I hope someone can help me with this.
Thing is i got a new laptop with diferent screen size. To mach the screen size the resolution i have to run nwn is 1366x768 60hz since its the only resolution that ocupies the whole screen, all the others are just a square in the centre of the screen. i used to run the game on 800x600 and all was good.

The problem with this new resolution is that messes up alot of sizes. For example inventory window is now a small one, the combat and party log are also very small and the thing that bothers me most is the slot bar that only takes half of the screen also centered with huge gaps from both sides.

Any idea if thats fixeable and how? I also have to point out that im really terrible with computers :D

Hope someone can help me, thanks :D

That's how the game works with any resolution larger then 800x600. Most things stay the same size, they just leave large gaps in other places. Only real fix I know of would be to go back to 800x600

I'm guessing that there is a way to get any resolution to completely fill the screen. There's an override to play the game in a window and I'm wondering if you've activated this override which is why the game does not occupy the whole screen. Perhaps you could look in the tech section of the forum to see if the override is there? Any resolution should fill the whole screen when the game "window" is maximized :wink:

The nice thing about NWN is that it's very compliant with new and old resolutions.
I run 1680*1050 (16:10) widescreen and I can have up to three windows on the screen at once. I never need to do anything extra for the game to work with it.

I don't need to enable "high resolution font" either.
