| * On the first OSRS client launch, it may start an invisible game window; Close ''osclient.exe'' and re-launch it from Jagex Launcher ((on Windows this seems to manifests as a //visible// game window that doesn't appear in the taskbar; OSRS defies typical window-management logic :p presumably when it tries to define a default window position on first-launch)) | * On the first OSRS client launch, it may start an invisible game window; Close ''osclient.exe'' and re-launch it from Jagex Launcher ((on Windows this seems to manifests as a //visible// game window that doesn't appear in the taskbar; OSRS defies typical window-management logic :p presumably when it tries to define a default window position on first-launch)) |
| * :!: When first launching OSRS after installation, at the lobby before pressing Play Now, allow OSRS to download its full data cache ((2024/04/29: It downloads around 500 KB/s and bandwidth can be observed through GNOME System Monitor; should be done within a few minutes)) | * :!: When first launching OSRS after installation, at the lobby before pressing Play Now, allow OSRS to download its full data cache ((2024/04/29: It downloads around 500 KB/s and bandwidth can be observed through GNOME System Monitor; should be done within a few minutes)) |

| ====== 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)) | |
| * 2024/04: The Jagex Launcher tray icon was fine on Xfce and KDE Plasma 6, so presumably this only applies to GNOME | |
