About

An authentic, native open-source Jagex Launcher for Linux designed to replicate the official Windows and macOS client experience with zero Wine or Proton overhead. Key features include: - Native 64-bit execution for RuneScape 3 using official Linux binaries with full hardware acceleration. - Integrated Old School RuneScape multi-client switcher supporting RuneLite, HDOS, and the official client. - One-click launch for RuneScape: Dragonwilds with live Steam RSS patch feeds. - Direct Jagex Account OAuth 2.0 PKCE authentication with built-in Cloudflare Turnstile handling. - Preserves local ~/.runelite configuration, plugins, screenshots, and bank tags. - Zero RAM mode automatically closes the launcher after game start to optimize memory. - Optional Feral GameMode (gamemoderun) and MangoHud overlay toggles.
