Mobile Menu Entry Swapper and the new Mobile UI will be coming on October 9th! Learn more about the HD, the official Plugin project, and more osrs.game/HD-API-MobileUI-Updates
Just take a moment to consider how far we have come. Starting back in 2013 with almost no dev team and no resizable client, now a solid MMORPG outperforming RS3 massively.
Enjoy it whilst it lasts, mtx will be coming soon if the game doesn’t grow, jmods need paying and shareholders need to get paid. Its only a matter of time I think.
They don't have to grow in order to be a cash cow, the game already asks you to pay monthly for every account you want membership on. Adding MTX will invalidate all value in actually playing the game. If you can buy everything, this whole 'look at what I achieved' is worthless.
I'm praying that the new mobile UI is not what we beta tested though. The current UI is much better for bossing than that mess and the beta UI was way too right thumb heavy. It needs a good balance.
@@DisobeyZOG no money for a new computer, it’s not as bad as it seems you get used to it pretty quickly so far the only things I really wish I had are in this video (menu swapper and tile markers)
If they do HD the right way they could make OSRS look polished and modern while keeping the charm of the original game. Look at Nintendo, they release games like this over and over.
@@Nes924 yes hd is trying to appeal to people who want high end graphics but this game isnt about top end graphics, id play er or any other rpg, it attracted the wrong crowd, by 08 hd happened, by 10 wildy/bh was removed along with trade, by 12 eoc was here trying to mimic wow
I would be cool if there was a time of day option that synced up the lighting with the in-game clock. That way the time of day stayed consistent as you went to different areas. It would also be nice to have an option to dim ui elements after time to save our screens from burnout. As as example you could set it so after 20 seconds of no interaction the ui elements would slowly get more transparent.
Astounding work from the OSRS team. Menu-entry swapper is truly going to be game changing and was honestly my most difficult part of playing on the go!
Mobile is actually better for some activities, like fletching darts where you have to click from one item to the next as fast as possible to maximize xp. Also for some reason, you can hop the same tick you steal from a stall on mobile, but not on runelite
As a mobile player for 95% of the time, I’m so excited for these new updates! Tile markers and menu entry swapper will be a great QoL improvement and make those pesky raids and bosses a little bit easier to do on mobile. Love your work!
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE UI UPDATE! As someone who runs 10 fps on my pc, Samsung dex offers the ability to run amazingly. However having my prayer and spells on the left is difficult. I'm gonna finally be able to do inferno now! Thank you! And the menu entry swapper and tile markers
i like the hd water, however it makes the rivers banks now just kind of blend with the water. So if there can be some kind of modification to show some kind of erosion from the "flow" of the water then i would thing that would help revome that feeling.
The thing HD plugins always get wrong IMO is shadows. At 0:37, this is an indoor room, right? This looks as if shadows were being cast by the sun. Indoors shadows need to be less directional to give the illusion that there are other light sources in there, otherwise it looks janky.
One issue I can foresee is that most rooms were not designed with light sources in mind. Maybe they can use point lights from "somewhere in the celling" indoors, when there are no obvious sources of light to work with?
The thing is that locations in Runescape only mimic being indoors. The shadows you see there are from a light source inside the treasure room near the entrance, that is why the shadows are being cast that way. Yes this is pre-alpha, but we must keep in mind that some decisions are made for artistic reasons and accessibility in mind. So places could be "unrealistically" lit to give it a certain look or to just make it easier to see. I still hope they give us options to tune in lighting to our own personal tastes however! I do love the gloomy dark aesthetic :D
This looks amazing and so much better than the crappy plugin offered through Runelite. The official client is getting better and better. One day, everyone will use it and third party clients will be dead again. Can't wait! Keep up the amazing job, Jagex.
As a part of sailing I really wish they'd introduce a wading mechanic which allows you to go into shallow water and stuff. A lot of new players seem to be interested and wonder if they can just wade into the shallows of water, so it'd be a nice immersion thing to add for them.
Mobile got me back into osrs and the ability to play whilst away from pc definitely keeps me up with the game… easier mobile gets to use the more I will play osrs period
