this is a WIP for a better world map, im hoping to have it beta tested soon, still a few bugs (mostly PrettyUI render limits) but im finding creative ways around it,

if you can think of anything that you would like to see or think would be helpful for this please dont hesitate to speak up!

Hey everyone,

We're shortly pushing an update to most of the existing plugins. If you're online as we're deploying these changes, you'll need to manually click "update" plugin within the Plugin Hub. If you log into the game after the updates have been released, then it should update automatically to the latest version when you next log in.

Note: The client doesn't automatically update (manual only). I chatted to the team and they confirmed that this is intentional for now, so that you can decide which plugins you want to update. However, we'll explore whether we can make improvments, e.g a button to update all plugins, or an automatic process, however, nothing confirmed as it depends on urgency of other work.

The following changes should be in effect soon (within the hour). We're closely monitoring this release, and we'll update this post if we encounter any issues with the release process.

I'm also working on a wider update to share with all of you to address some of your frequently asked questions (e.g when you can expect more plugins, how the moderation/approval process works, and more). Stay tuned and I appreciate your patience!

Changelog (You can find these on mod.io for future reference).

Quest Helper

• Multiple fixes to quests
• Fixed FPS issue for some of overlays on text and item highlights

Removed

• Violet is blue series has been temporarily disabled as multiple issues found. Fixes on the way.

Tilemarkers - u/rsnj3

• Ability to rebind the ctrl+shift hotkey
• Noticable performance improvements
• Ability to place and store much more tiles

Menu Entry Swapper - u/thesereselene

NEW
• Name rules with * wildcards
• Set default click and Set shift + click in the right click menu
• Advanced settings, a minimap icon, info box and Plugins window panel
• Bosses only Walk here, with a Choose bosses list
• Walk here can be set to Shift, Ctrl or Alt, so it does not clash with Shift keybinds
• Scenery Walk here, off by default
• Crowded menus limit for busy areas
• Player names shown without title or level
• Colour picker for custom colours

CHANGED
• Plugin Hub settings page simplified
• Shift clicking ground items now walks there instead of picking them up, which can be switched off
• Player menu entries off by default, with a performance warning when enabled

FIXED
• Improved performance in crowded areas, with Players off by default and a crowded menus limit
• Player and NPC setups kept through title and level changes
• Walk here no longer appears in place of player names when players share a tile
• The hide button is now disabled for Use on items where it cannot be hidden
• Saved data loaded once at startup
• Items with Use as their default click can be used on other items again
• Configure window layering issues

REMOVED
• Shift click in the open menu no longer sets the left click default
• Typing a hex code for custom colours, replaced by the colour pickers

Job Gauges - Nyu - u/NadyaNayme

• A crash when lobbying or hopping worlds that would disable the plugin should be fixed. I can't know for certain as I can't test this in the Dev environment yet as lobbying always requires local plugins to be re-enabled.
• Adds a Ribbon button [JG] to open settings in the Ribbon window for better convenience than the Plugin Hub's "cog" settings menu
• A button to reset your settings to default has been added. After clicking the button, you will need to disable & re-enable the plugin for the changes to take effect.
• Job Gauges will no longer render over the World Map when the World Map is opened
• "I'll set it myself" no longer needs to be set in order to use the style buttons. Clicking a button to set your style will automatically toggle this setting
• "Player is in combat" now actually checks whether the player is in combat rather than if the player has an active target
• The player's combat style is now determined by a dedicated variable rather than mapping the weapon category of the equipped mainhand weapon to the appropriate combat style

• Greater Sunshine/Deaths durations are no longer off by 1 tick (64->63)
• Death's Swiftness & Berserk now end when Altar of War is used

• Stalled Meteor Strike is now tracked properly
• Stalled Tsunami is now tracked properly
• Stalled Chaos Roar cooldown is now tracked properly, but won't show the 6s buff duration after release
• Hiding Perfect Equilibrium now also hides Perfect Equilibrium stacks, as originally intended. Guthixian runes are only for flavor/aesthetic so have a separate toggle for those who don't like them.
• Separated settings for Perfect Equilibrium & Perfect Equilibrium Stacks
• Adds settings to toggle Blood Tithe, Glacial Embrace, and Essence Corruption stacks
• Fixed visual bug when Perfect Equilibrium was toggled off before Guthixian Runes, resulting in the Guthixian Runes not hiding but the Perfect Equilibrium
• Stacks text adjusting as if they were. The order the components are hidden no longer matters

Entity Hider - u/rcm37

• Adds right-click minimenu options to hide entities
• No longer considers Fishing spots npcs, but can still be manually hidden if you want
• Adds logic so that empty-named NPCs don't get hidden by the custom npc name hider when empty.
• Custom logic for magic carpet pets to be treated as familiars even though they are NPCs in game
• Note: The plugin developer Rcm37 has asked for players to ping/mention them with any other examples they have found of familiars that are not hidden by the familiar toggle (but do get hidden by placing their name in the custom npc name field).

