Star Wars: Episode I – Battle for Naboo – 64-bit Installer With Optional Modern Game Fixes
This is a complete, preservation-grade 64-bit replacement installer for the original 1999 PC release, rebuilt from scratch for modern versions of Windows. This is the definitive way to install and play Star Wars: Episode I – Battle for Naboo on modern hardware, with full widescreen support, DX9 translation, stability fixes (all optional), and resolution unlocking.
The original retail PC release uses a 16-bit Windows installer, which will not run on any 64-bit version of Windows. This makes the game effectively un-installable on modern systems. To preserve the game, the installer was fully rebuilt into a native 64-bit modern version that works on all current Windows versions, requires the original retail disc, recreates the full install logic, and optionally applies modern fixes and enhancements.

UCyborg’s Legacy D3D Resolution Hack
Unlocks modern GPU resolutions including 1080p, 1440p, ultrawide, and full 4K.
Full Folder Permission Repair
Automatically removes read-only attributes, fixes NTFS permissions, allows editing INI files, and prevents write errors.
ChipResolution – Custom Resolution Support
Allows entering resolutions directly, such as:
1920x1080
Suggestion
It seems that the game does not like to go past 1920 x 1080 so just leave the configuration files as they are set up for you. If you change any settings it is done so at your own risk.
Controller Support
Works automatically with no additional configuration needed. The game includes native controller functionality. Rebind controls inside the game’s options menu.