Bolt Launcher works great but we're limited to HDOS or an occasionally stuttery RuneLite. tbf I've played over 1k hours on it, but it would be nice if we could at least have the Steam client work properly through Proton. At the moment you can either run it fullscreen, or it stretches itself to an infinite height
@@DeltaInsanity Its more the Jagex launcher itself. There is no official support, and you have to rely on a few community options to get the launcher to work. Its a bit of a pain for people who migrated to Jagex Accounts.
You should introduce an area with nighttime/daytime and changing shadows. I played an mmorpg like 20 years with this and it was so cool. But also, looks great, nice work guys :)
Great stuff! One thing that would be cool to get some attention is controlling desktop cars with mobile controls. Lots of x86 tablet devices available now.
For stretched mode and HD, could you make it so the UI scaling doesn't make everything super blurry or pixilated? I play on a 2k monitor and it can take away from the experience when the UI looks bad cause it's stretched 30-50%
Would love to see a way to customize the UI for mobile, like moving things around to your liking. Also like someone else mention here, vertical one handed mobile play! those two things would get me and others I know to play more on mobile.
You have one month to pull this off. Menu swapper shouldn’t just be a handful of items. You have swapper and extended swapper on runelite as reference. Use your time wisely.
Love the overall look of the HD Mode--especially since I have some nitpicks with the way the 117 mod is implemented (no shade), but I have a few questions here: Is it possible that, alongside the HD Mode being introduced, we could see (optional) model changes for things like trees, buildings, ect in legacy content, in order to better match the game's newer areas. As-is, there's a bit of a strange juxtaposition between newer content (which typically features polygonal detail as opposed to texture detail) and older content (which occasionally uses texture detail to introduce detail to things like farmable trees, some building walls, ect.) Alongside this smooth, modern lighting style, it would be awesome to see some of these older, anachronistic models updated to better suit the game's current aesthetics. I don't expect a complete legacy content glow-up, or anything like that, but simple (again, optional) model swaps for various types of trees, and buildings tilesets, would be amazing. Oh! Also, would it be possible to see toggleable color banding in HD Mode? I love the overall settings, but I personally think that color banding helped tie together the overall aesthetic, and made the ground appear much more detailed and hand-painted.
Yes to all the wildy updates. I'm not even a pker but the wilderness produces the best content from creators. If you don't like the wildy you don't have to go so plz don't won't no for no reason. Like chivalry prayer for pures would've helped because range builds dominate right now.
HOly shit I can't believe 24-18 is 6. Started playing osrs when mobile came out after having quit when EOC released. Feels like not that long ago that me and my buddies hopped back on and have been loving it ever since. Great job jagex! Heading over to reddit now to talk shit.....
Exclusively mobile player. Won’t lie ended up turning off all the extra stuff that fills the screen but the entry swapper thing sounds great. Will it work like the Pop-Out menu on the current mobile client where you can just opt in to different features? Will the update cause more load on phones that remain in SD mode and don’t use these features? Great game btw thanks for keeping it running!
Looks like the convenient finger-rollover technique on 16:9 phones will be disappearing :( Putting the UI edge-distance slider to the max used to leave 0px for mistaps at the edge of the screen, so you could just roll a finger over to very easily switch to a different menu, but the xp tracker update, even when disabled, broke that for every element on the right side of the screen, and now it looks this huge QOL is going to disappear entirely with the UI update next month.
Dont forget to add an option on official client when plugin browser will be implemented - transfer profile from RL. This feature will be most important thing for me when it comes to official or RL
5:30 make sure the new update does the puzzle boxes!! I hate just switching to PC so I can solve the thing. I don't have an hour to spend moving tiles around
Im saving for a more powerful phone for this. Osrs already runs well on the past 4 phones I've had. Back in 2018 I was running it easy on an old phone since beta.
Hey, so I'm just getting back into OSRS after several years of not playing, and just recently learned about the whole RuneLite stuff. Is this HD update pretty much just an official version of 117 HD? Just trying to catch up on everything that I've missed!
Will the extended draw distance include NCP’s and players? And will the map scale with the draw distance so we could say see dots on the mini map in that extra distance.
Mobile Menu Entry Swapper and the new Mobile UI will be coming on October 9th!

