If you don't experience problems, good for you, but it's in the best interest of the community that these problems finally get addressed.

Jagex, stop ignoring the sh*tshow that is the client at the moment, a lot of people are having issues with crashes, frame drops, lag spikes, input delays and more.It's not even being acknowledged by Jagex, we are paying for a game, be it through bonds which are bought with real money or directly with real money.We expect a decent game.

Some bugs, like the RAM crash, have been in the game for over 2 years! There is no excuse for that.

The game is supposed to run on a Nvidia GT 400, in the mean time people are reporting problems with Nvidia 3080 and 3090, those are the best GPU on the market?!

For a lot of us it feels like we are forgotten, as soon as 1% of the player base is affected and it hits news outlets you can fix sh*t but a lot of us have been affected for months as well, hardly able to play if at all and we don't even get acknowledged.

Yes, I have posted this before and I will keep posting this until it finally get's fixed or at the bare minimum, admitted by Jagex.

That's why I also tested synthetic with everything hitting 100%

There are multiple RAM issues, one of them being: "the instruction at 0x%p referenced memory at 0x%p. The memory could not be %s. (c0000005)"

That's just a generic crash message, we removed it in favour of the windows crash dialog for new installations. It doesn't reveal anything about the reason for the crash.

If you reinstall the game and get a normal windows crash dialog, paste the contents of 'problem details' here and I can look at diagnosing the cause. Or if you can pull the details from Event Viewer, that will do too

Can you instead respond to the main topic? even if there is no concrete answer yet, anything is better than nothing.

The crashes do seem to be the main topic, or at least the OP's main complaint

Alongside that the frame drops / lag spikes - we are focusing on these currently with some nice improvements on the way. GPU optimisations are also being looked at

Yeah, ever since the lockouts the client has been progressively running worse and worse for me. For the last week, teleporting to a new area takes ages to load the environment, and everything is usually just the blank shade of white and can stay like that for over a minute.

Also, has the multi threaded rendering ever been re-implemented? If I remember right, u/darkimmortal said it was taken out because it caused too many issues and that it would come back sometime in January. I was a bit out of the loop for January and early February though.

Multi threaded rendering has been enabled again for a while

Hmm this is mine in War's Retreat, ignore the 4 fps low I have background fps set to 5 when gaming.

I am not sure what it means either maybe u/darkimmortal can help. I do not get any stutters or anything as described by you or others in this thread, am very grateful but at same time wish I could help you guys!

Edit: are you running compressed or uncompressed textures? I just tried uncompressed and get insane stuttering, compressed is smooth as butter

The colours don’t mean anything, it turns more red as the value increases, but that doesn’t equate to anything bad

Are you guys fixing the linux client? Broken since 4th march. It doesnot work on any distro, as per reports on forum. Do you guys even care for linux users?

It requires EGL now, now that we have added multi-threaded rendering, and as part of modernising the Linux client. It may no longer work on older GPUs/drivers/distros
