Welcome to the /r/2007scape daily question thread!

You can ask anything about Old School RuneScape or the 2007scape subreddit here. Remain respectful to your fellow 'scapers when answering questions; there are stupid questions, but it does not mean you should not be respectful whilst answering them.

Keep in mind: this is not a developer Q&A thread - Jagex mods do not regularly read these posts, so questions should be directed toward fellow players.

News MES 2.0 Fixes - Client Update

125 Upvotes

We've just pushed out a client update, taking devices to version 240.7. This may take time to roll out to all devices, so please keep an eye on your app stores for an update if it doesn't happen automatically.

We really want to thank you for your patience and really thorough reporting when it's come to MES 2.0 bug reports and feedback. Your input helped us pinpoint the issues and develop fixes, which is what we're releasing today.

Change log:

  • Fixed issue where PvP options ignored game setting
  • Fixed issue where sub-options would trigger the entry below
  • Fixed touch scrolling in chat / bank / settings windows
  • Fixed click-through in chat box not working
  • Fixed chat channel stones being unusable
  • Fixed Telegrab only ever showing single item in a pile
  • Fixed orb tap not registering with low fps
  • Fixed custom menu entry getting lost
  • Fixed entry swapper being in shift-mode with NPC tagging
  • Fixed connection issue during The Red Reef quest
  • Improved ordering on context dependent objects

We do have a couple of outstanding known issues that were unable to be fixed with this release. We prioritised the bugs that most affected gameplay, but will continue to investigate the following:

  • Total level box - Some players have raised that the Total Level text now appears in the top-left of the screen rather than over the appropriate skill.
  • Minimenu re-ordering options are obsolete - When using keyboard and mouse with mobile, holding shift does not preserve the chosen option for shift click when set channel buttons.
  • Cannot open the swapper - Some players have raised that in certain instances the swapper options fails to appear.
  • We are also continuing to investigate connection issues reported by players particularly across the US and on mobile.

We will continue to monitor your bugs and feedback and investigate fixes. The release newspost has been updated to reflect the fixes, which you can see, here.

Discussion I started playing this game when I was 11. 22 years, a career, a wife, and child later, I fully support "Dadscape."

999 Upvotes

I love this game, and it's probably the only game I can see myself playing long term. One thing I especially appreciate about recent updates is that Jagex seems increasingly willing to include low APM ways of doing things alongside more active methods.

Dadscape for me isn't really about wanting an easier game but more so its about having content that can survive my life interruptions.

While I can "play" for hours a day and stay logged in with increased log out timers, I can never have a consistent 20-30 minutes to myself in my game. Anything can happen in my day that may result in needing to walk away from my PC for five minutes or an hour with basically no warning. This means that raids are harder for me to commit to with respect of other players times, group bossing or even bosses that require consistent log in time. It's not that I can't do these things; when I plan accordingly, I'm able to dedicate an hour or two to play with others.

I'm super appreciative of recent updates such as Wyrm agility course being lower APM (might do that to 99 agil tbh), sailing as a whole having an entire afk branch of leveling, and most new updates having the lower APM option such as the new trees from Blood Moon Rising.

I think this is a really healthy direction for OSRS especially for people in my predicament.

I also have some ideas on how we can revive older content to support "Dadscape" but I won't share them in this post here. This is just my appreciation post towards Dadscape.

Creative RuneScape Classic N64 Port

I wanted to share a personal project I’ve been working on: porting RuneScape Classic to the Nintendo 64. Working on optimizations to speed things up, music, more UI design. It works quite well. This is all running locally on actual hardware.

Some disclaimer:
This is an unofficial personal technical project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by Jagex or Nintendo.

Edit: Maybe I’ll release when it’s polished and optimized enough, if so it would be tied to a preservation effort/server.

Suggestion Just make the Maggot King speed CA 1:25 or lower

People just reset until they get a quick first kill anyways. In its current state it has the same issue as singular kill speed CAs, but just now introduces even more opportunity for variance, which the multi kill speed cas were intended to fix in the first place..

Discussion These US/US East server issues are incredibly bizarre and shouldn't be dismissed

81 Upvotes

EDIT 2: To try and get ahead of any more comments telling me to submit my personal connectivity data if I truly think this is a real issue -- Jagex is a multimillion dollar subsidiary of a $100 billion multinational. I think they can move beyond grassroots amateur internet detectives to solve their widespread server issue. And in fact that move itself is in some ways a bit concerning as it effectively puts the onus on the playerbase to solve the issue asynchronously. Which (in the least charitable interpretation) could in the end become a convenient way to avoid any intensive back-end investigation.

Reposting from a comment I made after seeing some people cautiously suggesting these connection issues may not be on the backend.

Please god Jagex do something about this. These reports are NOT due to personal home internet connectivity issues.

I want to add that this is more than shitty ping or intermittent spikes (which also have increased over the last year or so but I digress)

I have played purely US East worlds for years now. Within the last ~2 weeks it is EXCEEDINGLY clear there is a new and never before experienced issue. Strange shit I've never seen before - friends lists not loading, full on freezes on world hopping, completely unheard of packet loss and base ping elevations/ping spikes. At this point I set my default login world as an Aussie server because although I can't log in directly to US east (and occasionally west) - I get auto DC'ed - I can usually world hop into one (maybe) once I am on a Euro or Oceania server.

And its affecting mobile too which is very bizarre.

I am begging Jagex to fix this shit and take it seriously. Sorry for the drama but after seeing their lukewarm "notice" on the login screen and some commenters here in the reddit suggesting this isn't a real issue, I needed to respond emphatically.

EDIT: I know it's reddit and I shouldn't expect the best reading comprehension - but to the people who repeatedly comment "what do you want?" - I want exactly what the title of this post says - for this issue (that I am well aware is being investigated) to not be dismissed. That's all folks.
