The Original Saga and widescreen

[Guest Oldschool]

First of all, I'd like to congratulate creators of this great mod. You did a great job!

And the second, I have a problem installing widescreen on BG:The Original Saga.

Here is my SETUP-WIDESCREEN.DEBUG:

Maybe someone knows solution to this problem? Is this mod compatible with Saga?

Usually I'm playing BG1 compilation on DVD + ToTSC CD + latest patch, but this time decided to try Saga and faced this problem.

The Widescreen patch is intended for version 1.3.5512 of the executable. If I'm not mistaken, The Original Saga uses 1.3.5521 (same as DirectX 8 patch). Since you have the DVD+TotSC version, use it and patch to 1.3.5512. Do not use the DirectX 8 patch.

Ok, thanks for the answer.

I'll try this later.

Tested widescreen mod on Planescape:Torment in 1024x768 and 1280x1024 - everything works seamlessly.
