DX: IW - Is there a tool to get 16:9 ratio and to run on one core?

Hi,

the thread title says it almost all, i'm wondering if there is something like this for Deus Ex Invisible War: (http://kentie.net/article/dxguide/) I stumbled across the Deus Ex Widescreen Utility, which lets you set up a custom resolution, and obviously fixes the stretching too, but i wonder if there's some kind of all-in-one solution, to get the game to run on modern systems too. Say a tool that sets the affinity to one core when the game starts, as Invisible War needs to be run single core. I had something like that for Thief 3 too, so i guess there's something out there?

Hope for your tips. :)

Greets, chk

Ok, kind of found it myself. :)

Here's the instruction to get a custom resolution, and 16:9 ratio: (http://www.wsgf.org/dr/deus-ex-invisible-war)
Texture pack which looks quite amazing from the screenshots: (http://www.moddb.com/mods/john-p/downloads/deus-ex-unified-texture-pack)

After googling, i saw that the command to run DX on one CPU should be like this (example): "c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /C start /affinity 1 notepad.exe" Hope that's correct. :)

Just wanted to report back, that it's working formidable with the solutions posted above. :) Didn't have to set affinity for the .exe file at all, just works like that. Steam version here.
