Widescreen Gaming Forum

I tried the patcher in the downloads at first it said I had to close the game and would never patch it (it wasnt running) and now it wont even let me click patch.

Is there another solution I could use? Some manual instructions perhaps?

Thanks!

I just got KOTOR2 to work using the widescreen solution the other day, so it should work. The only thing I can think of is that you have to select KOTOR2 in the game list, then successfully locate the .exe and apply the patch. If you already got that far, I'm not sure what could be going wrong.

The UniWS patch unfortunately only works on a no-cd (cracked) version of the game's exe.

Check your private messages.

That's unfortunate, I will have to try that out later though. Thanks!

Silly me, I should have remembered that too.
You will end up needing 3 things:
1) universal wide screen fix
2) v1.02 no cd crack (carbon version worked for me)
3) kotor2-16x10 or 16x9 hud fix

It never works for me. Either 1.0 or 1.0b. It works for neither version and I've tried many times. All it does for me is significantly reduces my resolution selection--none of which are the resolution I put in.

I think I also needed to follow the instructions written in this forums post...

It took a few attempts to get it to work.

Step Three
In the root game directory open "swkotor2.ini" with a text editor. Search for the following under the section "[Display Options]"...

Width=****
Height=****

Change "****" to your desired widescreen resolution.

In the same file search for the following under the section "[Graphics Options]"...

Width=****
Height=****

Change "****" to your desired widescreen resolution.

The game should now start in your desired widescreen resolution.

If you are not in your desired resolution when you reach the main menu select the 1280x960 screen resolution from the "Options"/"Graphics"/"Screen Resolution" menu and exit the game. Repeat step three and you should be in your desired widescreen resolution.

I guess the hundredth time is a charm. I got it working using UniWS. You have to edit swkotor2.ini under [Display Options] and [Graphics Options] to your desired resolution BEFORE patching with UniWS. Not doing it before you patch makes it not work for some reason.
