Radimenion,
For the NXT client there is a line that can be changed in the runescape-launcher script by doing
sudo gedit /usr/bin/runescape-launcher
in Terminal and changing the number in
export MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.0
from 3.0 to 2.1 Save the change and close the text editor program. Then try to start the NXT client. That helps some NXT client users who have graphical problems.
That environment variable might also work on my java client
you can just start my client using
Original message details are unavailable.
env MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE=3.0 runescape

I do miss the direct communication i had at some point with jagex to get stuff like this sorted out within some kind of timeframe but alas, that is no longer happening and i am now working on an updated docker image (for amd RX users mainly. Sorry nvidia users, blame nvidia i am honestly not kidding) to be used with x11docker that isolates everything except the gamecache, pulseaudio and gpu. This is due to the heaps of security concerns that involves the nxt client on linux now.

Docker image size: 553MB without the game cache (which will be stored in ".runescape-nxt" in your $HOME folder)

We also have the runescape nxt client on flathub that is maintained by some community members if you just want a simple and very streamlined client install (a bit extra work for our dear nvidia friends though!),
Here are a list of all the RuneScape NXT maintainers on flathub: https://github.com/flathub/com.jagex.RuneScape/graphs/contributors/
Some which have actually contributed to the rsu client!

At this point we should consider invoicing jagex for all of this ;) God/Protector of the Penguins.

Updated the first page to include a better, easier and more secure way to install the client using flatpak, as i honestly do not recommend people to run the native package anymore because of this security kerfuffle that jagex is creating with their neglect.

I have also included my Dockerfile for the NXT client which supports the AMD RX cards, it should also work with older radeon cards and intel cards (i think) that handles the NXT client.

It should also work for nvidia but i do not have an nvidia card in my host system anymore to test this with but i provided the theoretical command to run on the image on a system using nvidia graphics as long as you have followed the x11docker instructions to make it work with the proprietary nvidia driver, as nouveau still lacks proper opengl support :(

however the point of the docker image is to make a hyperisolated nxt client that only exposes the gpu and pulseaudio and the gamecache, this is all thrown out of the window if you run the client through docker on an nvidia card, at this point youre more secure using the flatpak solution instead (WHICH IS WAY SMALLER!)

why you do this to us nvidia.

TLDR; Docker image is meant for those being hyper concerned about security God/Protector of the Penguins.

Thank you,

It was the graphics driver. I had just installed the OS a few days prior, and didn"t check the post-install steps. After installing the nvidia driver (390, latest) I can run with no problems and on 'ultra' settings for graphics.

This is all on the 'fun' computer, which I do not consider secure . . but I was not aware of the issues you mention.

Was trying to install NXT client for a friend, was working the first few days (solid 60 fps best:68 worst:40) then he started getting an error, he's been having other problems too with this computer (can't update anything through terminal or app store atm, and plagued with random window crashes) hoping someone on the forum here might have an idea, or maybe even a recommendation for a more "dell suited" version of linux.

His launcher was crashing, and after trying countless things I opted for a fresh install, not only did it not help but ubuntu almost didn't reinstall and now everytime I try to download runescape im hit with this same error

UPDATE: upgraded to 18 from 16 again just to see if it would make a difference, can use the terminal now, was able to download the client, but still the launcher still crashes every time I try to log in on it, plus when i type "runescape-launcher" in the terminal I am now getting these errors, sometimes none or one of these

For your earlier post about Ubuntu 16.04:

Did you try doing
sudo apt-get -f install
as it suggested?

I'm not sure why you're having dependency problems. You can try
sudo apt install libc6 python2.7-minimal libpython2.7-stdlib libsdl2-2.0-0 libwebkitgtk-1.0-0

to install the dependencies it is having trouble with. Doing that has worked for some people when they had dependency issues.
