  • The graphics-related environment variables are for a Intel GMA 4500MHD GPU that barely reports OpenGL 2.0
  • :!: MESA_GLSL_VERSION_OVERRIDE is required, and 130 is the lowest NXT will allow
  • :!: MESA_GL_VERSION_OVERRIDE can be 2.1, but renderer in dev console doesn't expose GL extensions 2)
  • :!: This computer requires graphics settings to be Low for any kind of playable FPS

Settings

Game

Music Player

Camera

  • DB Browser for SQLite → Settings.jcache
  • Browse Data → Table: vt-varc → KEY 1971 → DATA
  • Set DATA for KEY 1971 to NULL and restart client to have default camera distance 5)
  • In-game → Settings → Gameplay → General → Game Interaction → [x] Lock zoom to prevent accidental changes
sqlitebrowser ~/'.steam/steam/steamapps/common/RuneScape/RuneScape/Settings.jcache'

Developer Console

GNOME Keybind

  • Press Alt + ~ to access the console in-game
  • This needs ran with GNOME since it binds Alt + ~ by-default
gsettings set 'org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings' 'switch-group' "['disabled']"

Keybind Reset

gsettings reset 'org.gnome.desktop.wm.keybindings' 'switch-group'

Commands

  • Type help to see commands
  • :!: displayfps being displayed lowers performance noticeably, and it may be better to use GALLIUM_HUD if possible for performance statistics

1)
this allows selecting MSAA, but GPU performance for MSAA is unideal; outside of this there's no known benefit
2)
it's unknown if this causes any issues or improves anything
3)
if using nouveau, adapt Intel or AMD environment variables
4)
Intel/AMD integrated GPU primary + NVIDIA dedicated/discrete GPU on-demand secondary, e.g. Intel UHD 630 + NVIDIA GTX 1060
5)
the default value as of 2021/01/27 is 4730
