    Default [Guide] Old School in the Official Jagex Launcher

    I just screwed around and found out this simple, but effective method. Due to how this works, Jagex must be on the verge of releasing their client soon.

    This "guide" is primarily written for the Mac OSX version of the launcher; this "guide" can also be applied to a *nix distribution.
    The Windows version of the launcher (which I bet most of you use) I need to look more into, though the underlying change should be the same.

    Mac OSX (written using 10.7 - Lion):
    1. Make another copy of the RuneScape.app application that you downloaded from the official RuneScape site.
    2. Right-click on the copy of RuneScape.app, and select the "Show Package Contents" option.
    3. Navigate into the "Contents" folder.
    4. Open Info.plist in TextEdit, or your plain text editor of choice.
    5. Locate the line after "<key>com.jagex.config</key>". It should look something like: "http://www.runescape.com/k=3/l=$(Language:0)/jav_config.ws".
    6. Replace the subdomain (www) with "oldschool".
    7. That line should now look something like: "<string>http://oldschool.runescape.com/k=3/l=$(Language:0)/jav_config.ws</string>".
    8. Save and close Info.plist.
    9. Open the edited RuneScape.app and enjoy!


    *nix:
    This section implies you are using the instructions listed on the RuneScape Wiki.
    1. Open your executable script in your plain text editor of choice.
    2. Replace all instances of "www.runescape.com" with "oldschool.runescape.com".
    3. Save and close your executable script.
    4. Run your new script and enjoy!


    Edit: Thanks to this message (yesterday) on the old school homepage which I neglected to notice

    it seems that this guide is pretty much the same thing. This is the time where I would usually delete this post, but I can't anyways.