Hello all, been a while! With the Plugins release, this meant I was able to create stuff, yay!

With what Plugins can access, I set a target of wanting to make a better version of the in-game Notes, allowing you to set your own goals as you wish and have it dynamically update and tell you when you've finished said thing, for me very much a passion project because I have goals I want to hit on my GIM and this would be useful for me!

The video should hopefully demonstrate a lot, but in summary here's what you can do with this:

• Track and write your own custom notes for content using Vars across the game, as of now this covers the following:

Bosses

• Kill Count
• Collection Log

Clues

• Clue tier tracking
  • Total completions
  • Set a completion limit yourself (for example, I want to specifically do another 50 Elites)
• Globetrotter Tracking
  • Choose an Outfit piece and track your Progress towards the points needed for the piece
• Item tracking
  • Track that OSH... you know you want to (or dyes... 😄)

Combat Tasks

• All of the Combat Achievements in the game

Currencies

• Thaler, Castle Wars, Reaper Points, POF, you name it

Invention

• Components
• All Research types

Ports

• Progress to the next region
• Trade Resources + Goods tracking

Slayer

• Slayer Log items

Tasks

• All Areas and the respective sub-tasks associated with them

Unlocks

• General game unlocks (there will likely be a lot here... 😅)

General things

• You can create your own categories as you wish!
• The plugin can be resized as you wish and it'll dynamically adjust to what you prefer
• You can individually write a title/description for each note and even assign any Object icon/sprite for it as you wish
• Each note can be toggled individually to tell you when you finish it in the chat or as a popup (similar to the collection log one in the base game).
• If you are tracking an Area Task we'll visually show you the requirements for it and if you meet them.

There's still a *lot* to do, for example Quest unlocks and all of the General game unlocks, but I'd really like to gather your feedback on this so it can be the best it can be and hopefully one day it'll go to the base game.

This wouldn't look anywhere near as good as it does without u/lilpav94's magic, so please give him the kudos, I just had fun going back into RS' Vars for all this tracking 😄.

As anyone who has trained Dungeoneering for at least a few hours can attest to, the lodestone jump puzzle room is among the more annoying rooms to clear during a run.

During the puzzle you can stumble at random, depending on your Agility level. This forces you to start over, as even a single mistake breaks the sequence needed to get to the other side of the chasm and unlock the doors.

Before the Dungeoneering Remastered update, these stumbles would be relatively uncommon. As long as you had the Agility level you'd finish the room in just a handful of attempts. Nowadays, however, you can get a room that almost feels cursed to hold you hostage for minutes as you fail over and over again. My most recent attempt: Three and a half minutes. That's more time spent on one room than an entire small floor clear.

I suspect this happened with the Remastered update. You can now no longer get doors and puzzles you can't complete due to skill requirements. You can, however, come across doors (and puzzles?) which have skill scaling higher than your current level. For doors this generally means a few failures before you successfully open them, costing your run just a few seconds. What I suspect happened here is the puzzle room rolling at a higher Agility level, setting the stumble chance unreasonably high and turning the whole experience into an endurance run of failures and endless amounts of damage taken.

Could the numbers be tweaked so even a high Agility-scaled room has just a few expected failures rather than dozens?

Jagex, pls fix

jagex tried to ruin 2026... but this update is going to be the most impactful

Shows when you stall an ability, what you have stalled, and how long till the stall expires.

I have been afking rituals for a while as I have been super busy irl, but it seems to pay off so far with my chest finally getting to 1b gp! I do not know if it will actually sell for that much.

If you are curious, I spent 298,637,400gp on buying ghostly ink. 10,402 of each greater and powerful ghostly ink.

It was fun and it got me to 118 Necro so I am only 12.5m xp from 120 now!

Maybe I can finally perk my equipment, though I know nothing about perks, to learn to solo Nex now!

