And i installed the newest patch for ToSC but widescreen mod isn't working.

BG1 and PST require a full install.

Can anyone help me?

Your Baldur's Gate 1 installation is not total custom full installation, that is, it doesn't have all the possible files in the game directory, and it needs to be re-installed so it does have them.

 

You do that by first uninstalling the game, then removing all the files left in the former game directory, and then reinstalling the BG1, using the 'Custom' option in the installer, and then you tick all the boxes in the selection menu, and then you install the BG1TotSC using the same 'Custom' option in the installer. Then you install the patch, play the game so it auto-saves, then you install other mods if you want them and then the Widescreen mod at the end.

The full custom installation of the game(BG1+BG1TotSC) will take 2.5Gb+ on the hard drive, but those files are needed in the Widescreen mods made modifications, and by a lot other mods too.
