TestType, did you verify that you saved your change in the ini? Did you test with fullscreen=0 and other standard res like, 800x600?

Yes, I saved for sure and I've now tried it with the normal resolutions and it still won't play in a window :(

TestType, did you edit under [Graphic Options] because there is also [Display Options]?

Yes, I edited under graphics options. I have no idea why it doesn't just work. Here's how my graphics options part of the ini looks:

[Graphics Options]
Grass=1
Shadows=1
EnableHardwareMouse=1
FullScreen=0
AllowSoftShadows=1
RefreshRate=60
Width=1024
Height=768
V-Sync=1
Texture Quality=2
Anti Aliasing=0
Emitters=1
Anisotropy=1
Frame Buffer=1
Soft Shadows=0
Brightness=57

Testtype, what's your OS video res, and adapter/driver? Try these if you haven't

backup your swkotor2.ini
delete the active swkotor2.ini
re-configure graphic in kotor2 with 800x600
edit the new swkotor2.ini to fullscreen=0
if that still doesn't work then
update your driver and/or re-install the game

good luck

My OS res is 1280x800 and I'm using the stock drivers that came with my ASUS M6BNe laptop (ATi Mobility Radeon 9700 64mb).

I tried deleting the ini and configuring it for 800x600, still didn't work. I'll try re-installing the game and/or finding modded drivers for the mobility card when I have a bit more time on my hands. Thanks much for all your help wickedwings.

i havent been able to get this to work in widescreen either!!! has anyone cracked it yet?

I don't believe 1280x800 will work. An 800 vertical resolution is not supported by this game. 1024x600, 1280x600, 1280x768, 1600x768, and 1600x1024 should all work. I've only tested 1280x768 and 1600x1024 though, as the other resolutions are impractical. In order for this to work the game has to support both the horizontal and the vertical resolution. You also do not have to run this game in windowed mode if you simply follow the guide.

UObean:
Ihave tried your technique of creating a custom desktop, but when adding the resolution 1600*1024 it just says it cant be done.
Also tried playing around with that ini file, but with no luck...


Any ideas?

What are your system specs?

What video card, monitor, and drivers are you using?

Its a MSI Geforce 4 Ti 4200 64MB, Dell 2005FPW, and 65.73 Nvidia drivers
