Game Engine Fix for Intel
Quick find code: 15-16-795-66274098
My issue is actually still there, but it was nice to get a small break.
I was expecting it might return but hoping for the best. That's why I said in the post above it is improved and not totally fixed. As an example of why, the wilderness flash events made my screen flash out of control when it was released.
That problem was fixed, but it's still there, lurking under the surface. Occasionally it sneaks up and gets me. Also maybe related to that, my client has developed a slight twitch in the past week or so. In the top left corner 3 lines will appear, and they look like a signal strength meter. First line is tall, then shorter, then shortest.

For as long as I can remember, on multiple machines the game would crash on my first attempt to open it. Recently it has become nearly 100% of the time. With the fix today it is definitely improved. I notice the transition to loading application resources starts immediately and doesn't stop, which led to the crash.
It is fair to say improvements were made. While I do not have the problem of the game client crashing when I first open it, I have noticed an increase in the speed at which the application resources are now loading.
Original message details are unavailable.
So basically anyone who is hiding in compatibility mode due to crashes on startup might want to give it another try.
When I read this week's newspost, I decided to test out the crash reduction claims for myself. The results were mixed.
The issues which have driven me to play in Compatibility Mode for about the past six months are a little different. My game wasn't crashing upon logging in, however there were certain places in-game where RS would immediately and completely freeze. I couldn't even log out. I had to X out the client and reopen it. I found these screen freezes could be avoided by playing in CM. Yeah, the lag sucks, but it beats total game freeze.
One place my game would freeze is halfway between the Edgeville lodestone and the clay rocks south of the barbarian village. As I moved south from the lodestone, roughly in-line with the Body Altar, everything just stopped, unless I was in CM. When I tried this in Auto Normal Mode on Monday, as I reached the spot where my game had frozen before, the run animation stalled for a second, but then I continued moving without the game freezing. The same thing happened later when I approached the trapdoor to enter Edgeville Dungeon.
However, later on I tried to teleport to Falador. This still results in total game freeze.
I sent Jagex another detailed bug report. Clearing the cache does nothing to help.
So I am back in CM. I've been putting out fire with gasoline!
