The DVD-ROM version has the same content as the CD-ROM version.

Essential improvements

Alternate installer

Use Blade Runner Installer 2012 to install the game from CD/DVD on 64-bit Windows. Also download HDFRAMES.DAT from there and copy it to the installation folder.

This automatically installs both the official patch and the "CPU patch".

Official patch

Download the patch for the CD-ROM version or the DVD-ROM version.

CPU patch

Download the CPU patch to fix timing issues with the shooting range and "rat in the tunnel" portions of the game.

After extracting it to the installation folder, see Mouse isn't smooth below to edit its config file for smoother mouse movement.

Issues fixed

Shooting range and rat/tunnel issues

On modern CPUs, shooting range targets never appear or take minutes to. A similar issue occurs with the "rat in the tunnel" portion of the game.

Instructions

Mouse isn't smooth

Save games not working

Instructions

Objects missing in Acts 2 through 4

The installer (even the alternate installer) doesn't copy certain files from Discs 2 through 4, so they're missing when the game looks for them.
