Planescape : Torment in 1680x1050 with Ghostdog's UI mod

This is a short video showing Planescape Torment played in 1680x1050 using Ghostdog's UI mod. This mod is used in conjunction with the widescreen mod to make all resolutions viable for the game.

The Widescreen mod works well in Planescape: Torment, but unfortunately when you change the resolution, almost all of the UI elements and game effects are shown in the top-left area since they were set for the original 640x480 game resolution.

What this mod does is center all of these elements and enhance the UI with original game art to fit nicely with any resolution. Additionally, bigger fonts are available for those with relatively small monitors.

I can understand how it makes the environment look better- but it turns all NPCs into frigg'n dots.

You can't see anything

@GamiCross Dude, if you read the description you would have seen that this mod can be used for all resolutions. If you like the original resolution stick to the original, if you want widescreen or bigger resolutions you can use this mod. This video just demonstrates it for 1680x1050. Oh, and how frigg'n small things look depends on the size of your screen.

@idoru2099

Heh no.

1280 x 800 the smallest widescreen resolution still makes the characters insignificant dots on a 24" monitor.

[idoru2099]

@GamiCross Heh no. The smaller widescreen resolution supported by this mod is 800x480 (original game is at 640x480). Don't blame me if you don't know how to add non-common resolutions to your graphics card control panel.

@drachknor same I think. I prefer the original resolution though

[HandyMan101]

This game is easily in my all time favorite games. This was back when RPG's were truly rpgs.

There is also a direct draw fix that takes care of a lot of the graphical bugs.

[1chuckman1]

is there a way to make the cut scenes not be in a black box?

[Owneador1337]

@GamiCross I'm playing with a 1280x800 and they look great.

[munherpes]

@Ghostbloodman027 nope, quite different with races, classes and such, but If you've played BG there should be no problems adjusting to PT, some similar spells, and still same basic concept but with much more extensive and role-playish dialouges

[munherpes]

@idoru2099 oh SNAP!

[Ghostbloodman027]

Planescape is same as Baldurs Gate on everthing?

On weapons spellls races etc?

It would be great *fun* getting your first wish scroll under this resolution.
