Text instructions.

1. Buy if you haven't already resident evil 4 on Steam and download it
   
2. By default steam should download the 1.1.0 version (you can verify on the "press any button screen). If you have any other version installed it is recommended to head over the Betas tab on the steam properties and opt-out of any beta version you are in.
   
3. Get the HD project from the links at the Download Links section of this guide
   
4. Unpack the downloaded file. You’ll find 2 folders: ‘Bin32’ and ‘BIO4’.
   
5. Find your game installation path. The usual path is:
   C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Resident Evil 4
   If you modified it you can head over the steam properties > Local Files > Browse... and a File browser window will open with the directory of the installation.
   
6. Inside this folder, you’ll see the original ‘BIO4’ and ‘Bin32’ subfolders.
   
7. Go to the downloaded ‘Bin32’ folder. Copy its contents and paste it inside the original ‘Bin32’ folder.
   
8. Delete the original ‘BIO4’ folder.
   
9. Copy the downloaded ‘BIO4’ folder and paste it in the ‘Resident Evil 4’ folder. DON’T OVERWRITE IT. DELETE THE ORIGINAL FIRST.
   
10. Run the game. You’ll get a message that will warn you about the EXE file not being patched with the 4GBpatch. Click on “YES” to patch the EXE and restart the game.

And that’s it! You can run the game with all of the HD project improvements.

Don’t forget to read the “README” file inside the Bin32 folder! You’ll find out about new features and improvements that our colleagues “nipkow” and “emoose” have integrated to the game!


Based on feedback and visual bugs people find, there will be future patches that correct these issues. If some major issue is found, an immediate patch will be released.

My personal recommendation is to use the torrent links due to the file size. A good torrent clients is qtorrent [www.qbittorrent.org]

Direct download: Mega | MediaFire | NexusMods[www.nexusmods.com]
(Steam does not permit Mega or Media File links please head over the official website[www.re4hd.com] if you need to download them from there)

Regardless of whether you are downloading from Mega, MediaFire, or NexusMods, the files are the same. This means that you can combine parts downloaded from different sites. (This is useful if you reach some kind of download limitation for one site, and you want to download the rest from another site.) Uncompressed file size: 37,4 GB

Torrent links: Mirror 1 and 2 can be found on the official website right here[www.re4hd.com]| Mirror 3[drive.google.com]

If you are using the torrent method please do seed the files so the download will be faster for anyone wanting to download them as well.
