Hi, just hopped on the forum to say..
..that i am suffering from 50% loss in frames per second the past 2 months on Linux with the runescape 3 client.

The decrease of performance happens on different OS and DE:
Arch, Debian, Fedora, Manjaro, Endevour. With XFCE, KDE plasma, i3, Gnome.

I am using closed source NVIDIA drivers, from the official NVIDIA webpage.
Laptop hardware:
CPU - Amd Ryzen 5
GPU - NVIDIA RTX Laptop 3060
MEMORY - 16 Gib
Brand - Lenovo 15"

Note that i used the, #snap, #flatpak, #.deb, and #.aur, rs3 client installers.

Few days ago i updated the software packages on Windows 11, to make sure firmware,
is up to date.

There is not much i can do from my side, to resolve the horrible frames per second drop.

The performance drop usually happens when logging in: then teleport in Gielinor. After the teleport frames per second drops on 120Mhz screen to 50-60FPS. The FPS used to be 120 capped stable all the time, in the past.

Also worth mention the issue persists on minimal graphical settings in the nxt client, even with textures turned off. Turning on different skyboxes ingame does not solve the issue either.

I am stuck at this point on how to resolve the bug.
Did in-game bug report yesterday.

If anyone is suffering likewise issues, and know how to solve, or workaround, please feel free to post.

Have a nice day.
^_^

I guess the RS Forums seems pretty dead?
Anyway, i am Linux Power User..
..however, due to the poor technical development on the RuneScape Linux client past few years..

i decided to install and run Windows 11, just to play RuneScape.
No performance issues on RuneScape, runs smooth.

Sad to see that after playing RuneScape on Unix since 2004, i have to install Windows in 2023..
just to make run RuneScape run smoothly.

Tbh Jagex, you can consider this a rant. Please invest more time into the open source runescape client development.

Right Mod Dark?
Have a not so nice day, Let's Play RuneScape! (on Windows :{ sadly)

Thread can be closed on request. Or ignore, what ever. ;)
