If you had the actual original UI and forced a full-screen window then it'd simply letterbox the sides like any 4:3 program on a widescreen monitor. I already run P99 that way, anyway, because of how using widescreen resolutions on our client actually reduces the player's field of vision. You have to be careful with those pseudo-classic Ui's because you also need to manually set the viewport for them or else they end up covering half the rendered game screen, which the original UI did not do.
