Hey guys,
I know it is possible to get lots of information about the game by cracking the RS cache on your computer, and that this is frequently done for the purpose of making private servers, etc.
I have no interest in private servers, but I am very interested in obtaining information about in game elements via the cache.
On a private server forum I saw a massive text file posted with such information, here is an excerpt:
This has item names and examines, and this file was massive, like a 2MB text file with all this info. Apparently this was obtained through a file type in the cache known as client scripts. Does anyone know how I could keep getting this text file for every game update?
I asked them on their forums (thread for reference: http://www.rune-server.org/runescape-development/rs-503-client-server/configuration/524349-rs3-788-general-maps.html) and because they think I'm a rival RSPS developer or something they wouldn't tell me how it was obtained. I found the location of the client script files but I have no idea how to decode them into this kind of text file.
