Hello everyone,
I have some bittersweet news to share with you all today. As of a few weeks ago, @
On the other side of the coin, we're glad to be able to announce that a very well-seasoned staff member, one that you've all come to know and love, will be stepping in to fill Jay's shoes. They're big shoes to fill, and although we can never truly replace him, we are confident that @Moe will do a great job of managing the community and the staff team, as he has already proven himself as Event manager and is another huge part of Alora's success.
Best Regards,
Omicron & The Alora Staff Team

#428107 Community Manager Changes
Posted by Omicron on 08 April 2022 - 03:10 PM
Lowkey has no longer been the community manager of Alora. I regret to inform everyone that he will no longer be managing the community due to a lack of time IRL, and we fully support him in his effort to prioritize his family time and professional career. This will undoubtedly be a big loss for Alora, as Jay has been a part of this thing from the very first day (even before we opened our doors) and is a big part of why Alora is where it is today, and we still have plenty of love and respect for him for the time he has spent with us. Needless to say, we'll always have a spot for him on the team should he ever want to return. With that being said, we wish him all the best on his future endeavours, and hope to still see him around every now and then.

#425240 Client Issues Troubleshooting(Windows, Mac, Linux)
Posted by Omicron on 24 February 2022 - 04:01 PM
Trouble With Graphical Artifacts on the Runelite sidebar?
SpoilerHere is a picture of what it might look like if you are facing this issue:
This happens due to a RuneLite feature called Hardware acceleration which attempts to utilize your graphics card for certain processes rather than relying on the CPU.
The currently recommended solution for this is to run Alora using a special launcher that disables Hardware acceleration. You can simply delete the old Alora launcher, and start using this one instead:
Click here to download the launcher with no hardware acceleration
For those of you who don't have any graphical issues with the sidebar, it is recommended that you keep using the launcher found on the download page, as Hardware acceleration is useful when it works as intended.
Trouble Opening the Launcher/the Jar File Won't Run?
SpoilerIf your client launcher doesn't show anything at all when you run it, it could very well be that your computer isn't associating .jar files with Java. This tool quickly fixes it for you:
http://johann.loeffl...oads/jarfix.exe
The canvas of Alora HD won't fill my screen:
SpoilerTo fix this issue, simply go to your display settings on for your windows device, and turn off Display scaling, as this down-scales the HD canvas.
My Client is Constantly Stuttering No Matter What I Do:
SpoilerThis generally means that the version used to run the client is not java 11, so the appropriate steps to fix the issue would be to first download and install java 11, and then uninstall the earlier non-java 11 version.
Java 11 can be downloaded through the link below:
https://www.oracle.c...-downloads.html
The 117 HD/GPU Plugins Crash in Certain Areas:
SpoilerThis is usually caused by an out-of-memory error due to the client running on a 32-bit version of Java. To fix the issue, you will need to download and install the 64-bit version of Java, which should also improve FPS in many cases. To do so, follow the link below, and download the version of java for your operating system with "(64-bit)" in the name:
https://www.oracle.c...-downloads.html
The 117 HD/GPU Plugin Fill The Entire Screen With One Color:
Tile Marker Plugin Won't Properly Mark Tiles:
Inventory Setups Won't Save:
SpoilerThese issues are potentially caused by using a 64-bit Java version. While the 64-bit Java version (on a 64-bit operating system) can provide large performance gains, it has also been known to cause some issues in some cases. The issues listed above are some examples; if you're experiencing any of these issues, try to download and install the 32-bit version of Java instead, which can be found here:
https://www.java.com...load/manual.jsp
Download the version corresponding to your operating system that does not have "(64-bit)" listed in the name.
The 117 HD/GPU Plugins Won't Start:
Spoiler1. The most common issue is that your hardware is old/doesn't support the version of openGL used by the plugins. Anything older than 2013 is unlikely to work.
2. Some players may have issues starting the 117 HD and GPU plugins. While these plugins are not guaranteed to work for everyone, there are a few known fixes. If you are experiencing an issue with the 117 HD/GPU plugin, please see the trouble shooting guide below, made by @Spudmo:
https://www.alora.io/forums/topic/75796-alora-client-troubleshooting-guide/
