@txtsd You can't no longer be able to play with this pkg. You need to use the Jagex Launcher or you can use Steam with Proton.

Edit: Bolt is a third-party implementation of the Jagex Launcher that can be found here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bolt-launcher

The GUI label is intentionally 2.2.4, this is related to it being a Linux-only launcher update, sorry if this causes any confusion

rs2client is coredumping on launch. What do I do?

I was able to fix the audio issues with pipewire by commenting out export PULSE_LATENCY_MSEC=100 from /usr/bin/runescape-launcher and adding application specific properties to pipewire-pulse.conf

{
    # runescape 3 audio fix
    matches = [ { application.process.binary = "rs2client" } ]
    actions = { update-props = { pulse.min.req = 1024/48000 } }
}

I have the same audio issues - steam launcher works fine for me but it is a bit more laggy so I would prefer this one overall. Occasionally I could get it to launch without audio choppiness, but it was never consistent. I have tried setting the audio delay to 60, 100, 120, 200, none of them made a difference. I use pipewire for audio. I think when I was still using pulse audio I remember it working fine but with pipewire it is choppy. I haven’t verified this recently though.

The audio is really glitchy for me. Something to do with pipewire latency but not really sure. Couldn't resolve it so I went with steam/proton.

@leo_sk: Was it just that one library, not any others? What AUR helper are you using? Do you have a nonstandard Cairo installed?

I was getting the error:

Checking runescape-launcher dependencies...
Resolving dependencies...
Warning: cannot resolve "libcairo.so.2=0", a dependency of "runescape-launcher"
Failed to prepare transaction:
could not satisfy dependencies:
- unable to satisfy dependency 'libcairo.so.2=0' required by runescape-launcher
Transaction cancelled.

So i removed line libcairo.so=2 and it built successfully and works properly

I got error "missing libcrypto.so.1.1" so I installed openssl-1.1 and that fixed it.

EDIT: This has been fixed, thanks to who did fix it.

Getting this error while building. Anyone know why this is?

Doesn't really work under Wayland (neither Xwayland), I get libEGL warning: DRI2: failed to create dri screen and it falls back to software rendering. Not sure if it's a Jagex problem or if there's something I could do on my end to get it working.
