>>2309588kinda crazy how fast "best" imploded after HH called the furries out
HH once again samefagging himself to make himself relevant due to his narcissist craving for attention.Nobody cared when he incessantly shilled the QUITPILL then came back with his head hung in shame when nobody followed him.Nobody cared when his cc died, they just wanted to join an active one regardless the name.And nobody cared when the furries stopped playing or jumped ship, and to think HH had any effect on them is like thinking /pol/ got Trump elected.
>>2309779Lol he mad
I love HH each passing day. His existence makes furry fags on the server SEETHE and SELF DESTRUCT and it is GLORIOUS. Reminder he solo'd Best, Wew, and the Estonians in the latest PKing FFA event, making him the best PKer on the server by far.
HH
>>2309779Ossifag is it you? Hh decimated your gay little cc, how does it make you feel? Are you going to cry little man? No wonder you haven't shown your face on the server in months, you must be seething out of your mind.

I was playing basketball today when I got a text from my sister. My father passed away. He showed me Runescape 2 as a kid and that's why it's my favorite game of all time. When they found him he apparently had Vscape loaded up on his computer before passing. It hurts so much knowing he won't be here for the future of the game. /vsg/ thank you for keeping RS2 content going over the years throughout my teenage years into adulthood. Reminds me of him every time a post pops up, now, even more so. Dad, if your up there I love you and every Ironman (his fav class) I make is gonna be named after you. His name was Doug.

>>2309014I know you were trying to tell me something but I can let it go. I had the thought that there were no genuine feelings behind it and you were just trying to stop me from hurting myself, but it only made it worse. After we talked and I pushed you away, when you were near me I felt like I was going to cry. At the party tears started coming out of my eyes. I wasn't crying, they were just coming out. I was sitting with our friend and scared her. She got me some fruit and we shared a drink. Even today I almost cried when you were near me. I desperately want to move on but it never ends. For the longest time I wanted to be your friend and get to know you beneath a surface level. I don't care about the persona you put on in social settings, I wanted to know who you really were underneath it all. I saw a glimpse of it and it made me awestruck. I don't know if you remember when we had that talk.I wish we had never met so I could live in blissful ignorance.

how viable is blast furnace for steel bars to make cannonballs afterwards?
>>2416981WAGMI bro.
I have a missive from `algebraist`, as he is called on Discord. jof deserves to have his sister raped repeatedly and violently. This is all.
>>2431954Jofzzlszzl is a faggot redditor who never played vscape, hates 4chan, and only was made mod due to being Nefarian's friend.Which explains why the discord is full of furry and BBC porn from trannies who don't play.
>>2432435Embarrassing.Also, here are some pills for you to take anon!
>>2431354Completely, but since there's no chest there you're pretty much forced to trade the ore seller there to bank your ores. Not to mention, you'd have to bank the bars you withdraw. All to save one coal. Considering nats are pretty cheap you're better off casting superheat item.
>>2432934say that I mine iron ore myself for the steel bars, would it still be better to use blast furnace than gathering all the mats yourself?
>>2432946If you have all the iron and coal, you're better off doing 9 bars at a time in edge. Superheating is stupid.Making steel at blast is kinda tedious and mediocre, so only do it if u have a hateboner for mining
ogbyrdman i hope ur doing well in lifeur a cool dude
sex
im kojima
>>2432946When you mine iron ore you make a profit and gain mining xp. If you were to buy iron ore and or coal and make steel bars you'd profit. It does not change what the optimal means of production is for steel bars. Considering one iron ore sells for more than two coal BF is likely a worse option than regular smelting due to the reduction in cost being so low it doesn't outperform the increase of production of superheat or even regular smelting.>>2432946How much are you plugging a steel bar at?https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Steel_bar#Creation3ticks a cast you'd easily pay for the nature rune by outproducing. Not even taking into account the time save which can be used anywhere else.

be honest. is this game dead? how many troons and redditor?
>>2439503player count is a little down as of recently, but there aren't many troons outside of the discord and if there are redditors, they mostly play ironman and shut up. half the server is ironmen who turn global chat off.
>>2439503Not dead, and no problems with troons or redditors, but on occasion there are schizophrenics, autists, and drunks in global chat. When cancer appears right click on the "Global" tab at the bottom of the chatbox and choose hide, then only turn global on whenever you are buying or selling something.

I have returned with a missive from `algebraist`."Jof needs to stop raping his sister."I am Charli XCX and I approve this message, because Jof must get off Discord and stop raping his sister.
>>2442004I read yell but assume most people actually playing the game (such as newfrens) don't want a random guy flooding their chatbox with off-topic spam aimed at nobody in particular. Funposting is different than sharing an untreated mental disorder or endless inane takes with everyone, but to each their own.