3. For laptops with dual GPUs, if your laptop is a gaming laptop, there's a good chance that Runelite is trying to use the Integrated GPU rather than the high performance dedicated GPU. To fix this issue, follow these instructions:
4. It is also possible that you may not have a supported GPU. You can find a nearly complete list of supported GPU's here:
https://docs.google....7GCg/edit#gid=0
My Client Used To Work Fine But Now It Crashes:
SpoilerThere are a few reasons this could happen. The first thing we recommend is to delete your Cache and Client and to re-download the client. Check out the Deleting Your Cache section near the bottom of this thread if you don't know how to do this.
If the issue still persists on Runelite, we recommend players uninstall all of the plugin-hub plugins, as they may have been updated to a version which now causes the client to crash. This can be done by clicking the Plugin Configurations tab on the Runelite sidebar, and scrolling to the very bottom, then clicking the "Plugin Hub" button. Once you've clicked on this option, go through all of the plugins and uninstall them.
My Screen Turns White After Minimizing Another Game:
SpoilerIn rare instances, players may experience an issue where their canvas will turn completely white until they resize their client or move it to another display. We're still investigating the cause of this issue for now, but if this is happening to you, the issue is should only be present on the Runelite standard definition version of the game, so if you're experiencing it, you can either turn on the GPU or 117 HD plugin, toggle Alora's native HD, or use the vanilla client to fix the issue.
My Client won't launch properly, and I'm getting the "error java.lang.exceptioninitializererror":
SpoilerThis likely means you're not running the client using Java 8, but rather a newer version, such as Java 17. To check your Java version, you can open the terminal/command prompt and type "java -version", then press enter. The solution would be to simply uninstall the current version of java and install java 8, or set the default version to Java 1.8.
Java 1.8 can be downloaded through the link below:
https://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp
Runelite won't launch properly on Linux:
SpoilerThis looks like bug with JDK 10+. The solution is either to downgrade to JDK 8 (or 9) or to delete /usr/lib/jvm/java-11-openjdk-amd64/conf/accessibility.properties (for JDK 11 on Ubuntu, for 10 the path should be similar).
How to get HD (OpenGL) working on Mac OSX High Sierra / Mojave
SpoilerPlease note this guide is quite old(2018) so it most likely won't work on newer Mac's(2020+).
How to get HD working on Mac OSX
SpoilerPlease note this guide is quite old(2017) so it most likely won't work on newer Mac's(2020+).
Fixing Client Issues on Mac OSX.
My client disconnects me every few minutes:
SpoilerThis issue may have many causes, however the main causes are generally ISP or host issues. If it's a host issue, then it the issue will generally resolve itself within 24 hours without you needing to take any action. If not, then it's potentially an ISP/hardware issue, in which case you should call your ISP and tell them about the issue, so they can see if there's any packet-loss or intermittent connection interruptions.
A possible cause of recurring disconnections would be frequency interference from networks that split into a 2.4 GHz and a 5GHz frequency, so disabling the 2.4 GHz frequency may fix the disconnection issue; this may even be an issue if the device experiencing the issues is using a wired connection.
This guide may help you resolve this issue:
https://www.alora.io...ction-lost-fix/
Deleting your Cache:
SpoilerMajority of the time simply deleting your cache can solve your issue. This can be done two ways:
If you have the Runelite client open, click the information tab located on the right side of your client. You will see a Clear Alora Cache button. Click it which will force close your client and delete the cache automatically.
The second method is to go to your C: Drive and delete it manually.
Go to your PC, and open your C: Drive.
You should see aloracache folder. Delete it.
You will then open the Users folder, click your name and find a folder named alora. Delete it.
Once that is done, head back to https://www.alora.io/play/ and download the client that matches your system.
Verifying Proper Java Installation:
SpoilerJava is the platform that Alora runs on. To be sure that we are not simply running into an error because of the wrong Java version we will verify that we have the proper Java installed on our computer.
Click the link below to be taken to the Java website. This webpage will run an application that checks your Java version and will tell you if you need to download an updated Java or not.
For Other Issues:
SpoilerIf you haven't found what you're looking for, check out this guide that talks about other common issues that occur.

