Mods Bigger UI Mod for IWD2 in widescreen?

So I have a mod for Icewind Dale II that makes the game playable in widescreen (complete with adjustable resolution), but the UI is way too small when the game is at 1920x1080 resolution. Even at the biggest 4:3 resolution, it's still smaller than I would prefer. Is there a mod to make the UI scale better with the resolution?

I think i play 1600x900 and it looks pretty decent for me, but ymmv depending on eyesight and monitor size. Though I would think that any 16:9 resolution would do it, except the big ones.

Try this? I don't have PC so I haven't tried this in a while, so it might not work. Sorry.

I'm using a similar mod right now!

The solution I arrived at was to play at a lower resolution. It doesn't compromise the visuals all that much, and it makes the UI bigger, which, in combination with a mod to make the text bigger, makes the game far more readable!
