====== Information ====== * RuneScape ((http://www.runescape.com)) * NXT ((https://runescape.wiki/w/NXT)) * Jagex Launcher ((https://www.jagex.com/en-GB/launcher)) * This allows running the Jagex Launcher with Wine, and the RS3 NXT client natively * Jagex Launcher can be closed after pressing ''Play'' and the RuneScape client window appears ((the log-in session carries over through world switches and even log-outs; Jagex Launcher only needs re-opened if you close the RS client window)) ===== Prerequisites ===== * [[linux;distros;fedora_workstation_gnome|Fedora Workstation (GNOME)]] * [[notes:wine|Wine]] ===== Notes ===== * Once installed, be sure the game cache is fully-downloaded, and ideally toggle Options -> Textures between ''Compressed'' and ''Uncompressed'' for both caches ((2024/03/24: ''RuneScape'' folder is 10.9 GB)) ====== Disable Legacy GNOME Tray ====== * :!: Jagex Launcher sometimes has issues with being interacted with from GNOME tray with the AppIndicator/KStatusNotifierItem support for GNOME Shell extension ((this automatically installs on Fedora through Steam as a dep, and is included out-the-box with Ubuntu 23.10)) * Can be an issue on other desktop environments ((2023/12: Xfce on openSUSE TW seemed fine)) gnome-extensions disable 'ubuntu-appindicators@ubuntu.com' gnome-extensions disable 'appindicatorsupport@rgcjonas.gmail.com' ====== Dependencies ====== * :!: F40 requires installing ''openssl1.1'' RPM from F39 ([[https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/problems-playing-runescape-without-openssl-1-1/124701|thread]]) sudo dnf install 'openssl1.1.x86_64' && sync ====== Install ====== ===== Initial ===== **** mkdir -p ~/'.wine' && WINEPREFIX=~/'.wine/RuneScape' WINEARCH='win64' wineboot && sync ===== Jagex Launcher ===== * :!: You'll need to supply ''Jagex Launcher'' files as the installer doesn't work ((install Jagex Launcher on a Windows machine first, and then the ''Jagex Launcher'' folder in ''Program Files'' can be copied over as-is to the Wine prefix; you don't need to log-in but ideally run it once after installation for it to update to the latest version)) * See [[games;linux;wine;jagex_launcher|Jagex Launcher Installer]] notes for installer testing ==== Google Drive ==== * [[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ycvSFHTCXNQ7kXnPTS8XHFg__qgfB2ti/view?usp=sharing|Google Drive]] link to a clean ''Jagex Launcher'' folder with SHA256 * Use this if at all unsure sha256sum ~/'Downloads/20240509-Jagex-Launcher.zip' | grep 'bc143b9cafbf6d735193d64e486be5015d4a4e857c61329e1a49f7143987789d' > '/dev/null' && unzip -b -o -qq ~/'Downloads/20240509-Jagex-Launcher.zip' -d ~/'.wine/RuneScape/drive_c/Program Files' && sync gio open ~/'.wine/RuneScape/drive_c/Program Files' ==== Manual ==== * Expects something like ''~/Downloads/20230920-Jagex-Launcher.zip'' with any date * The top-level of the archive should be the ''Jagex Launcher'' folder ((should have file contents like ''20240206-Jagex-Launcher.zip/Jagex Launcher/JagexLauncher.exe'')) unzip -b -o -qq ~/'Downloads/'*'Jagex'*'Launcher.zip' -d ~/'.wine/RuneScape/drive_c/Program Files' && sync gio open ~/'.wine/RuneScape/drive_c/Program Files' ===== RuneScape ===== ==== Jagex Launcher ==== * Update launcher if prompted, log-in, select RuneScape -> Install * Fully-exit Jagex Launcher after installation mkdir -p ~/'.wine/RuneScape/dxvk_shader_cache' && cd ~/'.wine/RuneScape/drive_c/Program Files/Jagex Launcher' && MESA_SHADER_CACHE_DIR=~/'.wine/RuneScape' DXVK_STATE_CACHE_PATH=~/'.wine/RuneScape/dxvk_shader_cache' WINEPREFIX=~/'.wine/RuneScape' wine ~/'.wine/RuneScape/drive_c/Program Files/Jagex Launcher/JagexLauncher.exe' --disable-gpu --disable-software-rasterizer ==== RuneScape ==== * [[#version_check|Version-check]] occasionally, as this currently expects ''runescape-launcher_2.2.11_amd64.deb'' * Last tested: 2024/04/03 on Fedora 39 cd ~ && rm -Rf ~/'.runescape' ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/launcher' ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/updater' ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/RuneScape/GlobalSettings.jcache' ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/RuneScape/Settings.jcache' ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/RuneScape/ShaderManager.jcache' ~/'.local/share/icons/hicolor/'*'/apps/runescape.png' ~/'.local/share/applications/RuneScape.desktop' '/tmp/runescape' && mkdir -p ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/updater' '/tmp/runescape' && wget -O '/tmp/runescape/runescape-launcher-amd64.deb' 'https://content.runescape.com/downloads/ubuntu/pool/non-free/r/runescape-launcher/runescape-launcher_2.2.11_amd64.deb' && unar -o '/tmp/runescape' '/tmp/runescape/runescape-launcher-amd64.deb' && unar -o '/tmp/runescape' '/tmp/runescape/runescape-launcher-amd64/data.tar.xz' && cp '/tmp/runescape/data/usr/bin/runescape-launcher' '/tmp/runescape/data/usr/share/games/runescape-launcher/runescape' ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/updater' && cp -R '/tmp/runescape/data/usr/share/icons' ~/'.local/share' && ls ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/updater/runescape' ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/updater/runescape-launcher' > '/dev/null' && rm -Rf '/tmp/runescape' && ln --backup --symbolic --force ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/updater/runescape-launcher' ~/'.wine/RuneScape/drive_c/Program Files/Jagex Launcher/Games/RuneScape/RuneScape.exe' && sync ===== runescape-launcher ===== * Minor changes to the current ''runescape-launcher'' from ''2.2.10'' ((the launcher is changed to run ''runescape'' from it's working directory instead of in ''/usr/share/..'')) * :!: Choose a graphics preset below to paste under ''# Custom'' and above ''unset XMODIFIERS'' nano ~/'.wine/RuneScape/Jagex/updater/runescape-launcher' #!/bin/sh if [ -z $1 ];
