Comprehensive mod guide written by Johnny Walker for completely best PST experience is here:

Now, GOG version already has steps 1a, 1b and 2 done (incl. all ini tweaks).

So, install the game, then language pack (if you wish) and go to step 3.

NOTE 1 - make sure to start new game. Some mods might not be compatible with earlier savegames, and changing mods midgame is generally not recommended.

NOTE 2 - widescreen mod latest version is 2.6, not 2.5 - obtain it here:

Then follow the rest of the guide.

I followed the guide, and this is the result (using 1900*1200 and czech language pack with 120% fonts enlargement):

and the experience is complete.

It might seem complex, but it is not - took me less than 10 minutes to do it, including the installation.

Addition thanks to Adokat's information: If your character seems to moonwalk (running backwards) go to Display options ingame and turn on "Software Mirroring". It fixes the problem perfectly.

The only issue I have is crashing on exit - nothing important, just annoying. PST seems to want older version of ntdll.dll than what is contained in Win7 64.


Here is one more really huge list of mods/tweaks for further consideration (courtesy of chautemoc) although I have not tested stuff from here myself:

Very nice. Thanks for this buddy!

Thanks so much for posting this. I wasn't sure what was included in the release.

This is a quality guide and I will be using it to get my own installation running optimally. Kudos for the heads-up.

this thread should be sticky, its very useful!

I agree, Thanks Paul_cz!

Haha, I was about to link to that very website when I saw that you'd done it already. To all those on the fence about installing mods: these mods don't impact the vanilla experience. Most of what they do is correct bugs, improve the interface, and re-implement quests that were made by the developers but needed some coding to get working in the game.

The widescreen mod basically requires that you install the the Ghostedog UI mod, too. I highly recommend it. The game looks fantastic-you can navigate the twisted streets easier and get a great sense of the scope of the design and artwork that went into PS:T. Without the mod, the game looks muddy and is difficult to navigate.

I'll be creating a separate topic dealing with graphical issues/bugs.

Indeed - thanks for the link, man.

Thanks for the link. Glad it's already been tested on the GOG version.

Thanks tons, glad to know it's simple and GOG included all the tweaks. :)

Please sticky!

everyone please +1 Paul.


thank you.

Could you also include this link: http://www.bootstrike.com/Torment/files.html ?

Slightly newer version of the widescreen mod + tons of other optional content.

Thanks so much for the links and guide!

(Side-note: This forum is awesome. I've never really been posting in the forums here at GOG, but if this sub-forum is typical of the community here I'm starting to think I've missed out.)

Thanks a ton, but I'm having troubles extracting Ghostdog's UI tweak to my Gog folder. Attached is the error I'm getting. Running Win7 64, using winrar to extract to default gog folder. Not sure what the heck I'm doing wrong.

Edit: I tried creating a folder on the desktop & extracting to there, then moving the contents to the PST folder. Seems to have worked.

Double Edit: Had a problem with the setup, seems running as admin solved that issue.

you need to extract the contents of the file outside the gog folder and then move them into the folder.
