haha that would be pretty wicked sweet, but, alas, RS will never be updated with good graphics...![]()
Won't happen.
Cool to think about, until you remember WoW, GW, 2Moons, etc...

yeah but all those other games are more fantasy, rs is real/fantasy, are u sure it could not happen, jagex could revamp the whole game engine, i so wish they could do it!!!!!
Keep in mind that the programmers at Jagex are mainly java guys (though I hear much of the server code is now C++?), so they'd need a whole new programming team. If they wanted to keep RS2 updated while they worked on this massive project, they'd have to keep their current team, which would cost a lot of money. In the year (or two...or more, because of runescape's massiveness) that it took to develop this 'RS3', Jagex would have lost enormous amounts of money.
It's not a good idea from a business standpoint.
My theory:
Make the 3d engine able to handle more polygons, then make it subdivide all 'old' models by two or three. This would make things look a lot smoother. Then just fix all the objects meant to be pointy or sharp.
Older models would look smoother; newer models would have more detail.

I HAVE WANTED OFFLINE RS FOR AGES lol
Send SMS messages using Simba
Please do not send me a PM asking for help; I will not be able to help you! Post in a relevant thread or make your own! And always remember to search first!
and yeah....off line RS is called moparscape...
Accept that the waters around you have grown.
yeah i guess ur right smartkidz, im sure they have alot of money since rs2 came out they have been doing small graphical updates, technology upgrades fast, i know they dont have as much money as EA, Atari, Activision, or other game producers. but they should save thier money for one big update. rs fans will be amazied for what they could do, if they hire new programmers, and enginners. the graphics NOW(2007) are just breathtaking! they should do something at least by 2009, imaging the graphics the games will have in 2009!!, for example NOW, Need For Speed Pro Street has shader modeler 3.0, if u look at screenshots its amazing!!!!!!!!!!, i dont know anything about Java or c++, im in 9th grade, and im studing for a computer technician..... so i dont know what goes on in java. but rs really needs a graphics update, even the first Counter Strike(which came out before rs) has better graphics than this.......
I think pacman has better graphics than RS
With java, I'm not really sure how much further Jagex can push the RS graphics. In my opinion, they're doing a great job at it now, even though it's terrible when compared to other games.
Another problem is their userbase. Many RS players have old, cheap, or junky computers. These players would be lost if the next version on RS was dx10/download only.
Though if you had the option to use either...now that'd be cool...

yes, i know thier are some poor poeple out there that cant afford a new DX9 card or DX10 for that matter(u would need vista for DX10, i dont even have vista yet lol) but they should keep the java rs for those kind of people, and for the people for have DX9 card and maybe 1.89GHz less or more processors can DL the revamped RS(i have a 2.78GHz processor) but it would be so awesome!
EDIT: ill brb i gtg study so be back in about 40min
dx10 games should work fine with dx9 (albeit a loss of graphics quality).
Also people are working on 'fixing' dx10 for xp.

wow they are working on dx10 video cards for xp, i bet they would need a pci express motherboard, i have an agp video card and agp motherboard, most of the newer video card need a pci express motherboard so...... should we contact jagex about this or no...... cause if not i have another idea which may take at least 2 years to complete
RS Offline would be boss..too bad I don't play RS anymore lol. Like, you train (but it'd be with no competition), and when you get back to interweb territory, it updates the stats?
They would never do that it would be easy to hack and how could they then prevent autoing for example look at diablo 2 so easy to hack that game not saying it would be that bad but theres no reason for them to do that i mean I wouldnt stop them if i had a chance it would be cool but people would hack the hell out of the game if they make it offline. Wow this thead got off topic...
yeah really, we all know how to auto ok, what we dont know is if jagex will get DX9 for rs(for dx10 for that matter)
You guys seem to forget the point, they made runescape javagame, so that anybody could play it, from anywhere, with any crappy machine, without having to download stuff or do installments.
we arnt forgeting the point, they can save the crappy java game, and then put a revamped one up for dl, then a person can choose what to pick, its easy as that
I vote that it's possible, but it won't happen.

its true, if u have some computer brains anything is possible on a computer, u know what we could do, anyone that has a game making experice( NO JAVA C++ Or ANY OF THAT CRAP) we can make our own game, not coping rs in anyway...... i know this guy on a nfs forms that is basically making a new NFS2 from scratch heres the link if u want http://www.nfscars.net/forum/showthread.php?t=20432, guys it can be done, we just need a few computer nerds..... i myself are one a lil........
if it will be done, we willl not copy RS in anyway, we could make our own towns and all that........, if not well we will say when jagex will finally upgrade, it could take a few years or so but IT can be DONE

But then if the graphics were upgraded to dx9, then we wouldn't be able to cheat with rs anymore![]()
hmmm are u sure,that would suck tho, cant u run scar in the backround, or make a new version of scar that will be compadible with it