Just take a moment to consider how far we have come. Starting back in 2013 with almost no dev team and no resizable client, now a solid MMORPG outperforming RS3 massively.
Reinventing the wheel twice unfortunately
Enjoy it whilst it lasts, mtx will be coming soon if the game doesn’t grow, jmods need paying and shareholders need to get paid. Its only a matter of time I think.
If rs3 fails, osrs will get mtx
People play not because of graphics..
They don't have to grow in order to be a cash cow, the game already asks you to pay monthly for every account you want membership on.
Adding MTX will invalidate all value in actually playing the game. If you can buy everything, this whole 'look at what I achieved' is worthless.
I love this team…no other game devs are this transparent
Couldn’t agree more!
You probably have not heard of Grinding Gear Games that develop Path of Exile.
Nah, they've just maxxed out their "Good game dev" stat
Path of Exile and TFT have similarly amazing devs! All S-tier for sure
GGG > Jagex
Digital extremes does a good job. Many many dev updates and pretty constantly too.
Vertical one handed mobile play would be sooo sweet.

menu entry swapper :')) finally
Need runelite settings on mobile
We are so back
No Kidding! This is what we've been waiting for.
That is huuge
Only took 7 years 😂😂😂
Honestly this team at jagex currently is one of the best yet.
wow and it still looks like old school runescape
Which is a good thing
That’s the point
So excited for the mobile update. As a mainly mobile player, menu entry swapper and tile markers will be so nice.
Hopefully we can type on the new mobile client too

I'll finally be able to get insane construction xp! Leaving it as one of my last skills to max has been a great decision now
Thieving won’t make me crazy on mobile now :D

So true
I don't think it needs to look modern. So as long as they let me use old visuals then idc about HD.

Thank YOU!! I love this game.
Pickpocketing on mobile about to go crazy
Beyond excited for these update. Been waiting so long for tile markers! 🎉
As someone who only plays on mobile I must say I'm looking forward to this!
YESSSSS!! Mobile update for the WIN! Extremely excited! I am a day one mobile player(never had a PC before) and play literally every single day
Logout Timer and Bank Layouts on mobile gonna be sick.
Wow, menu entry swapper on mobile is so necessary thanks for paying attention!
i hope jagex knows if they revamp their official client and implement HD right it could be the best thing this game has ever gotten.
Don't like playing mobile but this is a huge update
Mobile is actually better for some activities, like fletching darts where you have to click from one item to the next as fast as possible to maximize xp. Also for some reason, you can hop the same tick you steal from a stall on mobile, but not on runelite
I feel the game is perfect for mobile. Almost. I prefer mobile ever since it dropped beta.

What i love about this HD update is it still has the old school feel. RS3 and the HD client all look much different (but damn RS3 does look good too).
These quality of life features are so much appreciated! Thank you very much, kings
Plugin api is huge. Enough to topple RL if you launch the s right.
Love everyone's work lately.
I wouldn't really call it toppling, the runelite guys have consulted with jagex
Fast-loading chunks is amaze
Finally!! Tile markers and entity highlighter on mobile! :')
Game changer. Thank you Jagex! This mobile enjoyer is very hyped!
One thing I hope for if render distances are improving, is player render distances too. Thats one thing Ive never seen with RS3 or OSRS 117hd.

OSRS HD actually looks really solid, super excited for some of these changes!
Looks great! Might play again when HD releases - need that Rune Scape HD Nostalgia.
Play HDOS client. Gives 2010 graphics
I am so excited for menu entry swapper on mobile!

Dang, y'all are about to make me start playing again.
Obviously, we are talking about clients here. But I was wondering if there is any more movement on an offical Linux client?

its october 10th today and nothing changed on mobile.
I believe early 2025 we will see these updates
Menu swapper and mobile plug-ins ❤❤. Finally I can feel like I’m not somewhat nerfing myself being mobile only on my pure.
Door kicker in video let's go!! Peak plug in
I just wish HD had the RSHD 2010 look to it for the characters. Loved that style so much.
There's a client called HDOS which gives that era's style
Use HDOS instead. If they forced that character update into the main client, they would bleed players.
For stretched mode and HD, could you make it so the UI scaling doesn't make everything super blurry or pixilated? I play on a 2k monitor and it can take away from the experience when the UI looks bad cause it's stretched 30-50%
Are you using any scaling techniques under the GPU/117 plugin? I play on a 2k monitor and the UI is super smooth and high res looking :D

Reflections in osrs water was something i needed but never knew. God damn
All this time i thought i was the only mobile player.
Looks like the convenient finger-rollover technique on 16:9 phones will be disappearing :(
Putting the UI edge-distance slider to the max used to leave 0px for mistaps at the edge of the screen, so you could just roll a finger over to very easily switch to a different menu, but the xp tracker update, even when disabled, broke that for every element on the right side of the screen, and now it looks this huge QOL is going to disappear entirely with the UI update next month.
Love these updates!
Dont forget to add an option on official client when plugin browser will be implemented - transfer profile from RL.
This feature will be most important thing for me when it comes to official or RL
That hd with the sailing with the water plus the reflections on my rtx7900 xtx!
5:30 make sure the new update does the puzzle boxes!! I hate just switching to PC so I can solve the thing. I don't have an hour to spend moving tiles around

look up the wiki guide, after youve gotten the hang of it, it only takes a few minutes to solve
