Notes:
+
=== [[Widescreen resolution]] ===
* Running the game in widescreen mode will cause the HUD, menus and aiming crosshair to appear horizontally stretched.  
+
{{Fixbox|1=
* Your arms may occasionally appear to be floating in midair when using the lightsaber or Force powers in first-person view.
+
{{Fixbox/fix|Running a game in widescreen resolution}}
* When widescreen resolution is enabled, there is no screenshot and progress bar during loading. There is solid white screen instead. Company logos at game start are shown in same manner.
+
# Start a game.
 +
# Open up console, by pressing <code>Shift</code>+<code>~</code>
 +
# Type in: <code>r_customwidth X</code>, where X is width of your desired resolution (for example, for 1680x1050 resolution, replace X with 1680).
 +
# Now, type in: <code>r_customheight Y</code>, where Y is height of your desired resolution (for example, for 1680x1050 resolution, replace Y with 1050).
 +
# Type in: <code>r_mode -1</code> to make the game use custom resolutions.
 +
# Type in <code>vid_restart</code> to restart the renderer and apply new resolution settings.
 +
# The last step is changing the FOV. To do it, either load a game or start a new game. When the map is loaded, open the console and type in <code>cg_fov X</code>, where X is your horizontal FOV value. Default FOV for 4:3 resolution is 80, therefore a value recommended for 16:9 resolutions is 97. Value recommended for 16:10 resolutions is 90.
