Didn't distract at all. :) Thanks for your help.

My copy is going to be here in the next half hour. I hope it installs okay, I'm a tech moron.

Get that installer. It'll be perfect with that and that HD patch on the same page.

That link isn't working. I guess I could Google it.

http://www.replaying.de/blade-runner/blade-runner-patch-windows-vista-7-8-x64/ here, have to sign up and the page is in german but it will work. And make sure to get the HD frames patch and extract it into your game folder.

I had to register, that was the problem. Would it kill me to actually read these posts before registering complaints!? :P

I wish the game would come to GOG, but Ridley Scott probably wants billions for the license even though his movies have been crap lately and he's even talking of a sequel that ties into Prometheus...ugh.

If you want to play Dune 2000 hassle free under a new system and free of charge, look no further... There is a fan remake that is very close to the original, also including C&C and C&C Red Alert. Oh, did I mention the functioning multiplayer mode for all of the three?

Is this absolutely legal? I assume it is because I've got a few other good fan remakes on my OS that are legit and really nice games (Lemmins). My only concern is that Dune 2000 is easily one of the most pirated games on the internet.

Damn near through my new playthrough of blade runner.

Got it all installed without a hitch last night. The only problem is I'm on a major blasting binge right now (lots of Postal and Zombie Shooter). Needless to say I'm going to have to wait a bit before I dive into a game that requires actual thought.

Hell yeah. Don't need your discs after that install either. I also like the game is sort of randomized, characters can be replicants in one playthrough and not be in the next playthrough.

I assume it is, since it is free to play and the Westwood originals are free to play, too (except Dune?). Did I mention that you can play it in higher resolutions than the original?

BTT: I think I might install my old Blade Runer game tonight. I'm writing a term paper about the film right now anyway. I'll report back.

If that is the case I owe you big my friend. :D I would love a good looking playable Dune 2000 that won't get my ass in trouble. I love that game but not much has been done to make it run smoother on newer systems. When I bought BR last week I had the option of getting it alone or getting a box of it and Dune 2000 but every site I found said unlike BR there are no good installers or patches to help get Dune working.

That link is nice but I hit a few snags. It's only an online game that doesn't give you the original scenarios but rather sets you up with a list of currently open maps.

Second, it only seems to work for Red Alert. There is mention of TW and Dune there but no downloads or links.

Lastly, it needed my RA disc (which I happen to have) just to install it.

EDIT
Okay I got it working without needing the disc but it still is just skirmish which is great for online gamers. Dorks like myself might want to pass though I will say it looks and sounds amazing. I wish I could make my original RA game look that good.
