Star Wars: Knights of the old Republic

This has probably been common knowledge for a whilye but it's working on Windows 10 and with Flawless Widescreen allowing for resolutions higher than 1600x1200, it's awesome!

I'm playing at 1440p, no mods, no texture packs and with all in game settings max, mouse and keyboard and it's simply superb, it's aged really well!

The flawless widescreen profile can be a pain, you have to try multiple times to get it working but it works.

Thought I'd just let people know as I feel it's a bit of a stale time in gaming as most triple A titles are either borked or just not that good.

I've gone for a scout, will probably go for Sith Lord, however, my dark side just isn't there when playing these types of games, I like to help people out lol

That's SWTOR, believe the OP is talking about the original single player RPG games

Correct, the Bioware game that came out on the original xbox (long time ago!).

 

[agnes]

Yea, read about that method, the FW fix does the HUD as well, looks epic for it's age.

As for dark side, I've tried a couple of times, but I just feel terrible haha.

I've always played a melee class, so will 100% be going for master/lord this time for the powers.

One of my favourite games

Would be nice if it could be patched for higher resolutions and game pad support, as KotOR 2 was about a year ago

I know The guy who did it has flat out said he's simply not going to do it.

But, it works really well on KB and mouse!

 

[agnes]

Shame, didn't know that!

Good to hear it works with flawless widescreen though, tempted to install it

Always wanted to do a Jedi Consular play through

What ever you do, don't be deterred by FW when it doesn't work, it's super annoying. I've had to put in windowed mode and then you run the game like below in the youtube vid until it injects properly.

My ini files graphic options, find this in steam\steamapps\common\swkotor\swkotor.ini :

[Graphics Options]
RefreshRate=60
Height=1440
Width=2560
V-Sync=1
Anisotropy=16
Frame Buffer=1
Anti Aliasing=8
Texture Quality=2
Emitters=1
Grass=1
Soft Shadows=1
Shadows=1
Brightness=57
EnableHardwareMouse=1
[COLOR="red"]FullScreen=0[/COLOR]
Disable Vertex Buffer Objects=1
[COLOR="Red"]AllowWindowedMode=1[/COLOR]

Those in red is what I've amended and added. Once FW injects properly, it will run in windowed, just hit alt+enter to go into fullscreen.

Here is the youtube vid:

1440p goodness. It's a game that has atmosphere over looks

Finding it real tough to be mean, just handed the serum over to the hutt I've done some nice deeds already so I'm a few points into the light side. But no more mister nice guy.

I will, I WILL be a Sith Lord

 

[agnes]

Wait, so why would you stay to level 2? I guess due to skill points etc? I am a 'completionist', so I am probably level 5 or so now.

Not done the last fight in the ring, might cheese it with nades when before I head into the sewers.

 

[agnes]

Well, made it to the Jedi enclave, chose Consular as a class. Still rocking armour and vibroblades simply as a bog standard saber isn't that powerful and I can't use my powers without robes or basic clothes which I don't have yet.

25 hours so far! Exploring every single nook and cranny.

Loving it Absolutely loving it.
