'''''Note 1:''''' Instead of using the four CDFRAMES.DAT files independently, you can use the [[User Manual/Appendix: Tools#pack%20bladerunner|Blade Runner HDFRAMES packing tool]] to create '''''a single HDFRAMES.DAT file'''''. | |||
'''''Note 2:''''' The original installer for the game would also create a small HDFRAMES.DAT file within the game's installation folder. That file is '''''not''''' the same as the one required to run the game with ScummVM. If you have this file in your installation folder, please delete it as it will probably confuse the ScummVM engine. Also, in general, '''''it is not recommended to use the original game's installer to acquire the required data files'''''. Simply '''''copy''''' the files from each CD as per the instructions above. | |||
Note: | '''''Note 3:''''' For the DVD version of the game the process is very similar. The files from each CD are within folders, each named accordingly ie. "CD1", "CD2", "CD3", "CD4", along with the "base" folder which also contains some required files as detailed above. All these folders are located directly in the root folder of the DVD, ie. the folder that opens up once the user choses to browse the DVD. | ||

ScummVM offers a semi-automated process to pack a localized transcript from an Excel file (of appropriate structure) into a SUBTITLES.MIX file. This process, along with usage instructions for the ScummVM developer tools involved, is described in detail in this [https://github.com/scummvm/scummvm/tree/master/devtools/create_bladerunner/subtitles ScummVM GitHub page] readme. | ScummVM offers a semi-automated process to pack a localized transcript from an Excel file (of appropriate structure) into a SUBTITLES.MIX file.
