Issues fixed[edit]

Cannot install disc-based copies[edit]

This section details the necessary procedure and workarounds required to install a retail disc-based copy of the game on modern machines.[14]
Note that online will not be functional unless using a LAN/VPN-based workaround (e.g. Hamachi) to create a virtual LAN over the Internet with those you intend to play with.
Install and update Borderlands from a retail disc[14][15]
  1. Ensure that the retail disc is available and ready, and that the game is not currently installed on the computer.
  2. Use the instructions for the Manual Release Date Check tool to generate a proper activation license for the computer.
  3. Now insert the retail disc and go through the installation as usual.
  4. The game should be fully playable after the installation has been completed, given that the disc is legit and is inserted in the disc reader when launching the game.
  5. To update the game to the latest available patch for retail versions, use the Borderlands Worldwide Patch v1.4.1.

Notes

If the activation license had not been generated beforehand the installation process would fail after all files and folders had been copied over, when SecuROM DFADRM tries to perform an online-based check that the release date of the game have passed. Instead of failing on that step, however, the process will just skip it entirely as a valid activation license already exists on the computer.
GOTY owners might want to check out the WaybackMachine archived SecuROM support page for instructions (at the bottom) on how to activate the DLCs manually.

General Protection Fault / R6025 runtime error[edit]

General Protection Fault / R6025 runtime error[citation needed]
Some users are experiencing a General Protection Fault, followed by an R6025 runtime error.
  • One fix is to run Windows Update and install the KB2600217 update also found here.
  • A collection of additional troubleshooting steps can be found on the Steam Users' Forums

Fixing performance issues[edit]

Fixing Performance Issues[citation needed]

Some systems, despite exceeding the recommended specs, simply do not run Borderlands well. How to download movies from watch movies netflix on mac. Even after turning down graphical options, the frame rates can be much lower than would be expected. Taking these steps can help make the game much more responsive and raise frame rates significantly. If Borderlands is running poorly on an otherwise stout system, try the following:

  1. Add -dx9 to the command line (helps fps)
  2. Go to %USERPROFILE%DocumentsMy GamesBorderlandsWillowGameConfig
  3. Open WillowEngine.ini.
  4. Find UseVsync and set it to True (helps with tearing).

Another known issue has been with the inclusion of Dynamic Shadows, for some users having this graphical setting turned on causes huge drops in frame rate, no matter the specs of the computer. Turning off this setting can greatly improve performance.

Progress not being saved[edit]

Progress Not Being Saved[citation needed]
Sometimes Borderlands will not save your progress when you exit. To fix this there are two methods:

First Method:

  • Add -nohomedir to the command line arguments; this is less than ideal as it will start you over from the beginning as it causes the game to create a new save folder.

Second method

  • This fix worked for some people, is to ensure that your SaveData folder (located in %USERPROFILE%DocumentsMy GamesBorderlands) and all its contents are NOT set to Hidden and/or Read Only.

Some weapon stats are not visible[edit]

Weapon stats visibility fix[citation needed]
The default font size allows for only 4 lines of stats to be visible, while weapons can have up to 5 stats.
  1. Locate your Borderlands installation folder.
  2. Go to BorderlandsWillowGameLocalizationINT
  3. Find gd_globals.INT and create a backup copy.
  4. Open gd_globals.INT with a text editor.
  5. Search for:
  6. Replace it with:

Game freezes in Lockdown Palace (General Knoxx DLC)[edit]

Lockdown Palace crash fix[citation needed]
The problem lies with the grass rendering inside the Prison and affects no other part of the game.
  1. Locate your Borderlands installation folder.
  2. Go to BorderlandsWillowGameConfig
  3. Find WillowEngine.ini and create a backup copy.
  4. Open WillowEngine.ini.
  5. Search for:
  6. Replace it with:

Do not alter Foliage Quality within the game settings as that will reset the edit. However, as this problem only affects Lockdown Palace, it is fine to allow it to reset for any game session that you don't plan to go to that zone.

No sound through headphones on laptops[edit]

Some laptop users struggle to make the game sound through headphones when they have laptops with built in microphones.
No Sound through headphones on laptops[citation needed]
  1. Go to the configuration file(s) location.
  2. Open WillowEngine.ini.
  3. Change bHasVoiceEnabled=True to bHasVoiceEnabled=False
Disable Microphone Array[citation needed]

Go to the sound options (Control Panel/Sound and Hardware/Sound) go into the recording tab and disable Microphone Array.

Issues unresolved[edit]

Crashes on startup (Windows XP)[edit]

Some users, after having installed and successfully played the game on Windows XP, experience a standard 'Borderlands has encountered an error and needs to close' message after some time. There are no known solutions for this problem.

Mods[edit]

Borderlands Config Tool[16]

Borderlands Config Tool unlocks a number of settings not available in the in-game menu.
Run the game and change a keybind in the options menu at least once before using this tool. This will create the necessary .ini files and should fix options being disabled in the tool.
This tool unlocks many options including the following:
  • Disable startup movies
  • Disable story introduction movies
  • Disable mouse smoothing
  • Disable in-game voice chat
  • Windowed mode
  • V-sync
  • Change FOV
  • Increase Difficulty (LAN only)

Skip new character movies[edit]

Delete or rename video files[citation needed]
This method disables the unskippable video sequence that plays every time you create a new character.
  1. Go to BorderlandsWillowGameMovies
  2. Delete or rename Prelude.bik, Attract.bik, and VoG_Transition_Movie.bik.

Notes

  1. ↑Automatic release date check service for retail discs of the original Borderlands seems down, but using the manual activation website (leave serial number field empty) along with the manual release date check tool should work.[4] Note that this must be performed before you start the setup / installer of the game. See SecuROM support page for more information, although also note that the Borderlands-specific page does not work any longer, so the generic page (leave serial number field empty) must be used instead.
  2. ↑GOTY DLCs might require manual activation. See SecuROM support page (at the bottom) for more information and instructions.
  3. ↑ 3.03.1File/folder structure within this directory reflects the path(s) listed for Windows and/or Steam game data (use Wine regedit to access Windows registry paths). Games with Steam Cloud support may store data in ~/.steam/steam/userdata//8980/ in addition to or instead of this directory. The app ID (8980) may differ in some cases. Treat backslashes as forward slashes. See the glossary page for details.
