Skeet1983 1 Posted April 30, 2017 I am hoping you guys can help me. I asked about this on WSGF site, but no response yet. Anyway, I am having trouble with enabling widescreen for Kotor 1:Here is where I am at. I tried uniWS and started game. In game, there is no select-able resolution and in the game ini, there is no height and width. I have the Steam version and reinstalled game. After reinstall and started, there is still no select-able resolution, even with no uniWS patch. Is there anything I can do to fix this? I would like to play game with 1920*1080 resolution. Help GREATLY appreciated Update: Even the game config utility has no select-able resolution, even after fresh re-install on Steam. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skeet1983 1 Posted April 30, 2017 I watched that video, but I am unable to proceed... Even with a fresh install, there is no choice for screen resolution in game, even in the game config utility. In the config utility, it is just an empty box for screen resolution... How can I upload an image here to show you guys? Here it is... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Xuul 224 Posted April 30, 2017 What resolution is your display? Have you launched the game and started a new game at least once? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skeet1983 1 Posted April 30, 2017 What resolution is your display? Have you launched the game and started a new game at least once? My laptop display is 1920*1080. I launched game once, with fresh install. In fresh install launch, I can't select any resolution in game settings. The box for desired resolutions is empty. This is really weird... Game launches in windowed mode. Here is what I see in game. Weird, huh? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kexikus 994 Posted April 30, 2017 What happens when the game is set to fullscreen? Does that give you resolution options? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skeet1983 1 Posted April 30, 2017 How do I set it to fullscreen? In the game .ini file, it says "FullScreen=1" under Graphic Options. Edit: I found this on another site: So I really wanted to re-play this game but it's launching with what appears to be 640x480 resolution in windowed mode. Technically, the game seems to run flawlessly. No crashes or any other problems aside from the ultra-low resolution. Hitting alt-enter makes the game fullscreen but at 640x480 it's pretty much unplayable. So far I have tried: changing the resolution in-game and from the configuration utility - in both cases there are simply no options to choose from. editing the ini and changing fullscreen=1/0, width=1920, allowWindowedMode=1/0, etc against my better judgement I even downloaded the no-cd crack and tried the UniWS mod which supposedly fixes widescreen formats running the game in compatibility mode for XP sp2. disabled DPI scaling updated video card and monitor drivers toggled videos, hardware mouse, vsync If anyone has any advice I would very much appreciate it, will reward with gold. I'm running a gtx 970, Windows 7, 1080p monitor that runs at 120hz. EDIT: the solution was to lower my refresh rate to 60hz in Windows (I suspect kotor supports up to 85hz but no higher). I swapped my displayPort cable for a HDMI and went back to 60hz because my monitor wouldnt go lower than 100hz with the displayPort cable. My problem is, my laptop refresh rate is set to 120hz I believe. I went into Nvidia control panel, but there is no way for me to lower refresh rate. Any help appreciated Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Skeet1983 1 Posted August 20, 2017 Hi guys. I still have an issue with KOTOR 1. My laptop has a 120Hz refresh rate and I am unable to lower it. Also when I start game, it is in a small window and am unable to change resolution, as no resolution options are listed in the game options menu. Has anyone else experienced this and/or know a fix? Any help greatly appreciated Below are link to images:http://imgur.com/Hs87lA0http://imgur.com/iYylkhShttp://imgur.com/E9KHBUghttp://imgur.com/QmxFpKp Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarthParametric 3,777 Posted August 20, 2017 A 120Hz laptop? I am guessing that doesn't just use an integrated GPU. What does it have? Widescreen won't work without patching the EXE. The Steam version can't be patched because the EXE is protected by DRM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skeet1983 1 Posted August 20, 2017 My laptop has an Nvidia GeForce GTX 1070 with 8GB VRAM. I do still have the 4 CD disc version. But have not installed it yet on my laptop. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
olnorton 3 Posted August 23, 2017 Did you get this working Skeet?If you right click on your desktop and select display settings.Then display adapter propertiesIf you click the monitor tab, does it have the option to select 60Hz? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skeet1983 1 Posted August 23, 2017 Unfortunately no, the only select-able option for that is 120Hz Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarthParametric 3,777 Posted August 23, 2017 You don't need to touch the refresh rate of the monitor. The game's profile in the driver should cap the game to 60fps when enabling vsync anyway, but if need be you can always manually set the frame rate cap. That has nothing to do with widescreen though.

Skeet1983 1 Posted August 23, 2017 Ok, but I am unable to select any resolution in-game, none are listed. Has anyone had this happen to them also and/or know fix? I can play Kotor 2 just fine, but not Kotor 1... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DarthParametric 3,777 Posted August 23, 2017 If you have used UniWS to patch the exe then you should just need to set the matching resolution in the ini file. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skeet1983 1 Posted August 23, 2017 If you have used UniWS to patch the exe then you should just need to set the matching resolution in the ini file. Crap, I can't even use UniWS. It found game for me, but am unable to input new resolution... Update: I was abe to patch game, but WSGF said to then change in-game resolution, to select custom res... Nothing is listed... In the .ini file, there is a section for "Graphics Options" with the width, length, and fullscreen, etc. But there is no section for "Display Options". Shouldnt there be a section for that also with resolution settings? I thought res settings were in 2 sections in .ini file... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
