Prerequisites
Make sure to start KOTOR at least once, so your computer can create some files.
After starting the game, close it and open the swconfig.exe file located in the swkotor file.
Make sure to set the resolution to 1280x960 and to turn on V-Sync, then you can apply the settings and close the config menu.

Open the kotor.ini file in the swkotor folder using Notepad.
Scroll down to [Graphics Options] and input your desired resolution in the height and width then save and close out of Notepad.
I am playing on 2560x1440, but here is what the graphics options should look like.
KOTOR Editable Executable
This step is simple.

Open the folder, copy the swkotor.exe found in the folder, then paste and replace the swkotor.exe in your game folder.
UniWS
Open the UniWS folder and run the uniws.exe file.

Select "Star Wars: KOTOR (1280x960 interface)" in the game section.

Either find your game directory manually or press the "Find it for me..." if you are lazy.
I have found that if you have a lot of files on your computer, the automatic finder will sometimes cause UniWS to stop responding so I would suggest finding it manually.

Once you find your game directory, just click on "swkotor" and then you should be looking at something like this:

Change the resolution to whatever one you need then click the "Patch" button.

Once a popup tells you that the game was successfully patched, you are safe to close UniWS.
In-Game Settings
Open the game and navigate to the graphics settings.

Here you need to change your screen resolution to whichever dimensions you have been inputting throughout this process.

You can max out the settings in the advanced graphics options as well.

If you start a new game or load a save file, the UI will not be correct.

Close the game after changing the settings.
KOTOR High Resolution Menus 1.5
Open the k1hrm-1.5 folder.

Copy the two highlighted files and paste them into your KOTOR game directory.

Run the top file and a command prompt will pop up.

Enter your resolution for the first two inputs, then answer "yes" to the dialog letterbox proportions adjusted question, then enter swkotor.exe as the file you wish to patch.

Press yes to the popup, then press any key to close the command prompt.

Open the Override folder and it should be empty.

You can now remove the two files you pasted into your directory.

In the k1hrm-1.5 folder, find your resolution. 1920x1080 and 2560x1440 are both under 16-by-9.

Open the folder that has your resolution name on it, copy, then paste all the files into the Override folder. Make sure the Override folder has a capital O.
HD UI Menu Pack 1.1
Another easy step.

Open the hd_ui_menupack_PV folder.

Open the Override folder then copy and paste the files into the Override folder in your KOTOR game directory.
KOTOR 1 Remasterd (AI Upscaled) Cutscenes
The last step is yet another easy one.

Open the Nexus folder you downloaded with the name of your desired resolution.

Copy, paste, and replace the files in the movies folder in your KOTOR game directory.
Done
You are now good to play KOTOR.

If you are stuck and need help there is a video guide made by YouTuber LinkinForcer.

For anyone having the specific issue with the UI being off-centered after modding:
1. Check your monitor resolution is set exactly to the one you chose during modding.
2. Check if your monitor has any scaling enabled. It should be set to "100%" to match the resolution.

Hope this helps/

I can confirm that these instructions work, and I was able to get my game running in 3440 x 1440.

However, I did have the following issues:

First/

"Copy the two highlighted files and paste them into your KOTOR game directory."

This part of the guide seems to indicate that two files need to be pasted from the mod folder into the game folder, however it does not say which two files. It uses the word "highlighted" - but I could not make any sense of that. What is supposed to be highlighted? It almost seems as if there's supposed to be an accompanying screenshot to indicate the "highlighted" files but there was nothing of the sort.

Eventually I worked it out from reading the PDF that comes with the mod.

I feel this part of the guide needs to be written more clearly, it is very vague.

Second (and I guess this mostly comes down to personal preference) Launching the game in ultra-wide screen with all the UI mods installed makes it look great, however I suffered a noticeable drop in framerate. I could probably have put up with that if not for the other issue I experienced.

The UI, menus, dialogue options etc. are obviously much, much smaller, even if the mod puts them in the right location. It's harder to read the text, but again I could have coped with this if not for the map screen , which is now displayed as a tiny square, almost thumbnail sized.

This proved to be a deal breaker for me, given the importance of the map. I ended up reverting all the changes I'd made and just going back to the non-widescreen vanilla version.

I followed all the instructions but now I cannot see anything in the menu screen

I can't get 4k to work. I am assuming it has something to do with not being able to get 1280x960. I can only get 1280x1024... I was following all the steps above based on the 1280x1024 resolution but all my settings were off.... can anyone explain where I might be going wrong or if there is a way to get the 1280x960?

Thanks!

This is not working for me, the highest resolution I have access to in the base game is 1280x1024, not 1280x960, as well as there being 3 of the same option for each. I'm trying to patch to 1920x1080. In the uniws step I've tried patching for 1280x1024 and 1280x960 interfaces but neither work, they just give me a chunk of the right side of my screen and the rest is black. And sometimes it will load me into the main menu where the patch didn't actually work but I can still select 1920x1080, however it does nothing. I've tried fresh installing, to no avail, I'm stumped.

This worked perfectly for me, thank you! If you're having issues, I'd definitely recommend a clean install. Back up your save just in case. Then, uninstall the game, check the swkotor directory for any loose files lingering, delete those, reinstall the game, make sure there are no custom launch options in Steam, then start this guide from start to finish.

One minor suggestion to OP, I don't see in this guide which files you're referring to in the "KOTOR High Resolution Menus 1.5" section, but I was able to get this from the video, so no worries.
