution fixes, how? because it fits it into the screen as before it was the res but was cut on the borders.

Hi, I was wondering if it can be implemented. Since I play with a controller, its a bit messy with the objects/NPC's name as well as the attack actions being in the center of the screen. I managed to move the "COMBAT MODE ENGAGED" graphic, but before I go and tinker through that file (very time consuming)... If I could somehow tell the game to use the X-Box hud, if at all its in the pc files. The reason is that in gui.bif there is a portcust_p.gui, which caught my interest. Maybe I'm wrong but I'm new to KotOR modding

How to completely disable HUD (turn it off)? I mean the ui. Any console command, .ini command or other option? It is possible 'cos videos on YouTube are made with it switched off.
