The Ship of Harkinian, the PC port of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, has just received a trio of updates in quick succession. Versions 9.0.3, 9.0.4, and 9.0.5 named Blair Delta, Blair Echo, and Blair Foxtrot respectively bring a mix of new features, randomizer enhancements, and crucial bug fixes.
Here’s a breakdown of each update:
Blair Delta (v9.0.3) – Released July 21, 2025
Blair Delta is the most feature-rich of the three. This update focuses heavily on improving the randomizer mode and making the game more accessible and stable.
Key Additions
- Entrance Shuffle Check: The game now verifies whether entrance shuffle is available in randomizer files, ensuring better compatibility and error handling.
- Skip Feeding Jabu: Players can now skip the Feeding Jabu-Jabu sequence as part of the randomizer options, greatly speeding up runs.
- Cutscene Skips: Several cutscenes can now be skipped, including the Water Temple Dragon cutscene, the castle gate opening sequence, and the trial barrier collapse sequence.
Fixes and Improvements
- Enhanced logic for the item tracker, including hint updates and new translations.
- D-pad UI navigation refinements and adjustable opacity settings.
- Improved handling of OneDrive paths.
- Increased support for custom cosmetic settings.
Blair Echo (v9.0.4) – Released July 21, 2025
Blair Echo is a smaller maintenance update released on the same day as Blair Delta. It focuses on ensuring robust handling of randomizer file versions.
Fixes
- Addressed issues where the game incorrectly validated certain randomizer files.
- Streamlined behavior for legacy randomizer files, reducing the chance of user confusion.
Blair Foxtrot (v9.0.5) – Released July 23, 2025
Just two days after Echo, Blair Foxtrot brings a few more refinements and quality-of-life tweaks, especially for save file detection and audio editing.
Fixes
- Improved detection for vanilla save files, reducing false positives.
- Resolved path handling issues for time split data files used in speedrunning and randomizer tracking.
- Added a play icon in the audio editor UI to clearly show which track is currently playing.
Rapid-Fire Development Cycle
The release of three updates in just three days showcases how fast-paced and community-focused the Ship of Harkinian development team is. With randomizer compatibility becoming a priority and continuous polish being added to core features, it’s clear the project is evolving beyond a simple port into a highly customizable and enhanced Ocarina of Time experience.
If you haven’t updated yet, now’s a great time to jump back in. And if you’re into randomizers, these updates bring even more tools to tailor your next run.