>>2444776you do know that you can scan programs for viruses online before running them right?
>>2444812again, i am honestly at a point in my life where i have seen through the illusion of ownership. it may sound like cope but it's the truth. my official runescape saves are not even my property. they are jagex's property. and guess what? even their property is contingent on the server nor corrupting. would this happen? unlikely, but it could. online mmo game saves do not matter.

Pickles I'm sorry for all the bad bug reports I sent you I only realized they were not actually bugs after I sent them to you so while I don't know why vidyascape.org no longer exists please turn it back on, thank you.
>>2452390It's gone, the domain was seized under UDRP arbitration. If you read the report it was a law firm on Jagex's behalf. The boomers at the arbitration board think it's similar enough to cause economic harm to Jagex (as if vidyascapers are paying money for anything lol).
>>2452540>look into it>https://udrp.adr.eu/decisions/detail?id=699c32ddac085d8f860f49d2I hope you're not serious but that would explain why the website is gone. Still, how can having "-scape" in the name be enough to seize everything without warning? If true I hope the godmods have a backup and call it vidyascaype with a really tiny "y" out of spite.
>>2452540>jagex thinking they're getting a cent of /v/idyascape player's SSI checks
>>2452647They mention economic harm outright, at the end of the day money talks.>corresponds to using the disputed domain name to intentionally attract, for commercial gain, Internet users to its website by creating a likelihood of confusion with the Complainant’s trade marks as to the source, sponsorship, affiliation or endorsement of the website under paragraph 4(b)(iv) of the Policy and it shows the registration and use of the disputed domain name in bad faithIt's more than -scape, they call out the use of RS assets>the Panel finds that there is evidence that the Respondent had at the least copied various elements from the Complainant's Old School RuneScape game, if not based its game on the Complainant's gameA couple other RSPS were also claimed, so it wasn't targeted but they went after small ones which are less likely to fight back.I just don't get why actual paypig OSRSPS like Alora still last. It must be hosted in no fucks given countries.
>>2452677>They mention economic harm outright>>corresponds to using the disputed domain name to intentionally attract, FOR COMMERCIAL GAINThey cannot prove intention and there was no commercial gain so this is pure dogshit.>copied various elements from the Complainant's Old School RuneScape gameWhile this is almost a reasonable claim OSRS is not the original Runescape 2 as RS2 was shut down permanently. Vidyascape preserved the concept of a different game entirely (Runescape 2) by building their own interpretation of it from the ground up. Runescape 2 was abandoned by Jagex as they viewed it as profitless so Vidyascape developers preserved the lost media entirely for free as an independent passion project strictly for a niche group of devoted fans of the lost media. In short, no OSRS elements were actually copied, but rather OSRS copied Runescape 2 elements which is not the point of contention here.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFHthsmwCZU
what now
>>2451891double gem rolls are so comfy, especially getting a diamond each time>>2452776based analysis. i always thought vplace was an online video game using widely and freely available runescape 2 assets, whose design philosophy prioritized making things work similarly to what's depicted in old runescape 2 fan media. i don't see how that could possibly relate to oldschool runescape. i thought OSRS was a game where you got to vote in endless elections that are always ignored, and click things like "the chambers of zarek"
bro he prob just forgot to renew the domain chill out. although there is a very real possibility vscape got shut down. but i should mention that it's far more likely 2004scape would get shut down than this server. 2004scape is "technically legal" since it's emulation. but it's still jagex's ip and they can in fact shut them down. like any of these preservation servers.
>>2453285no, jagex (british) decided to complain to a fake internet court (czech) to illegally steal american property (the .org domain). they're basically denying american citizens of their rights issued by divine mandate, and we should probably invade england because apparently they didn't get the memo in 1775 or 1812
I wish hobgoblins dropped med clues
>>2453259Vscape unironically is a unique interpretation and imaginative recreation of 2007 Runescape 2 which has nothing to do with OSRS or any of its updates. Any resemblance to OSRS is entirely coincidental.
>>2453631lol. it sounds good but its extremely obvious pickles somehow scraped osrs code and simply altered the game to seem like actual 2007. for what it's worth it was a good idea.
>>2453644>source: my assYou can't prove this beyond a reasonable doubt because the code is closed source. From my perspective it's extremely obvious that Pickles is an extremely talented developer that has the capacity to recreate 2007 Runescape 2 using skill alone. It was not a complex game even for its time and its graphics are quite simple. Much of Runescape 2's data--from skill information to graphics--has been recorded publicly which was easily able to be used as a reference point to recreate it. Any arguments to the contrary are an assumption that lacks evidence and slanders Pickles needlessly.
>>2453686and yet you can't TRULY prove that he didn't just scrape the code from an early 2013 build of OSRS and them modify it to play similarly to 2007 RS. maybe we're both right.
>>2453644nah, it uses 2006Remade source, you can see it by opening old client files in winrar. also early screenshots show it in the login message
>>2453631yeah i know, it's a completely original game based on a set of historical assets that are widely available. need a mid-2000s dragon but can't 3D model? you're in luck, people are autistically cataloguing every version of the runescape 2 cache that has ever been downloaded, just use those to make your game>>2453644pickles personally confirmed to me that actual runescape source code has never been meaningfully leaked. i directly asked him this question once, and if it ever was leaked, which i seriously doubt because jagex requires you to amputate a finger every time you log into your work laptop, it is a cybersecurity fault on their part. so basically irrelevant

