    The PS:T 1280x800 UI Mod is a User Interface modification which in combination with the bigg's Widescreen Mod makes a 1280x800 widescreen resolution viable for Planescape: Torment by changing a number of things in the UI.

    The Widescreen mod works extremely 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 the 1280x800 resolution.

    Things fixed for a widescreen resolution include many game screens including the Start menu, character creation screens, the journal, inventory, spells and stores among others, as well as a number of other components including the bottom UI bar which has been optimised for a 1280x800 resolution, tooltips and in-game messages (which now display correctly), the dialogue box, and the worldmap.

    The mod is currently in beta, so if you are lucky enough to have a monitor supporting that resolution, visit the links below and try it out!