If you're still struggling with issues, make a thread in the Technical Support section and we will get your issue resolved.

#419532 Alora Leagues 2.0 (Launching December 27th) - IRL & In-game Prizes!
Posted by Omicron on 19 December 2021 - 03:35 PM
Alora League 2.0 Information
Hello everyone,
It's that time of the year again, and we're excited to announce that we're hosting our 2nd Alora League in just a few days! This League will be very similar to the first one, although the in-game rewards will be entirely different. If you did not participate in the previous League, here's the rundown:
On December 27th at 7pm Eastern Time, starting on fresh accounts that are locked to Zeah, you'll be able to complete tasks and collect points. The players who have accumulated the most points by the end of the tournament will be awarded with some juicy prizes, including a PlayStation 5 for the top prize! There are also many other token prizes that can be won for the first players to accomplish certain tasks, such as obtaining Ranger boots. At the end of the tournament, players can spend their points on new, unique items from the Leagues reward shop.
Start date: December 27th, 7pm EST (Midnight server time)
End date: January 19th, 7pm EST (Midnight server time)
How does it work?
On December 27th, you'll be able to create a fresh account to participate in Leagues. This account will be wiped on January 19th and no items can be transferred off of it to a normal account, due to the increased drop rates on this game mode. Certain areas will be instanced, such as the Kourend Catacombs, to allow players to have a bit more space to train and compete. We are also instancing bosses such as Sarachnis to prevent overcrowding. While donator ranks do apply on these accounts, due to the account being locked at the end of the tournament, you will need to put in a request to transfer the total spent to one of your main Alora accounts.
Top Alora cash prizes:- PlayStation 5
- Airpods Pro
- Logitech G935 Gaming Headset
- Logitech G502 Gaming Mouse
Top Alora Token prizes:
- First Twisted bow: 1,000 tokens
- First to 200m exp in any skill: 1,000 tokens
- First to obtain a phoenix pet from Wintertodt: 750 tokens
- First to obtain a boss pet: 750 tokens
- First to obtain a 3rd age piece: 750 tokens
- First to complete a Master difficulty task: 500 tokens
- First to obtain Ranger boots: 250 tokens
- First to complete a collection log entry: 250 tokens
Even if you don't receive one of the big cash prizes, there are plenty of reasons to play leagues! If you're feeling lucky, try your hand at a specific token prize, such as obtaining a Phoenix pet. You'll also have the ability to spend your points on many different in-game prizes at the end of the tournament, such as:
- Leagues Trophies
- Shattered Relic Hunter Outfit
- Shattered Relics Home Teleport Animation
- Shattered Relic Weapon Variety Pack
- These weapon kits can be applied to Abyssal whip, Tentacle whip, Rune crossbow, God books, and Mystic robes.
- Dwarven Multicannon Ornament Kit
- Void & Elite Void Ornament Kit
Notes:- The rules and prizes are subject to change based on availability.
- If a cash prize is unavailable in your country, an equivalent prize or amount via PayPal may be substituted.
- Winners of cash prizes can choose to receive Alora tokens and can receive 50% more by doing so.
We'll have more information on the nitty gritty of this tournament on release day, but this thread should give you a basic outline of what's to come. We hope you guys are just as excited for the start of our second Alora League!