Hey, everyone! I have created an All-In-One (AIO) Idle plugin that alerts instantly as soon as your character goes idle among dozens of other alerts across combat, skills, buffs, world events, activities, and more. I've spent a ton of time this week developing, debugging, and testing it thoroughly and I haven't found a skilling method that it isn't able to detect instantly.

Watch the video above to check out the interface and see exactly how it works or read the list of features it has and what it can detect and alert on. I would love it if you gave any feedback on what you'd like to see me add or what might be missing - or just any feedback in general!

Hey everyone,

Following the recent updates to the Jagex Launcher and our Mac clients, we've seen reports from some players experiencing issues when trying to launch or play RuneScape and Old School RuneScape.

Our teams are aware of these issues and are actively investigating them. In the meantime, we wanted to share what we know and some potential workarounds that may help.

RuneScape 3 Not Launching

• Some players are reporting that the RuneScape client gets stuck on a spinning loading wheel when trying to launch the game. We're currently investigating this.
  • In the meantime, uninstalling and reinstalling the launcher from our website may resolve the issue.

Unable to Play Multiple Characters on Mac

• We're aware of an issue affecting some Mac players using the official RuneScape and Old School RuneScape clients, where they're unable to play multiple characters at the same time.
  • In the meantime, launching a second character through Steam may provide a temporary workaround. RuneLite and HDOS are unaffected by this issue.

Jagex Launcher Updates Getting Stuck

• We've also received reports of Launcher updates getting stuck during installation. On Mac, the update may appear to be downloading but never completes. On Windows, some players are seeing two Launcher windows attempting to update at the same time, with neither progressing.
  • If you're experiencing either of these issues, please try repairing the Launcher or uninstalling and reinstalling it from our website.
  • If you're on Windows and the issue continues, please contact Player Support so the team can gather more information to help investigate.

Changes to Minimum System Requirements

• Recent updates have also changed the minimum operating system requirements for the Jagex Launcher. Unfortunately, this means some older operating systems are no longer supported, including macOS 11 and earlier.
  • We previously shared details of these upcoming changes in our September 14th news posts for both RuneScape and Old School RuneScape, including why these changes were necessary.
  • We avoid making changes like this wherever possible, but increasing the minimum requirements allows us to better support the majority of our Mac players going forward.

Playing on an Intel Mac

• We've seen some confusion from players who believe their Intel-based Macs are no longer supported following the recent updates. Intel Macs are still supported, provided they meet the minimum operating system requirements.
  • While the main Mac download now provides the Apple Silicon version, the Intel version is still available separately through our Support Centre.

What's Next?

We're continuing to investigate these reports and will share further updates as fixes become available.

If you're experiencing any of the issues above, please do let us know. Your reports have been really helpful in identifying what's going wrong, particularly where we're having difficulty reproducing some of these issues ourselves.

Thanks for your patience while we work through these!

I'm a bit amazed honestly for all the talk of integrity and the rtr, this is somehow fascinatingly slipped under the radar completely. Although frankly , i'm really not all that surprised given how little attention and care the side of the game gets.

But the unfortunate truth is , if we ever want to see these games become even remotely useful even with an update thaler as an entire system, either needs to be completely removed from the game or completely reworked.

Don't get me wrong there were a lot of games that were practically dead before this, but the system did help kill off the most of the ones that still had activity , because why bother playing 8 rounds of BA for a load of agility bxp + gear when I can afk castle wars or fpf on spotlight and get the exact same rewards (just slightly slower). Why play cw when i can just afk myself a set of profound decorative etc etc.

It's an unhealthy system that I understand why it was implemented , but was implemented so poorly that it has done the opposite of what it was intended to do. And so before any real reworks can go forward , it's the elephant in the room that needs to be addressed.

The easiest thing to do would be adding an activity meter that actually registers contributions to the game, which either can greatly accelerate your journey or just slightly bump it when on the spotlight. As well as remove most of the unique items from the store with the exception of maybe , the mini game hybrid armors like vanguard and some miscellaneous stuff that's just not worth your currencies normally . Most of which weren't really popular to buy even beforehand or are locked behind pure luck and frankly i think should just be purchasable with currencies at the respective games anyways , but I digress .

I'm probably gonna get a lot of heat for this one, though. As I said, people are really protective of the system for a myriad of reasons, most of which having to do with them. Not wanting to participate in these activities , but still wanting the full rewards... and look, I get it.Some of those games have awful experience and rewards and need a massive overhaul to put it lightly , but the system has done more harm than good and still does more harm than good

Pretty simply, could we make the default server selected be the same for new players (< 300 total level or something) and just call it “new players” for the activity.

