"Kitserver 7 Manual
Version history: history.txt
October 29, 2007 - Kitserver 7.0.0f (BETA)
Module Versions: LOD Mixer 7.0.0
Introduction

Kitserver 7 is an add-on program for Pro Evolution Soccer 2008. It is a loader and manager for various modules.
Currently the following features are implemented:

* Enable up to 4 controllers (for demo)
* Select quality levels which PES doesn't want you to choose
* Any window resolution supported, hidden fullscreen resolutions unlocked
* Manual/Automatic aspect ratio correction.

Installation

As in Kitserver 6, you have to unpack the archive to your PES installation folder and run the setup.exe. What is new is that you can now also select your settings.exe. This is necessary because some changes are only possible in that file. simply select these both files (they should already be preselected) and click "Install". If you choose that you don't want to use Kitserver any longer, run setup.exe again and click "Remove". You can also install/remove Kitserver only for one exe by setting the other one to "no action".
How to use

After installing Kitserver, you are asked if you want to enable all quality levels. In PES2008, Konami doesn't allow you to choose a high quality level if the game thinks your PC isn't good enough for that. If you click on "Yes", that check is removed and you can try if they are right with their assumption. Apart from that you can now choose 4 controllers in the "Controller" tab. That means you can configure your gamepads here and later play with them. Note that by default the keyboard is controller #1. If you setup your gamepad as first controller, you can't play against someone using the keyboard and your gamepad. For that, you shouldn't setup a gamepad as first controller but always as #2, #3 or #4. However you can't use your gamepad in the main menu then, that works only with the first controller.
LOD Mixer configuration

This is the first release of LOD-Mixer for PES2008. Currently two features are implemented: screen resolution , and aspect ratio correction. Both of these can be configured in kitserver main configuration file (kitserver/config.txt).
1. Screen Resolution.

You can set any screen resolution you want, if you play in a Windowed mode. Even crazy screens like 1567x532 will work, but you're likely to suffer from performance problems on such cases. Hidden fullscreen resolutions are fully unlocked now as well. However, only those that your video card really supports in full-screen mode, will work. If you accidently choose an unsupported fullscreen resolution, then PES should still be able to start in a window.

You specify the resolution in config.txt using "screen.width" and "screen.height" settings. Here's an example config fragment for LOD mixer:

[lodmixer]
screen.width = 1920
screen.height = 1200

2. Aspect Ratio.

PES2008 offers only two choices for aspect ratio - 4:3 and 16:9. However, lots of LCD monitors don't exactly fit into either of these two. Often, a 16:10 ratio is used, or even 16:9.6. This results in the picture being distored: players either too fat or too skinny, and ball is not round.

With LOD Mixer, you can set the aspect ratio to whatever you want. Either let LOD Mixer calculate it automatically - from width and height of the resolution that you specify - or set the value manually. Automatic way would work quite accurately, assuming the pixel is square. Sometimes, however, you would want to set it manually. For example, i play on widescreen monitor, but using a 800x600 resolution, because my video card is not powerful enough. The automatic calculation would give 4:3, but since the view is stretched to fill the entire screen, we need to account for that. Setting aspect ratio to 1.6 (which is a natural AR for my laptop) does the trick.
Here are some configuration examples:

Example 1 - we let the game choose resolution, but enforce aspect ratio:

[lodmixer]
screen.aspect-ratio = 1.66666

Example 2 - we set both the resolution and aspect ratio:

[lodmixer]
screen.width = 800
screen.height = 600
screen.aspect-ratio = 1.6

Example 3 - we set the resolution, and rely on automatic aspect ratio:

[lodmixer]
screen.width = 1650
screen.height = 1050
