KOTOR 2 TSL Widescreen mod (with bigger fonts0

[DarthSynsyl]

Hello,

currently i am working on widescreen mod (as i didn't found one that fully satisfied me). Its based on other works, but its not simply combination - it has updated graphic elements and most important fonts as this is main issue for bigger resolutions. Bellow you can find screenshots before/after. Please let me know what do you think.

Huh, i thought more people would be interested in such mini-mod (especially because of larger fonts - for me even in 2K playing with original is quite annoying. Anyway I am still working on it.  i was playing a little yesterday and thought that testing Android UI on PC may be interesting. Unfortunately many things seems to be hardcoded there, not handled via .gui files:

I think it is a very interesting mod!

I always refused to play with Widescreen and higher resolution just because of the fonts being too small.

Not much of a TSL player though. If you ever release a version for KotOR I will surely want to give it a try.

Hello again,

I wonder if anyone is interested in this mod with integrated bigger fonts or users rather want to have separated mods - bigger fonts and widescreen GUI? As some parts are dependent - multiple GUI files need to be updated, when using bigger font, in order to avoid missing text display or wrong alignment. I need to consider how to organize files in folder to make installing as easy as possible - as many users have problems even with installing current GUI mods and in this case this would be even harder - due to GUI / font dependency.

Excluding the larger fonts, how does your mod differ from Widescreen UI Fix + Improved Widescreen Experience?

I'd be interested in the bigger fonts, mostly.

I'd definitely be interested in the bigger font's even as a standalone.

As i have mentioned before I am using both of these as base for my work. I have updated alignment of buttons and separators (in both mods many elements positions are "not in line"), updated equipment screen (for ex. compare my screens with c1fcb875edbc957b51bd9c68a17ad9e7-ingame_menu-02-equip_p-wsui.jpg (1280×720) (deadlystream.com)), avatar positions and border size (comparison bellow), replaced some elements with high-res version and do multiple small tweaks. As this is much easier to show than describe I will try to prepare detailed comparison during my free time (original, mod 1, mod 2, my mod).

Regarding bigger fonts,  I am glad to hear that this may be quite popular. I will publish this as standalone as well, but some tweaks in GUI are needed (otherwise text for few buttons is not visible) so this will take some time.
