Well, the topic's title is pretty much self-explanatory, I made a "mod" that makes the user interface look great at 1680x1050, instead of a 800x600 UI floating on the screen.
I'm not a pro so I dont really know how to make something like those high resolution patches where you just open an file put your resolution and voila, so I just made a rar with the modified UI.
To do so I used a .vfs extractor (
http://mor.gstrategy.ru/files/mor_converter.rar ) and extracted UI.vfs, edited each .xml with new positions to make everything stay centered or expanded on a 1680x1050 monitor... well, it is NOT finished yet because there are some things which i dont know what they are in the game so i didnt modify them... so if you wanna make your own UI just edit the lines on the xmls similiar to this "<form name="diary" x="672" y="276" w="336" h="471" script="ui_diary.bin">" for some UI parts change the position on the screen (x/y) and others you chage the size (h/w), just remember that the origin of the coordinates is on the upper left corner of the monitor and they increase while you move left or down, and that the coordinate you set for the part of the UI corresponds to the origin of the image.
Instalation: Unrar the UI folder in the "data" folder inside Pathologic root folder and overwrite the config.ini, the grass was turned off for obvious reasons
Obs: If you feel unconfortable with the default FOV (field of view) you can bind a key to change the FOV automaticaly without using the console, you just have to edit the init.cfg on the data folder and add the following lines:
bindcmd f1 fov 80
bindcmd f2 fov 90
bindcmd f3 fov 100
And you can change between FOVs by pressing F1, F2 and F3 (btw the default fov is 80).
Uninstalation: Just delete the UI folder and change the values of XRes and YRes on config.ini to their original values, or use the Configurarion Utility inside the bin folder.
For the FOV, the game always starts with the defaulf FOV so you'll only have to delete the lines you added on init.cfg
