 * I don't know, it looks like one. Maybe because you were wearing something that had a glitch. 22:35, 1 July 2008 (UTC)


 * That happened to me too, when I was wearing the Green D'Hide coif. Maybe it should be added as a bug? 06:26, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Necessity of this article
Is this article necessary? It doesn't offer any real content that is not covered in Jagex's own updates or development diaries. Calling it "new graphics" is a mistake - after all, in a few months the graphics will not be new!

That said, maybe the upcoming graphics options do deserve their own article. I'm not trying to disparage anyone's efforts here (there is quite a lot of text in this article). If it should stay (even under a different name) then I will be happy to help improve it. ;-) Leevclarke, AKA Max Bulldog  20:28, 22 June 2008 (UTC)

Perhaps, we should rename the article "High-Detailed Mode" since the new graphics will become the new "High detailed mode" in the future. I am also attempting to fix some of the grammar mistakes as well as add more information. Matt  04:22, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Matt, I agree aswell. We should rename it to "High-Detailed Mode". I'll fix any grammar mistakes you might've missed. Frizkie 04:43, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

I did some major editing. I added pictures aswell. Let me know if I did anything wrong, as that's my first correction I've ever done. Frizkie 05:05, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Very nice job. The page looks much better now. Although I'm not sure if those pictures are entirely legitmate (copyrights and all). Just letting you know, an admin might delete them. But they do look nice. Matt  05:10, 24 June 2008 (UTC)

Yeah I completely forgot. I added a copyright thing at the bottom, if that helps any. I don't know if it does. Ah well. If it doesn't we can link to the actual RS site. Frizkie


 * I'm going to go ahead and move this article to "High-detailed mode" because over three users agree (I agree aswell). Also, I have another question. After the update, shall images be uploaded in png ot jpg. The newer images look quite good in jpg or it might just be my eyes, lol.

 * Yeah, the .jpg pics seem really detailed, but I haven't compared them to .png. I'll put them on my comp and do a little test on image quality. Oh, and thanks for moving the article. [[Image:Abyssal Whip.gif]] Frizkie [[Image:Blue party hat.PNG]] 15:28, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
 * BTW, I didn't see that you redirected the page to High-detailed mode so I did it for you. [[Image:Abyssal Whip.gif]] Frizkie [[Image:Blue party hat.PNG]] 17:15, 24 June 2008 (UTC)


 * If images are in JPG format already, surely you wouldn't really gain anything by make them PNGs. The article is looking much better now, BTW.  ;-)  I've provided links to relevant pages at RuneScape.com rather than transfer the images onto the wiki's servers, as I don't want us just to hijack Jagex's content too much.

 * I see that the page is still not moved, so I'm going to move it as I also agree it should be moved. However, I think it should be called "RuneScape HD" as that is the official name. Aik Hui 06:31, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Can I get verification on something? I just want to know if the new Fullscreen mode is for members. Frizkie 17:29, 30 June 2008 (UTC)
 * I doubt it. The full screen mode would remove the advertisements, and on FunOrb, fullscreen is members-only. 19:32, 30 June 2008 (UTC)

Forums shut down?
It looks like the runescape forums have been shut down. Major lag from ranters maybe? There were like 270 people in there. -- r1ky | Talk | Contributions 17:21, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
 * never mind.. its back on now. -- r1ky | Talk | Contributions 17:24, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

woot
System Update...

We're rebooting the servers to fix several core issues with the OpenGL client and it's memory usage. Previously, players may have crashed when in particularly busy areas such as the Grand Exchange or other popular cities.

Thanks for your patience during this busy time!

Mod Nexus.

Thank god. I kept crashing. Now to enjoy :D -- r1ky | Talk | Contributions 17:25, 1 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Where did you hear that? 17:31, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Sigh..
And all the while I'm at work, reading about the wonderful updates. Though, in my opinion, the "July Graphical Updates" are currently a very hot topic and a big deal, it would seem to me that it would be a rather important article to keep up, at least while people are constantly and actively searching for it. That's just my two gp (coins). Though "RuneScape HD" does have a nice ring to it... Karlis 18:12, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Content of the Hidden update
Does anyone know what are updated in the Hidden update just now?? 11:48, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

They fixed the rune full helmet- it looked like a zamorak full helmet when worn by males. Also, the fire cape no longer looks like a "cheese cape". Idk what the "cheese cape" looks like. Crystal Song 11:55, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

I think they also fixed the thing on female characters were they're body would split while burying bones? 8Ball231 10:35, 3 July 2008 (UTC)

Random events?
On the day of the update, I noticed that there were several random events happening. First, I got taken to the mime, then later, while I was at a party, I went to Frogland. In that same party, two other players were taken away by random events. Coincidence? 14:36, 2 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I've had sandwich lady twice, the frogs, and the army sergeant guy, all today! Leevclarke, AKA Max Bulldog [[Image:Bulldogh.gif]] 02:03, 3 July 2008 (UTC)


 * I've had similar incidents - on the first night I got on I kept getting the tele-error, 4 times in a row, then the security gaurd came twice followed by a dwarf and drill sergeant. Cool/Weird, huh?
