I'm really not a fan of not being able to log on to the RuneLite client with my character I uploaded to my newly created Jagex account. Is this really not reversible? If so, it's enough for me to not play this game anymore.

Edit:
I feel like an idiot. I figured it out. Please ignore this post.

I needed three environment variables to get OSRS C++ working perfectly with Wine Staging on Linux:

PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=400 solves audio glitching (even with Pipewire on F38)

vblank_mode=3 allows unlimited framerate option to Vsync (ideal for 60Hz+)

MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink works around an odd FPS issue on Wayland on i915

On Xorg I get 120+ FPS. Unlimited, 60 FPS, TearFree, and vblank_mode=3 did not fix odd tearing towards the top-part of the screen, and I had it even on the legacy Java client. The only fix for me with Intel UHD 630 graphics was to use Wayland. Oddly OSRS got limited to 40-50 FPS without capped GPU load on Wayland until I forced it to run through Zink.

Now I have seemingly perfect audio playback and OSRS is capped to my display framerate, with Wayland and Vulkan. I'm satisfied with the C++ client on Fedora 38!

The only thing that needs looked into is the Jagex Launcher installer itself; it doesn't load anything on Wine (no obvious console error, no GUI), and I've been resorting to restoring a backup of the Jagex Launcher folder from a previous Windows install.

graphic update with new client is great but there are a few things that would improve old school like a slayer counter its hard to keep up with how many u need to kill and that should be added as a setting choices in old school

This is already implemented in the main version of RuneScape and it sounds like you'd have a better time with it if you haven't tried it. There's a nice box on the UI that shows the current slayer task and how many are left to kill.

On OSRS you can use a free Enchanted gem from a slayer master, or just free-kill until you stop receiving slayer XP. OSRS is... old school RS. Not UI-happy QoL RS :p

Adding a UI counter removes the limited use of the gem and I don't support that, but I guess as long as it's an option and if it's polled, that's fair.

C++ doesn't work for me. I can no longer play Runescape. The app crashes 100% of the time. On the old platform that I was forced to move off of, it worked 100% of the time. This is improvement? Will there be a patch so that everyone can play on the new platform? Right now Runelite is my only option.

I was wondering if there was any way to add a support feature to the mobile client for stylus/Mouse and key mobile users? I use the mobile client all the time at my job because of a lack of WiFi. The issue lies with straying away from mid to high level pvm content because of the pray and magic interface being all the way to the left side of the screen which doesn't work well for stylus players either. Can the interface be changeable so there is a single box like the main client?

Really all you would have to do is slide it over to the right so the boxes match up. Or allow it to be moved.

Install the latest vcredit from abbodi1406/vcredist or TechPowerUp; not optional and will probably fix other issues you're likely having.

You need proper OpenGL; make sure your graphics drivers come from the vendor (AMD, NVIDIA, Intel) and nowhere else; not your OEM (outdated likely), and especially not Windows Update (even more likely outdated). Remove your drivers fully with a vendor tool (AMD and NVIDIA have official cleanup tools), or use DDU. If you have a laptop from a OEM like Dell or HP and have Intel graphics, do not toggle the clean-install option from the new driver installer or WU will happily mess your stack right back up (oem extensions) :p

The C++ client runs fine for the majority; Steam users have had it for over a year without outstanding issues, and it even runs fine under Linux through Wine today.
