At that time, the new studio was a shoestring operation with just seven veteran developers who had made the move from the recently shuttered Black Isle Studios, all holed up in CEO Feargus Urquhart’s attic. Internal scaling in addition to the 8xMSAA the game provides to 3x3 the x and y resolutions shrunk back to 1280x960 produces a good looking image, but it's nowhere near as crisp as my monitor's native resolution would be with less SSAA (still some though the in-game 8xMSAA is actually really good, it isn't perfect, and with how old these games are, it's no stress on even decent price:performance cards to run them beyond maxed with third-party tools to beautify things a bit).Released on December 6, 2004, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic 2: The Sith Lords (KOTOR2) was the first game from the then newly formed Obsidian Entertainment.

I'll go through this little bit of trouble because the game does, even after all that, look better at native resolution than it does with all the SSAA in the world piled on at sub-native scaled by the graphics card. Probably going to change now, especially since this will be my first playthrough with the TSL restored content mod :) The GPU can scale it, preserving aspect ratio, with whatever extras you like all present and accounted for, so I let it. Aspect ratio not preserved.Ī very thick Star Wars universe remains totally playable, but as for my preferences I use Flawless Widescreen for KOTOR the first, and just run at as high of an in-game resolution as possible for KOTOR II before it clicks over and goes into widescreen mode. They 'work' in Widescreen for me, as well, in that the engine kind of doesn't know what to properly do with non-4:3 or 5:4 resolutions and so it coughs out something that's sufficient and fills the borders internally but circles aren't circles and proportions are all off.
