Howdy-hey, everybody!

I realize that this question may have been asked time and again, but once more wouldn't hurt, right?

Anyway, I've been trying to install all the mods for PS:T to help make it run smoother, and I've only gotten to install the Widescreen Mod. When I try to run GhostDog's UI Mod, I get the following:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------

I've spent the better part of an hour looking for a fix to this problem, with no success. I've tried changing the name of setup-widescreen.exe to the Ghostdog Ui exe, moving the contents of the newly created GhostDog's-PST-UI folder out into the main install folder, and uninstalling and reinstalling both PS:T and the widescreen mod, all to no avail. Again, I have only installed Bigg's Widescreen Mod. I'm going in the order suggested by the mod showcase for this game

I'd really like to find out what wrong and how this issue can be fixed. I'm absolutely stumped, since I'm pretty new to using mods to enhance my game :P If that doesn't work, I can stomach the admittedly dated graphics and the few bugs that are bound to show up.

Thank you all in advance for any and all advice! :)

Where is your game installed to? Do NOT install it to Program Files.

The mod should be extracted to the main installation folder so that it's installer runs from there, like so:

[****FOLDER****]
<install path>\Planescape Torment\GhostDog's-PST-UI\

[***TWO FILES***]
<install path>\Planescape Torment\Setup-GhostDog's-PST-UI.exe
<install path>\Planescape Torment\Setup-GhostDog's-PST-UI.tp2

In other words, the two files above must be in the same folder as Torment.exe, and NOT inside of Program Files.

I don't have the game installed on Program Files. Its file location on my laptop is C:\GOG Games\Planescape Torment. Both of the files are in the same folder as torment.exe, and there is a folder called GhostDog's-PST-UI.
