Can someone post me a link to Nugrud's BG Widescreen GUI? The one on his Polish website has a broken link :( If someone could perhaps upload it onto rapidshare or something?

Are you sure the problem isn't on your end? I can (still) download it just fine.

I could upload it somewhere, but some modders are crazy and I don't know if that applies to this modder, so I'd rather not.

Are there no other download mirrors? What about other sites?

Nope, I checked Spellhold Studios, Gibberlings Three, Pocket Plane Group, pretty much any BG mod site.

Tried any other Web browsers? Works fine for me on Chrome. But I don't believe that's a problem?

Tried it on Chrome, nothing. Tried it on a different computer, nothing. Im thinking it has something to do with the site being polish.Im in Australia if this sheds light on the situation.

Not sure then. Can't help but state the obvious and suggest you play it in one of the supported resolutions. I've always thought it *felt* better that way, but I know, different preferences...



If I stumble across an alternate link or find a way to get you what you need, I will definitely let you know.

Why not just this one from Gibberlings3 instead of a mod from an obscure polish site: www.gibberlings3.net/widescreen/ It's the best choice for most Infinity Engine Games. Read the readme first though, to see if you're version of the game is supported.

Or didn't I understand the question and does that polisch mod do something else than change the resolution so you'll have a widescreen GUI?

Bigg gives even personal support for his mod, there's a forum about it for all kinds of question. Only problem I can think of, the clock often won't display properly: you see the mechanism ticking away in a quadrant, but not the whole clock.

If you pay attention, the topic is about the GUI fix for the widescreen mod, it means to be installed after the G3 wide screen mod because in BG1 it looks very bad in widescreen, with off-centered windows and black areas. The polish mod greatly improves the wide screen mod by centering some of the windows and removes the black areas in the gameplay window. There are some few issues remaining, like loading windows still not centered, and scroll arrows a bit off, but nothing bad.

Also, the installer is in English, once you manage to download it.

I have modified the background image for my personal use, maybe Zed will include it in a future version of the patch.

Download this file
www.mediafire.com/file/7a4bob66wbcqmnp/97WS-GUI.zip

Inside your Baldur's Gate folder you should have a TWM_GUI\\97WS-GUI folder. Copy the downloaded file inside that folder and extract, overwritting the existing files. Then reinstall with Setup-TWM_GUI.

Thanks. Quick question: which first option should I choose. English language or the third?

I have used the first one (English), but if you have a non-English version you should probably use the third.

Nope, it's a new background image for it.

First install it from here:
BG1&WidescreenGUI_beta0,96.rar

Another question: the game keeps crashing while entering an area with the mod (like a house). It doesn't happen with only Widescreen Mod. What's causing it you think?

I have no idea, it doesn't happen to me. Do you have a clean install (custom: full install) and added the mods in the order: wide screen then GUI ?

most CTD (crash to desktops) that happen when you enter an area are due to either the area file being corrupted or a creature file that spawns in that area getting corrupted.  If you open a separate thread in the tech support forum and list specifically which area you're entering when it happens along with which mods you've got, you'll have a better chance of someone helping you identify the issue.

I haven't encountered it since :). Playing it on my laptop now, which is 1280 by 800. It is still to tiny on a 1080 display and I don't like stretching.
