SRL Archive - News and General

Hello,

You've probably all seen the new RuneScape looks. The graphics have fairly improved, and SRL needs to be tweaked a bit to work with the new Interface.
From what I can tell, there are some disadvantaged as well as advantages in this new RuneScape.

A big advantage might be the build-in world map. I have not checked if it's colors are always static, but I don't think that really matters.
If it's color correspond with the current world, even better. We can get ALL colors from that Map. If not, we can use it to get our current position, quite exact. ;)

A big disadvantage is that I no longer found any unsigned java, it is probably there, maybe safe mode? We will find out soon enough.
SMART currently does not work, but I am sure we can fix that. I actually say 'we', but I am of course referring to BenLand100. :p

Updating SRL won't be hard, I recon. I am just curious how we will take advantage of this new RuneScape!

~Wizz

hmm cool

if we could get colors from map we could easily detect colors in front of us before we walk there

and we could use it has fail safes

Thats nice, but how you will be able to see where you are on the new world map?
Oh and colors aren't the same.

Hooray! Spam ftw.

Actually, are you talking changes in low details game or high detail? They didn't changed anything in low detail, or they did?

Am I right, if I'll say there will be no public SRL functions made for high detail game?

Maybe there will be, but first we have to get the Low-Detail working, no? :)

I haven't been able to get on to the new game yet - it never seems to load :(!
BTW, Yay for me at predicting the in-game world map!

Can the world map be used for walking? If so, it could make scripts very easy indeed!

There is still unsigned!
Go to mainpage,
Go to play now.
Select java options.
Than you can set the unsiged, signed things.
Than hit save settings:D

Theres not really any need for change with SRL..

You can still use the same version as we currently macro on :)


If you dont know how, all you have to do is click on the 'Safe Mode' button then click low detail mode on runescape website, then when runescape loads set ALL settings to Low and …. WAH LAH! Back to the old version (Low Detail) if you want to use the old version in High Detail then just change all the settings to high.

The login screen is different there too ;)

The login screen is different there too ;)

And a lot of colors are like darker so scripts doesnt find them, and logout button has changed too.

I love the new graphics,but scripts didnt work and that sucks :(

Low detail -> Safe Mode.
Unsigned is still there, http://www.runescape.com/options.ws

Yeah the Dev's will need to change the login / logout precedures and some other minor things, but overall if you still use the old detail mode.. then scripts work fine.. Ive been using Hy's fight caver for the past 3 hours.. Works fine.

Oh, I edited the login / logout proc on his script.. >.<

So that means when we auto, we play on the low detail and put a check on safe mode? I think another thing we have to do is to have scripts check the brightness everytime you log in. For some reason everytime i log out, it resets to the third brightness bar.

yer my brightness bar is always changed too every time i log!!!

Center of the map / screen :P

if you go to the options tab u can controll the new graphics… so wont be that hard…..

Maybe add in some new mouse functions to make us even less detectable…

*cough* lmouse/lcmouse *cough*

:p

Well i'm sure you geniuses can make this to our advantage :D .
A little off topic:
I laughed when I saw the new layout.
Honestly, it's a joke.

And TBH I don't care for the full-screen Runescape.

When can I use Scar again?

you have to remember what scar revolves around which is color. with all the new high depth updates colors are more exact which will make autoing easier

When you can make new scar? Scripts didnt work..

lol you can use scar now theres nothing stopping you

scar doesn't revolve around color the scripts do and high detail adds more colours which will make it harder to auto in high detail

From: Laagi

…um why would there need to be a new scar? and theres a reason your scripts don't work

ok well i have just had a little check and all the colors seem to be the same on the world map as they are on the mini map which is good

i will check in a few differant areas just to make sure

EDIT:okay well i just checked a few more and they are still the same

Yes the log in page, the colour's have changed everything about rs is new and changed! so yes there is need for updates! :stirthepot:

Its not the end of the world though…. we hav had to face much larger challenges then this.

Yes I know, I said that we will need some minor changes 'IF' we still use the old low detail version.

But..

I don't think that the Dev's will change the entire coding of the SRL include for the new 'High Detail' update, That will take weeks maybe even months. Also if people are complaining that the new graphics lag then how the heck will they be able to run scar and be on runescape (High Detail) at the same time without MAJOR lag..

So we'll just have to wait and see what the Dev's decide to do :)


Thanks,
TurboBk.

Also, another disadvantage is that the server automatically starts you on the second highest brightness, which means we will have to adjust all the bots to change that to high after they log-in, if that is possible, kind of stinks knowing that with every update they set defenses against us.

*Cough* ores *cough* :)

Nothing is impossible.. :)

Also my Brightness never changes back to the default, just make sure you dont delete the cookies.

No lag here, but I prefer low details instead of high.

Mine seems to have a mind of its own even if I dont.
The bots should still check the brightness, the user might not be aware if he set it right on overnight runs.

Doesn't safe mode just set it to the lowest detail anyway?

From: nathanator22
Doesn't safe mode just set it to the lowest detail anyway?

Yes is does. Should not be a problem to make SMART, just add '&safe=on' in the link.

There is also a Problem with the ChooseOption function, Where when it 'Drops' on a WC script is will sometimes accidentally left click on the item below the one trying to drop. The script will then try to 'use' the item on everyhting. Its kind of hard to explain. Tried a few scripts and none worked. Managed a quick fix, but it may just be me, is anyone else having same the problem ?

i dont think its necessarily darker colours, you'll probly find that in runescape in the spanner tab in game the brightness bar is never set to full when you log in…

Sounds interesting, hopefully we can get through this hurdle.

I dislike the change, the colors are too dark and moody.

Meh… I know for Devs thats a piece of cake, lol , Just some color tweaking, Idk, nothing is impossible for them :D, so we'll just have to wait until Devs have fun fixing that :p

Any idea when Srl will be back up, or if any of us could help or test or something?

I made a fix for the login. It can be found in SRL-Public Forums-Scripting Help.

i think you guys should just keep it low detail because 1.
its faster

2, its easier

I think eventually the SRL community will benefit from this update, but right now its kinda rough because hardly and scripts work, and most that do work don't work 100%.

Vouch that.

why dont instead of changing anything, we just run scripts in low detail mode?

because its still slightly different even in low detail the panel with your skill and backpack and junk is different login is different and 3 cities or different with some minor graphic updates to everything, in otherwords most colors are now slightly different and will need to be fixed in srl

The new runescape is cool. I love the new models and the way some items look. I also like the water effect and lighting effect.

I just wish Jagex could make a DOWNLOADABLE game client something about 1-2 GB of space with WAY BETTER graphics connecting to the same database so that we can keep our current stuff.

You know what I am saying? So we can play RS in our SUPER GAMING COMPUTER at home, with reallllly awesome graphics… and then please "browser" client when we are outside our house or at a friends house, lol.

I can dream can't I.

That would be SO FREAKING AWESOME! :p :D
It would probably cost money to get the uber version of the game but i wouldbe willing to pay for it!

Ok seriously Before i can start getting some of the functions in my script going i need srl updated any ideas a week 1 weeks?
