Infinity Engine: High Res Mod
Damn, Infinity Engine will never die.
So, ever wanted to run ANY of the Infinity Engine Games in High-Res's above 800x600?

This mod by The Bigg does it for ALL of the Infinity Engine games -- BG, BG Expansion, BG2, BG2 Expansion, IWD, IWD Expansion, and IWD 2.

Damn, I always wanted PS:T in high-res than what the game offers you, so you can get rid of the pixelation....Too freakin' cool.

The Widescreen Mod allows Planescape:Torment, Baldur's Gate: Tales of the sword Coast, Baldur's Gate II: Shadows of Amn, Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal, Icewind Dale: Heart of Winter and Icewind Dale II to be played at previously unsupported resolutions, like those of widescreen monitors. The project is currently an open beta, and only some engine variants are supported, those these will expand in future releases.

Any resolution is supported, provided that its X axis is greater or equal than 800 and the Y axis is greater or equal to 600.] Fullscreen works for any resolution supported by your graphic card, driver and screen. Otherwise, you can play the game windowed (except in TotSC and Ps:T, where you can't play the game windowed).

Support for SoA is only theoretical - I don't have plain SoA installed. All games version should work, if you are running the latest game patch.

From RockPaperShotgun, an article talking about running PS:T in High-Res.

EDIT, 5-31-2008:
I tried this mod the other night for Planescape. Yeah, Torment looks a lot better w/ this -- pixelation of the game being set in a low res is now gone, thanks to this mod. Runs fine -- yeah, like it always did. Definitely worth installing this thing, if you have some Infinity Engine games that you want to run at a higher res' and whatnot.

Huh... I seriously might have to check that out.  I've wanted to go back to Torment for a long time now.

Now someone needs to do one for Starcraft.  Sure, it would break MP but I want it for SP.
