== Boot parameters ==
If launching ScummVM from command line, you may specify a boot parameter value in the same way as described in [[Boot Params]] section of the wiki. The valid format for the boot parameter is:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
CTTTSSS
</syntaxhighlight>
where:
{| class="wikitable"
|-
| C || Chapter id || an integer value from 1 to 5
|-
| TTT || Set id || a 3-digit value (preceded by zeroes if lower than 100, eg. 004)
|-
| SSS || Scene id || a 3-digit value (preceded by zeroes if lower than 100, eg. 013)
|}
The [[Blade_Runner#Game_rooms|valid combinations of Chapter, Set and Scene ids as well as the scene names can be found here]].
Therefore, an example of launching ScummVM for Blade Runner (target ''bladerunner-win'' in the example below) for Chapter 1, Set 4, Scene 13 would look like the following:
<syntaxhighlight lang="bash">
./scummvm -d0 -b 1004013 bladerunner-win
</syntaxhighlight>
'''Important Notice:''' Direct access to a scene of the game via the above boot parameter method should only be used for testing or debugging purposes. McCoy will spawn in the selected scene with no clues in his KIA, while game flags and variables may have different values than what they would have if the scene was accessed through proper game play. This may lead to unexpected behavior and dead ends. It is not recommended to create save games in this state.
