Added! Thanks for the heads up.

And another set!

Our Engine Update actually went live today, so we've made sure to add the patch notes for those changes to the post. Here's what went live with the Engine Update today too:

  • Improved vertical text alignment when using vector fonts.
  • Improved performance on macOS, iOS and Android
  • Reduced stutter when moving between areas on modern devices
  • Improved water reflections in certain areas such as Anachronia
  • Made improvements to lighting when viewing any models in the User Interface.
  • Improved hitbox accuracy of several areas including the Anachronia and Het's Oasis agility courses, Archaeology sites (eg Infernal Source and Stormguard), and Ranch Out of Time paddocks.
  • Hover text is now correctly displayed.
  • Fixed a crash when unplugging or switching audio devices.

I'm surprised it wasn't mentioned as well, maybe we could add it to patch notes, /u/jagexhooli?

A new engine build went out today, I believe patch notes for them will be added to the news post later today.

Patch Notes

Fixes and improvements in this week's game update


General

  • Updated the look of the 20 Year Veteran Cape based on community feedback
  • The Book of Jas was only storing damage for 14 game cycles (8.4 seconds) before releasing it. This has been extended to 17 cycles (10.2 seconds) to more closely match the tooltip.
  • Throwing a Herblore Bomb at an NPC you're not actively targeting will once again re-focus that NPC as your current target.
  • Sign of the Porter no longer fills all the empty space in the inventory when a player tries to wear one with an active sign equipped.
  • The Skillguide entry for Sana's Fyrtorch will now correctly state that it has a 20% chance to cut an extra log, rather than 40%.
  • Each Daily Combat Challenge now tracks kills separately.
  • Dwarf Multicannon, Oldak Coil and Kinetic Cyclone damage upgrades will no longer reset on completion of the D...

What / who exactly will be the people being interviewed? Jagex staff? Other streamers / content creators?

Or will there be actual player interviews with historic or infamous people like Zezima or that one fella who killed people in falador?

Right now, this series specifically is all about interviewing developers to talk about topics the community want us to dive into.

LOVE the idea of historic player interviews though, we could definitely look at that.

We have a history series commissioned with someone that we'll likely detail soon, which will include giving them access to developers for their content to make it even better - so you will see some of that in the not too distant future too.

Hopefully his involvement will mean that this lasts more than one or two videos. It's proper Jagex fashion to start something like this with no intention of creating more.

So the way we're doing these partnerships is by working with creators on a 'Series' for our channels.

We're doing these over extended period of time to give them a really good trial run, see what people think and have time to adapt to get it right. If players love it and it makes sense for everyone involved, we'll likely renew the Series (potentially for even longer).

Some of the things we try might not continue - but if they do, we'll be looking to replace that series with a new concept or take rather than dropping whatever we were doing.

I like the RS Guy and I hope that he can speak and address real topics and issues with people in the community and not be censored or pushed in a direction heavily by jagex.

It's going to be a recorded show and a partnership - so I'm not going to pretend we'll have zero influence on this as we will get to see topics and questions before filming and such.

However - we have specifically commissioned this with RSGuy to have someone interview developers for our channel and ask the questions the community want to see raised. The show fails if it's all fluffy softball questions as players won't want to watch that and we'll have failed in why we're making it.

My point being is, even though we have a hand in it, our goal is to not get in the way of TheRSGuy's work to represent players on this show.

This is part of an overall move we're working on right now to be more open and accessible in different ways - we have more stuff coming like this too with other creators.

Every adventurer needs a few essentials to succeed in Gielinor. Strength, courage, wit, honour – and of course, snazzy in-game items!

Where would we be without our trusty tunics, dashing capes and dazzling headgear? Somewhere a lot less stylish, that’s for sure. Whether you’re a fashionscape fanatic or just want to look tough when you take on the bosses, collecting items is a key part of the RuneScape experience. It’s your reward for all that hard work (and tangible evidence you kicked butt on your latest quest, natch).

Our lovely community always has a ton of ideas for new cosmetics, too. We’ve received some incredibly imaginative player suggestions for new skins over the years, and we know you’ve been asking to get involved in the process.

Now, we’re handing over the creative reins. Yep, we’re calling on you to nominate retro skin cosmetics you would like to see in RuneScape!

This will be a process with a few steps, but the first b...
