Hi everyone,

We've just deployed an engine update that addresses a number of issues across Desktop and Mobile, including the black/invisible textures issue as well as the root cause of some UI based issues like the action bar icons bug. (Note: The update to fix this earlier in the week was a temporary workaround fix while we addressed the root cause).

This update is currently only available on Desktop, with Mobile to follow shortly after!

  • Fixed an issue on Intel GPUs where players were seeing black or invisible textures in compatibility mode.
  • Fixed an issue with action bar icons not updating properly when switching between pages or removing abilities.
  • Fixed an issue with sliding block puzzles where the empty space was not showing properly.
  • Fixed a rare crash when placing walk markers.
  • Fixed a crash occurring on snapdragon 865 devices.
  • Fixed a number of issues with on-screen keyboard input on iOS devices.
  • Fixed item stack counts sometimes not appearing on Samsung Galaxy S20, S21 and Note 20.
  • RuneScape is now only available on iOS versions 14.0 and above.
  • Improved point light brightness on mobile devices.
  • Improved the speed of cache validation.
  • Added contextual keyboards and auto-correction on keyboards for iOS.

This information will also be available in next week's This Week In RuneScape patch notes! Please drop us a comment below if any of the issues above continue for you on Desktop after this update.

So here is my comment.

CPU has usage has basically doubled since that update. My computer can handle it but yeh thats kinda excessive.

Memory was a bit wonky prior - Still kinda the same. Sometimes it shoots up. Most of the time it is fine.

Since update - sometimes have a rare issues where cpu goes to 99% randomly at certain places, leaving fixes it.

I presume this is the new normal. So I will just learn to live with it. Thankyou.

We've seen some reports of this from others also. We'll pass it to the team to check out.