>>2453259i didn't know you could technically successfully roll the mining gem drop table more than once before the ore is mined though, which just happened
>>2453686so since this post is generated does it mean the game is running on generated code too?
Why is my client not updating to allow me to login?

Server dead? I've never seen this much downtime before

>>2453644why are you lying by pretending like pickles "scraped osrs code" (assuming this actually means "reverse engineered runescape client bytecode and network packet protocols") when the runescape private server scene has existed since the 2000s? and anyone who wanted to spin up their own would just use existing bases?>>2453686why are you pretending like pickles personally opened up a blank java project one day and started writing original code that emulated runescape's behaviors and look*, given the points i brought up above?you people write such annoying posts and i feel like i have to fall for them because someone less informed might fall for them*: this is closer to what the lost city project does, except obviously the artistic assets are literally redistributions of jagex's ip. the cache is what holds those and is what computers downloaded to save on bandwidth and is what is archived by the runescape archive project
>>2455817>why are you pretending like pickles personally...Was the pic and lawyerspeak not clear enough for you? That post >>2453686 is not intending to strictly lay out the facts or trick anons. It's a pretend legal argument used to defend Vscape from the law using that other anon's post as a hypothetical example of an opposition argument. Modern law is not simply a matter of having all the facts autistically laid out and everyone agrees on what the right thing is, sadly.
>>2455817>why are you lying by pretending like pickles "scraped osrs code"he did not use any jagex intellectual property, unless you count a portion of the graphical assets used in the game, but those can be downloaded for free here and many, many other places so that's not the issue:https://archive.openrs2.org/cachesi directly asked him once if jagex ever had a source code leak and they did not. so it's not even possible to create a mouse pointer based MMO using stolen jagex code. i actually believe that vplace is based in part on 09place (fixed it for them) due to one time, vplace's admin command help screens were not permissioned, so i probed the catalogue trying to determine exactly what powers the admins had:https://cdn.2009scape.org/wiki/user_guides/server_commands?s[]=commandsin general, the vplace admins are reasonably forthcoming with tech info about their project, provided you're genuinely curious and not likely to be a malicious actor. the whole drama is that jagex used a fake court (europe doesn't even use the same legal system as the commonwealth) to illegally steal american property based on a fake and mentally retarded claim that they exclusively own words like landscape, hardscape, moonscape, possibly even garlic scape, etc.
In a few months when we actually need a new thread we may have to change to /vpg/ or something.
hello?how do I get to the new site? someone post it
>>2456024pretty sure the devs just look at every runescape related repo and stea- take heavy inspiration from their code
>>2456197>>2456290>they actually followed through on that "scape" copyright bullshit
>>2456234sure, but i'm not gonna complain if they technically violated the AGPL by not open-sourcing their implementation of some 09place admin command or whatever. i'll leave that particular form of autistic screeching to /g/
I can't download the launcher or the apk just get 404
>>2455703so far the new download link is only available in the discord server, yes

