Runeception - Runescape Tool belt

[CENTER][/CENTER]

Runeception is an autoupdating runescape loader with plugin utilities such as: highscore lookup, skill guides, live map viewer, mp3 music player, integrated chat system, custom skins, alarm updates, screen shots, and much much more. Many plugins will be added as the project progresses. The initial versions will be very basic and built upon.

[CENTER][size=14pt]Runeception : Launch A (Version 1.1.3)[/size][/CENTER]

Temporary File Location: http://runeception.netne.net/Runeception.jar

Github: https://github.com/Emilah/Runeception

Double click the executable jar file. Your first run will have no splash screen and will appear to be doing ‘nothing’ shortly while Runeception downloads all the needed files you need for the client to work. If you would like to check these files, they are in your home directory /Runeception/.

After your first initial launch, the sprites needed will have been downloaded and you will see your launch screen.

Information Regarding Auto Updating:
Today I was caught in a mess of work and didn’t get as far as I wished to. Here is how you get connected with us.

Find your Runeception files located in your home directory /Runeception/. Right click on your Runeception.jar file and click create short cut.
[CENTER][/CENTER]

Create a shortcut file named “Runeception” and drag it to your desktop.

[CENTER][/CENTER]

You should now use this file for execution. You should be connected for every upcoming update.

Please note, that this is Launch A. You may be required to redownload files as time progresses to increase the functionality of our client.

Report any found glitches and problems on this project page.
(PLEASE NOTE: Music Player has some issues. Button fixes will come hopefully in the upcoming week)

To use the highscores without problems with the client. Click the drop down guides then High Scores.

Using the Music Player Plugin:

Upon Finishing that process, click play and enjoy!

so its like swiftkit, except against the jagex tos?

It will exceed Swiftkit quite fast. They load their whole client through a browser, which is in turn, very ugly. This utilities the applet + will be much easier for future plugins that eventually users will be able to submit through an API coming soon.

Can you explain what benefits a user would have from using this instead of Swiftkit? The features you listed seem to be no different than those that Swiftkit offers :o

Could you explain the “live map viewer”?

Those are future plugins that are planned. The live map viewer will load similar to Runescape’s own map but in a separate panel so you can enjoy your game experience while still planning your next navigation strategy.

Swift kit -> Visual Basic browser of Runescape’s homepage. No different than having google chrome and having multiple tabs open for Zybez.
Runeception->Java (all platforms not just Windows), loads Applet so no advertisements. Allows for speedy and light weight plugins.

I think the convenience of having all the tools in the same window as Runescape is quite nice. Arguably, the most powerful tool within Swiftkit is the irc client. With basic irc bots like runescript, gerty, and others, things like checking stats, calculating prices, comparing players etc, is as easy as typing in the command

Personally, I could never go back to opening calculators and highscore pages. I think doing so would be a step backwards :stuck_out_tongue:

Also, a major part of Swiftkits success is the fact that it is not blacklisted by Jagex(I was going to say approved, but I don’t think they actually “approve” it, it just meets the requirements that a 3rd party client must), and therefore players aren’t afraid to use it. If your client doesn’t meet Jagex requirements, a large portion of players would avoid it completely even if it is safe to use

Well that is entirely their opinion on the matter. I’m offering a more comfortable way of playing to members, if they don’t wish to use it, I don’t really mind. The fact that Runescape has rules disallowing the use of advert blockers, is rather silly. Also, unless Swiftkit monitors their IRC channels 24/7, they are abusing Runescape’s rules regarding external chatbox usage and rules abiding to Runescape’s TOS. But as I said, I’m doing this project regardless. I think it is beneficial to players and if it helps others, I’m all for doing it.

they used to have their own client as I recall but jagex made a fuss about REMOVING THE ADVERTISEMENTS. your client breaks the terms and conditions.

That always confused me because surely running adblock in chrome/firefox is equally against the ToS?

Remember the days when SwiftKit didn’t exist, and SytheScape, BjorkScape (my VB Client HURR DURR) and that guy Cheater’s client reigned supreme? They were just called world switchers back then.

Good times…

Neways, Jagex will probably rage at this.

You forgot CruelClient v3.

i fail to see a point in this in this day and age

Jagex won’t rage until people start using it, people won’t start using it until the tos is followed. So the way forward is to follow the tos.

[quote=“c|p, post:12, topic:436076”]You forgot CruelClient v3.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hq9ZgPhfhzc[/quote]That didnt exist when i started tho, it came later.

We fucked around with this in like 2004

sythescape! i remember using that for scar… i remember mopar’s hp/movable camera client too

modified clients are awesome for playing on :stuck_out_tongue: I believe it was the rsbot client(I’m sure it wasn’t the first to have it) that had options to do all sorts of stuff, could turn off npcs or other players, boundaries etc, so they just weren’t rendered at all.

If a client had that today I would surely use it, though I think the only clients that would have it are bot clients

I notice you mentioned github, are you planning on actually putting this up there? I’m curious as to what you use BCEL for.

Yes, sorry. They fixed their webhost issue: https://github.com/Emilah/Runeception

Runeception (On Github) is up to version 1.1.5, client is being update within the next 30 minutes to the newest version.

Edit:

Had to push another revision change, will be at 1.1.6 now.

Edit:

Runeception has updated to version: 1.1.7

New Runeception Users: http://runeception.netne.net/Runeception.jar
Users already in our update system, rerun your client to confirm changes. Report any problems.

Newer content included:

[ul]Basic Numeric Calculator[/ul]

[ul]Runescape Skill/Experience Calculator[/ul]

Enjoy your ban when they finally start checking the context in which the game is loaded (or even check the parent of the applet, really)…
I don’t understand what is so bad about using a browser to load RuneScape, you could just as easy write your own browser implementation to strip the ads if you really find it to be that big of a problem.
