Client OpenGL/DirectX modes?

[Espionage724]

I clicked both and Software but in-game says Runescape was unable to enter that display mode (only Safe Mode/default)

Are the other options supposed to work? I tried from JDK 8 and 25.

Initial client start has:

Clicking Software has:

This depends on how it's run, if you're running from command line or IDE OpenGL/DirectX won't work due to how path resolving and reflection to the dll files work. (This is true of most rsps clients).

OpenGL/DirectX normally only works when running as a Jar file. If this is the case and it's still not working then it's likely due to some reflection to the dll files breaking (you have to be careful what to refactor) or the library package not being bundled into the jar.

[Espionage724]

OpenGL and DirectX work with 32-bit Java (did java -jar with OpenJDK8U-jre_x86-32_windows_hotspot_8u472b08)

[GregHib]

Yeah that would explain it, the client wasn't built for arm 64 bit as it wasn't released at the time

I'm on AMD64 (i5-8400H)

[GregHib]

Oh okay x64 then, it seems like the reason is definitely running as 64 bit then.

The work-around options seem to be:

1. Run with 32-bit via command argument like -d32
2. Install a 32-bit jre for running jars
3. Create an exe with included 32-bit jre

The client uses 32 bit .dlls for rendering and there's not much I can do about that I don't think. I would have to create my own 64-bit supported dlls.

Not related to rendering, but when walking around the map, music doesn't seem to change until the track finishes (passing gate to Al Kharid keeps Lumbridge Harmony playing); is that expected?

Hmm it's supposed to fade and switch. It's only not meant to change if you've selected a song, I've created a bug report for it #936