he became this upset over not being replied to with a "hi" once and has since been on a quest to give me a reason to never reply to nor care about this irrelevant gay nobody ever again
>>2456234honestly the contrast between being against open-sourcing the server due to freeloaders, kikes, venezuelans and whoever else and then doing the job of multiple other server owners by combining their work into one 'complete' server instead of dying out before they're done re-implementing the basics for the n'th time would be quite something to think about
>>2457957same, but standalone works fine>>2458011>download link was only announced in the discord servermakes no sense to me but at least non-groomers can find the real site now>>2458040i don't know about the situation you're in but i'm pretty sure a few vplacers think that's a form of proper greeting these days. recently a player i think i get along with and later another player i didn't even know said that to me without any reason to do so apart from the lulz i assume
how about vrealm? bit more evocative than "place" (read with a dull voice)
vidyapond(with frogs)vidyaswamp(with frogs)vidyatoads(frogs)frogswamp(frogs)frogpond(frogs)swamptoads(frogs)here are my ideas for renaming the server
>>2459583vidyatoads is cool because its also homage to battletoads
it's a shame how barren and kind of disrespectful the rsps preservation scene is. hot take, something like 2004scape would be exponentially better if it offered some 5x or 10x xp worlds and no discord requirement. vscape would also be better if we had a 5x or 10x xp world.that's just my hot take though. you can still have your base 2.25x xp world though. idk bro rsps scenes will never thrive cause of "prestige" there is no prestige in an rsps just let us have fun. it will be cool when the lost city team preserves every era of rs. that is apparently their goal. 2004-2012. idk if they are gonna do years after 2012 but yeah.
>>2459593ive played a ton of 5-10x servers and it really just feels like slop and a lot of them are a buggy messthe authentic(tm) experience is what drives people both to play and develop it
cant log in on both the new client and website is that just me or is it still down completely
DED
>>2459629you need to download a new client from vidyaplace
its still down completely. might be a blessing in disguise. lost city team is working to preserve all eras anyway. you WILL have a lost city monopoly!!
>>2459687i did it just stalls and i have to force close it with task manager lol
>>2459714but i can't say nigger there
This could be an opportunity to cleanse all OSRS elements and rebirth stronger than ever For instance, the ability to see what grimy herb is before you clean it is an OSRS feature, not pre-OSRS. Let me scam my best friends again! I used to identify the Ranarrs and sell them separately and sell all my unid guams for 1K each. Yes it's antisocial, no I don't think it was intended to be that way, but that was pre-OSRS era and we have to be faithful to that.
>>2459843and they told me pickles didn't scrape the osrs code. you just proved my point exactly. it's an osrs feature so how did it creep its way in?
>>2459857You can just look things up on the wiki instead of making shit up, retard.
>>2459857they just... wrote it in...you know what fuck this, elaborate on exactly what you mean by "scrape osrs code"be as specific as you can be
>>2459925why would he write in osrs features when vidyascape touts itself as a 2007 """remake"""?genuinely asking
>>2459959>genuinely askinglook at>>2459918
>>2460016so you lied im confused
you're trolling bro i'm doneand you still haven't specified what "scraping osrs code" meansbecause it's just buzzwords you barely understand enough to put together in a sentence
>>2458040>>2459323videography is known to greet players with "nigger," which is a fairly common way to greet players. it's so cliche i ended up naming my player-owned cat "ginger" to make the rat pits more interesting>>2459857>>2459959>scrape the osrs codeyou don't even have a basic comprehension of how computer networks function. what exactly does "scraping the code" even mean, and what specific implications would it have for implementing a backend server? (assuming pickles has a magic ability to decrypt OSRS network traffic, which presumably uses stronger crypto than the old dipshittery involving using DES/RC4 or whatever, with a copypasta copyright notice as the symmetric key)
my flesh is weak
>>2460509hey cloaca, jagex's protocols are well known as you can imaginehttps://github.com/blurite/rsproxhttps://github.com/2004Scape/Server/wiki/Using-rsprox-for-Development-Purposesby the way, vscape devs did scrape some data from osrs, namely quest dialogue they made a runelite fork with their own plugin to play through the original quests in a new account and transcribe all the dialogue it came across of for their own usethere are screenshots of runescript code (server code leaked by devs/blogposts) and dumps of clientscript code and configs (come bundled with the game client)https://github.com/RuneStar/leakshttps://github.com/Joshua-F/osrs-dumps/yet it's much more believable to think that they pick and chose what specific content they want to integrate into their version of the game and what to notyou don't just go ok ctrl+c osrs and ctrl+v into vscape and woops accidentally left in the inferno. retard
>>2458029Why are you praying magic? They do ranged and melee damage.
so we dead or what?
my cracked theory is that versionfag is pickles shitposting under an alter ego
>>2461263vidyaplace
>>2461263I am flawlessly playing
>>2459323humor as shit as their skin color
>>2459583how about vidyacope?
>>2459857by being as faithful and genuine of a recreation as a tranny's assumed gender
