Started a GIM with some friends. Ironman is honestly so much more fun than mains to me, but I would hate to do it alone.

Vexcil, in November 2023 Megathread

Just a quick note on playing osrs with controller. That is how I received my first ban in runescape.

It was back during season 6 of game of thrones. I spent 20ish hours binge watching earlier seasons to catch up while alching at the ge. Suddenly disconnected and discovered I had a macroing major ban with no option to appeal. Went to the only point of contact to jagex staff to plea my case, the community forum, only to be told if I complain again they would perma me.

Sorry if this is a downer to read but just wanted to warn others. I hope jagex has improved since then. This mightve been before mobile was even released so maybe they have better not detection now.

Eitherway, as a fellow Steam Deck enjoyer I would highly recommend checking out emulation station if you are a fan of retro gaming. It’s one of my most frequently used SD apps.

I hope you get to 99 quickly, I am averaging 5% of my goal to 97 mining every day, only 70% left!

That does sound like a bad experience for sure :s

Hopefully they’ve ironed out all the false positives, I’ve heard other people say the same before. I’ll definitely make sure to map 1:1.

I’ve done things like that with my keyboard in the past and have no problems (I have left/right click keys on my mech keyboard - handy for thieving elves and stuff).

I will definitely check that out thanks! As far as new games go the only ones I really want to properly go through are Soulsbournes/Elden ring and the Witcher series. Apart from them and RS I don’t really feel enthralled by newer games so emulation is definitely the way to go.

Thanks! Hang in there with mining too :-)

I don’t have a Steam Deck so I can’t really help you with that, but I still find it funny that Jagex somehow decided to make a security improving Jagex Launcher for a multiplatform game, but then the launcher doesn’t support Linux and the method they suggest doing is running some random Lutris script from a random github repository which doesn’t have any kind of support from Jagex’s side. Apparently they can’t even get it to Linux because they are using some kind of a licensed tech that doesn’t support Linux at all.

Ew0,
@Ew0@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Oo, do you have a source for that (licensed tech)? I guess they may be using closed-source stuff then maybe but I wonder how they port it to Mac!

MrHandyMan,

Mod Ash mentioned it on Twitter: twitter.com/JagexAsh/status/1701861633532792883

Mod Korpz tells me it’s built from tech licensed from another company. Inserting Linux support into it is apparently a considerably bigger ask than it sounds :(

another company. Inserting Linux support into it is apparently a considerably bigger ask tha

Interesting, that’s nice to know they’re not just being obstinate… I wonder what license lets them use it for Mac but not Linux. Thanks!

Cthulhus_Cuck,

Mac has a lot more proprietary libraries not available on Linux, which is why you’ll see a lot of software supported on Mac but not Linux. My understanding of it at least, so just a lot more work to get it going on Linux universally.

Ew0,
@Ew0@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Makes sense. Bit of a shame really, I’m not using a Jagex Account until they force it on me to be honest, there’s no BSD support either!

Not saying they need to cater for the 5 people who play on BSD but open-source/cross-platform stuff would have been nicer to deal with.

I do still play from time to time on my old Thinkpad running OpenBSD, no sound, no GPU plugin. Maybe I’ll port it over one day! :p

Cthulhus_Cuck,

Jagex launcher is super nice because you don’t need to enter your password every time, it’s just the mobile login button which is super nice. But ya I, feel you, I have a few Linux machines I just tinker around on and have runelite on and it would be nice if they were to open source the jagex launcher so I don’t have to type my damn password every time I afk timeout :)

Ew0,
@Ew0@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Yeah, agree but the issue here is, what happens when their non-native implementation for Linux goes kaput? i guess we’ll be having to run Windows or Android VMs!

There’s tons of FOSS auth stuff but apparently Jagex isn’t clued in enough…

MrHandyMan, (edited )

That’s pretty much my worry. I would be fine if they e.g. release their “official” lutris script or something, because at least then I would trust that they might be willing to fix issues if something comes up. But now that they are pretty much saying that they won’t support Linux in any way, but you might try these solutions on your own risk, it doesn’t really make me want to use them.

Ew0,
@Ew0@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Yep. Oh well we still have kvm/qemu…

And here I’m happy when I can do more than one barrows bros per inventory!

clive, in Shooting Stars - Upcoming Changes

Would rather they look at fixing mining if a 20k xp/hr method is far and away the most popular method.

Lorgres, in October 2023 Megathread

Hope your bone heals well.

I got spooned a dpick at cal’varion this week and have also been afk levelling woodcutting. Almost at 85 to boost for the kourend diary.

Kinda burnt out on osrs though. I want to learn CoX and ToB but I’m trying to get full crystal first. Missing 2 more seeds but CG is just so boring.

