Widescreen resolution[edit]

  • By default, Prince of Persia: Warrior Within does not support widescreen resolutions. However, with a bit of modding, this can be changed.
  • This method will cut off parts of the screen visible at 4:3 resolutions as the fov is not adjustable.
  • Requires a cracked executable.

Fix Use Universal Widescreen Patcher.

  1. Download the WideScreen Gaming Forum's (WSGF) Universal Widescreen Patcher (UniWS)
  2. Extract the ZIP file wherever you prefer, and open "uniws.exe"
  3. Under "Game," select "Prince of Persia 2: Warrior Within"
  4. Locate the folder in which POP2.EXE is located (typically, the root folder in which the game has been installed)
    1. NOTE: While you can click on "Find it for me...," this process is quite lengthly (depending on the number of files on your hard drive), and is not recommended
  5. Enter your monitor's screen width and height (in pixels) in the provided boxes
    1. Your monitor's resolution can be found by visiting WhatIsMyScreenResolution.com
  6. Select "Patch"
  7. After changing the resolution, your UI in-game will likely be only partially visible. To change this, find your "Hardware.ini" file for the game (typically located within the root folder in which the game has been installed)
  8. Locate CanStretchRect= (under [CAPS])and verify that it is set to 0
  9. Save and close "Hardware.ini"
  10. Right click on the "Hardware.ini" file, and select "Properties"
  11. Check "Read-Only," and then select "Okay." Now, the game will no longer change the settings you just wrote.
  12. After booting up the game, your new resolution should be found under Graphics settings, and your UI should be visible.