>>2461153sir, this is vscape, here we run gwd krill masses where everyone prays against ranged on a melee & magic using boss
It's more like:>chuds like pikol et al. take documentation that other chuds compiled on RS's "protocol", plus their own research of Jagex's client slop, to write original code to re-implement the rules of GielinorNoone cares if they were more clever about capturing quest dialogue than manually transcribing. Fuck lawyers, INCEL PRIDE WORLDWIDE.
>>2461714That makes sense. All the other bosses have multi-target attacks but Kril only targets one guy, so you just have to pray against the most dangerous bodyguard on your dragonhide. You're not very smart, are you?
>>2462418>(...) "so you just have to pray against the most dangerous bodyguard on your dragonhide." (...)that would make sense if everyone wasn't using melee in melee gear, including armor
>>2460669you mean i can write a bot that crawls a server and records all the network requests to infer how the backend works? maybe that's what you mean by "scraping the code"? it's hard to tell because talking about "scraping code" as if recording network chatter magically spits out the original source code, is retarded
>>2462937>maybe that's what you mean by "scraping the code"?maybe that's what HE means by that, i was explaining one possible interpretation where they literally played the game and scraped quest dialogue similarly to how you'd programmatically scrape data from a webpagei did it to show that there WAS a possible good answer to my question of what he meant by that, which i didn't expect to receive because obviously he was using terms he didn't understandalso there's already known, well researched inferences on how the backend workshttps://github.com/data-dependent/osrs-guides/blob/master/skilling.mdhttps://github.com/LostCityRS/Engine2007/blob/main/src/engine/World.ts#L24
>>2462969yeah i guess. i was understandably confused because using a nonsense term to imply stealing runescape source code makes no sense. there's a fuck ton of boring-ass tl;dr shit about how ticks work and what the mechanics of this or that are. my thought was that if the source code ever leaked, there's no point to endlessly speculate about all this shit because the answer would be right there. then it'd be reasonable to humor the possibility that vplace was committing some kind of crime. if jagex didn't want people poking and prodding at how runescape works, they should not have released runescape. btw, this is what was trademarked. it doesn't look like the suffix "scape" to me, it looks like part of a stylized logo that vplace, to the best of my knowledge, has never used
>>2463255source? are you sure it's the only thing that was trademarked?
>>2463643yuurin posted the trademark number "UK00004247316" on cuckcord that leads here:https://www.ipo.gov.uk/t-tmj/tm-journals/2025-037/UK00004247316.htmlthe image is visible on that page, and the page links to here:https://trademarks.ipo.gov.uk/ipo-tmcase/page/Results/1/UK00004247316applied for on 2025-08-11, granted on 2025-11-21i have no idea what's wrong with england if they're so confused about what a "trademark" is, that they'd grant a registration number for literally half a logothe service isn't called "scape," and that suffix isn't even unique to runescape. i can imagine taking legal action if someone made a service called "airbnb" or "facebook" using the same word in a different fonti guess it's technically illegal to tend someone's garden in the UK and dare to call yourself a landscaper. cuck nation
>>2463748there's more herehttps://trademarks.ipo.gov.uk/ipo-tmowner/page/search?id=1715781&domain=1https://trademarks.ipo.gov.uk/ipo-tmowner/page/search?id=1336415&domain=1
>>2463748it's because the EU is cucked
>>2463797jagex comes off as extremely autistic and even more retarded now, thanks. i notice they misspelled their own fucking pretend word by trademarking "eldinis" instead of "elidinis" (robes of):https://trademarks.ipo.gov.uk/ipo-tmcase/page/Results/1/UK00004099130they also trademarked the word "abyssal," which of course is a dictionary word, with no unique styling at all:https://trademarks.ipo.gov.uk/ipo-tmcase/page/Results/1/UK00004117880i could see their point if the vidyascape logo was "vidya" written on rocks, with a sword going through it, and "scape" also written on rocks. but i'm not a lawyer, nor do i care that much about dysfunctional vassal states that harbor muslim rape gangs
actually, now i'm wondering if it's possible to DoS jagex's legal team by writing a script that extracts each unique word from the dialogue of various open-source runescape clones, hits some dictionary API trying to look them up, and if the word isn't be defined, automatically emailing them a notice that someone is infringing using that word. it costs £99 to reserve each copyright for 10 years, and i'm assuming you could easily find 10k+ nonsense words like neitiznot, guthan, falador, etc., potentially imposing a million GBP minimum every decade. at the very least, it'd increase the SNR so much that finding legit infringement becomes exponentially harder
yea stop having ideas
can't turn off the brain, sorry. i remember interviewing for a side job where their main income came through affiliate links to streaming services (it was basically a mid-tier movie search engine). i noticed they had no account email verification and asked the developer, who was really a graphic designer, what's stopping me from registering thousands of accounts that crawled the catalogue clicking on every single link, to get their accounts pulled for AUP violations? interestingly, the site is still up, but it no longer has any affiliate links. post theme:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2g5Hz17C4is
