Essential improvements
This section may require
cleanup to meet basic
quality standards. The specific problem is:
Some of this should probably be moved, due to not applying to the GOG release. You can help by
modifying
the article. The
discussion page may contain useful suggestions.
As of 16 June 2019, the ScummVM engine supports Blade Runner. For more information, see the ScummVM wiki page.
- This method does not require an external installer nor installation of any additional patches.
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.
Peixoto's patch
Peixoto's patch adds nearest neighbor or xBRz scaler
for better visuals. Sets single core affinity and windows 98 compatibility for improved stability

Save games not working
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.
Add HDFRAMES.DAT[citation needed]
|
- Download HDFRAMES.DAT.
- Copy it to the installation folder, overwriting the one there.