Drigo,

You don’t need crystal armor for raids at all. Don’t let that stop you! I’m a group ironman, and have not done cg because I also think it’s boring. Do you already have the enhanced seed?

Currently I’m afking amethyst for the group, and playing other games. Because Iam also kinda burned out, and there has just come out alot of great games. So definitely play something else while you afk for a couple weeks/months. Then you’ll be ready to farm the last 2 seeds and start raiding

Lorgres,

Yeah I have the enhanced and 4/6 armour seeds. I know I can do without, I have done a few raids already. I just don’t feel like doing more raids with a d-crossbow if I’m this close to finishing crystal. Especially since using the bowfa is a ton of fun (been using it with the crystal top and slayer helm on some tasks). It would also make stuff like Bandos/Cerb etc better.

I’ve been afking shooting stars at work. Still a while off 92 mining sadly. I’d love amethyst for the BP. I have a ton of Addy darts but they suck since the BP nerfs.

Drigo,

Oh damn, you’re really close then. Maybe just doing 1-2 cg a day. The Bofa really is a game changer in raids, I can never outdamage my group mate that has it. I really understand not wanting to raid with a dcbow when you’re that close. And yeah it really fucking slaps at bandos too, very good for the X/0 methods

Funny you mention mining, I have taken the amethyst grind for the group, and oh boy it’s a long one.

But if you have the lightbearer and daxe you can easily start mining it from lv 90 which is really nice. It’s unfortunately not as afk as shooting stars, you have to click every 1-2 minutes. But I find it alright to afk while playing other games

Ew0,
@Ew0@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Thanks! As said you don’t really need crystal, it’s just a nice to have. It’s nice for Cox/ToA but for learning ToB you’re better off with elite Void. I know the feeling of camping wolf prison all too well (~1500kc).

Maybe switch it up? I was averaging 25kc cg a day but some days I’d just do 5 instead, you’ll get it for sure, no rush :) Could even run normal CG if you feel burnt since it’s just a lot more chill. GL!

teraflopsweat, in October 2023 Megathread

I’m a relatively early game UIM. Right now wrapping up base 70 combat stats (excluding prayer). Needing to knock out more quests but can’t really bring myself to take the time. 🥴

Ew0,
@Ew0@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

I bet, UIM seems like very rewarding but also a lot of prep/theorycrafting. GL :)

Guthix, in October 2023 Megathread

Well, in between the prior two threads I took my total level from 2080 to 2090, which felt slow. So I buckled down and skilled for the last month, and got to 2125. Got 91 thieving for desert elites, 99 crafting, and a couple cox kc with friends to knock out kourend elites. Only diary tasks left are Runecraft to 91 (or 89, or 86 depending on how sick of it I get - currently only 81), and BA level 5’s. Pretty solid progress for a month though! Trying to focus on 99 slayer mostly right now to take a break from skilling, sitting about 300k from 97 currently.

Ew0,
@Ew0@lemmy.sdf.org avatar

Very nice, I feel the grind too! 4 slayer levels to go now at 95 and I’m done maxing. I’ll be hitting ToB/Hardmode ToB religiously after to build up the bank. No boss tasks, I’m just sending duradel for all the cannon/burst tasks I can. Best of luck!

BaardFigur, in Runelite chat filter regex

One point to mention is that the chat filter plugin also has a checkbox to strip accents out of text as well.

Wouldn’t that be problematic as a non-english speaker? Accents, graves, umlauts, etc, are a part of many languages. Even as a english speaker you would miss many non-bot chats

BaardFigur, in Thoughts on the shooting star update?

I’d love to see a way to get around the world ddosing it causes

BaardFigur, (edited ) in The discs are back!!!!!

Prisoner of glouphrie is the bad one. That was a dreadful quest. Came in 2011, so we’re probably not getting it, luckily

teraflopsweat, in Thoughts on the shooting star update?

I haven’t had a chance to try them since the update. How are the xp rates?

GetsThruBuckner,
@GetsThruBuckner@lemmy.world avatar

XP is still mediocre at around 25k an hour but it’s actual AFK mining XP. Not fake AFK like motherlode mine

teraflopsweat,

Sounds perfect 👏

Smokeless7048, in The Scar Essence Mine

interesting idea. i really love seeing the expansion of the Abyss

zainitopia, in The discs are back!!!!!

i honestly don’t even remember the discs

Eyelessoozeguy, in September 2023 Megathread

Excited for hunters guild and varlamore on the poll

Drigo,

What would you except out of a hunters guild? If it’s just 2-3 creatures you can hunt inside the guild. I think it’s going to be pretty boring.

I hope they’ll maybe make some hunter contracts (alike construction contracts) where you have to go out and hunt a specific animals. Maybe some new methods, so it’s not just “catch 100 chins”