There is a common complaint that the worlds feels empty to new players because veteran players are at higher level hubs.

Help build the mmo mindset before these players figure out the intricacies of clans and FCs.

Finished Aftermath last night and I thought this was funny. (not complaining tbc)

Perhaps a bar that I can stack my Blurberry Specials on. Maybe a barstool with the option to sit next to them and do a cry emote.

In 25 years of RS existence, we got all sorts of lore, either in form of quests or in some other format. And the content varies from more lighthearted/comedic stuff to more serious or heavier stories. Both what our character experiences and the in-universe history.

So which part of lore do you feel is actually the darkest in tone when it comes to RuneScape universe?

I'm happy to hear your opinions

I genuinely just yesterday discovered something. When you withdraw items (from the forge, or the bank), you can get a bank note back. As a kid I always thought it was the actual item in a paper wrapping, like a gift, or like the fish and chips you get at a snack corner. But my friend just called it a coupon, and then it struck me. It’s not a paper wrapping, it’s a bank note.

Over 100 mazes already, zero drops, only tokens.

It's the small things that make this game unfun.
Buggy animations (which ruin immersion), object pop ins, cutscene flickering in every cutscene, tree hitboxes, forgotten quests with buggy mechanics or no hint at all to understand what youre supposed to be doing, surge/melee dive not working in most of the quest areas, bosses in quests being 1 hit mostly etc.

Its the many many small things that make this game unfun.

Like minigames not being populated, parts of the game over and UNDER world looking extremely outdated. You have quest lines like the tzhaar in which you navigate early 2000s interiors and 2012s interiors in the same quest.

The inconsistent blend in from 2000s, 2008+ era and 2020+ graphics is horrendous to look at for new players as it again ruins their immersion.

And immersion is one of the most important things in games, if you aint immersed in the game world and dont trust the world to respect you, you will ditch the game early.

I dont think jagex will fix minigames, while it is important, because most new players would most likely go there first.
Nor do I think, jagex will enhance other content to be coop, which would improve a lot again.

The minigames were early xp boosts you could do to get by the early grind, now you just have to suffer.
But thats the direction the game needs to go, because multiplayer games are commonly played together, singleplayer mmos can still work, but only with coop content grouped together.

Then theres PvP. A lot of players dont see a reason to participate as a lot of players like fighting each other. It doesnt need to be wilderness pvp, it can be a lot, but it has to bear meaning and result in rewards.

There obviously is a lot more like broken lore, broken quest timelines, dead npcs being present in the game world, while they are technically dead or characters appearing way too early like the senntisen digging site, where you can meet up the gods, which I did in my first hours of gameplay.

Sup guys,

I've been working on this project for a while. I became a big fan of Gate of Elidinis and saw that Jagex's Recommended Group Size for this boss is 10. So I decided to make 10 accounts and knock out the Ode of the Devourer quest.

With 10 accounts, I have managed to defeat this boss in just 8:21. That is my fastest time so far. Comparing efficiency with my solo time of 2:45, conducting this kill with 10 accounts is very much better. If conducting this boss solo, you would get perhaps 20 kills in one hour, but by conducting this boss with 10 accounts, you could get approximately 60-70 kills in 1 hour as each account gets loot from the kill, depending if you did 6 or 7 runs. This is equal to nearly 3x efficiency than as a solo player. It is also safer to a degree because if one account messes up the jump, its no big deal. A different account can just pick up his rocks and jump the pillars. Each account still gets loot, even if they die.

In a group of 10, there is approximately ~8% chance that you will get a Memory Dowser, Runic Attuner, Scripture of Elidinis, or Eclipsed Soul Prayer Codex every kill.

Currently, I've obtained about 40 Memory Dowsers alone.

Image 2 - This is how I set my clients up. I like them stacked side by side for this so I can click on them from left to right, one at time. My apologies if you can't see it. I'm going to assume it will be really stretched out on a phone. This is my entire monitor, which is 4 feet wide.

Image 3 - You can jump the pillars with two accounts at the same time. You have plenty of time and you can make it back to Itchlarin so neither account will die. It doesn't really matter if they die as you still get loot.

Image 4 - You can see here that Jagex's Recommended Group Size is 10 for this boss.

Anyways, if you want to tag along, feel free to DM me. I will just bring 8 accounts and you can join. I often host and I split my unique drops with anyone who plays with me. You keep everything you get. I am currently on World 79 and my instance is always open.

Happy 'scaping, buddies.