#415579 [7/11/21] Alora 5th Year Anniversary Update
Posted by Omicron on 07 November 2021 - 03:14 AM
Happy Five Year Anniversary!
When we first embarked on this journey 5 years ago, we had no idea of the bonds we’d form, the moments we’d share and the lifelong friends that would come from it. Alora started off as an idea, as a game for people to enjoy, but it has become so much more than that. For many of us, it’s become a place where we’ve formed countless memories, and a community that we’ve become a part of, and that has become part of our identities. Whether you’ve just recently joined, or if you’ve been here since 2016, one thing remains true: Alora is a place you can call home, and a place you can come back to no matter what is going on in your life.
I'm extremely proud of our community, and I adamantly believe that there has never been a better community in the RSPS scene. I'd like to thank everyone for being here with us for these past five years, your support keeps us going. Today is a day of celebration, so we hope you enjoy the events that our lovely staff team has lined up for you!
We've also applied some miscellaneous bug fixes, QoL, and content additions today:- Party Pete:
- Party Pete has been added at home to hand out Birthday balloons for this year's anniversary.
- Vote Book Bonus Expansion:
- Players now have the option to select 2 new bonuses from opening vote books.
- Bonus Mahogany Homes Points:
- Players can select this option to increase their Mahogany Homes points by 15% for 45 minutes.
- The way this works is that it will provide players a 15% chance to get an extra point for every point they get from completing a contract.
- For example, on an easy contract, players get 3 points by default, so they’d have a 45% chance to get 1 extra point, while on an elite contract, they get 6 points, so they’d have a 90% chance to get 1 extra point.
- Bonus points from being a donator doing influence the chance to get an extra point.
- For example, on an easy contract, players get 3 points by default, so they’d have a 45% chance to get 1 extra point, while on an elite contract, they get 6 points, so they’d have a 90% chance to get 1 extra point.
- The way this works is that it will provide players a 15% chance to get an extra point for every point they get from completing a contract.
- Players can select this option to increase their Mahogany Homes points by 15% for 45 minutes.
- Bonus Molch Pearls:
- Players can select this option to increase their likelihood of getting a Molch pearl after each catch by 15% for 45 minutes.
- These new bonuses will also be visible in the bonuses interface, which can be accessed through the server statistics tab in the quest tab.
- Bracelet of Clay:
- Players can now enchant Sapphire Bracelets into a Bracelet of clay.

- Players can now cut Sulliusceps on Fossil island.
- These Fungi require a Woodcutting level of at least 65 to chop down, and prove 127 base Woodcutting experience for each yield.
- These are different from standard woodcutting trees, since most of the time, players will receive an “empty yield”, meaning they won’t get a log/item.

- Players can now inspect the Dragonfire shield/Dragonfire ward/Ancient wyvern shields to see how many charges they have.
- Players can now deposit up to 55 ores in the blast furnace.
- Similar to in OSRS, this must be done by first depositing 27 ores, then another 28 in the next inventory.
- Fixed a bug where the curved bone trade-in dialogue would sometimes show the wrong amount of experience that will be awarded to the player.
- Expanded the item identification plugin to identify all different types of seeds/items.
- Players can select the types of seeds/items they want to identify in the configuration settings.
- Adjusted the boosts display interface to show the proper experience rate boosts for the Well of Goodwill, server bonus xp, vote bonus xp, and god blessing bonus xp.
- These rates vary depending on the game mode (Classic/Realism/League/EIM/GIM players may have adjusted rates), so the exact boost will now be shown based on your game mode.
- Added the Weiss Herb Patch as a Farmer's blessing exclusive herb patch.
- Lizardman shaman no longer deal any melee/range damage when using their basic melee/range attack if the player is praying correctly.
- Players will now see up to 9 available food options to cook when they click on a range/oven, rather than just 1 (generally the first raw food item at the top of their inventory).

- The Celestial ring will now give dark essence blocks to eternal donators rather than Dense essence blocks.
- Added a warning on startup for players who launch the client using a 32-bit java version on a 64-bit operating system.
- Doing this will likely result in client crashes, so players will be warned each time they load the client.
- Players now have a chance to obtain teak/redwood/mahogany/dragonfruit tree seeds from bird nests.
- The fossil island bank chest will now appear built/usable.
- Bug Fixes:
- Fixed a bug that was causing clients to crash when using the Mahogany Homes plugin.
- Fixed a bug where there was an extra empty build option on the Mahogany homes build interface.
- Shifted the Runelite overlay bottom left/bottom middle snap corners up a bit so that they were not under the chatbox when the gpu/117 HD plugins were enabled.
- Fixed a bug where clicking "Nevermind." when selecting a prayer to unlock would consume the prayer scroll.
- Adjusted the public chat Censor to avoid censoring the words "can I get" and other similar combinations that were being censored.
- If you find any other word patterns that are being picked up the censor when they shouldn’t be, let us know, and we’ll adjust it.
- Fixed a bug where clicking on the frog prince outfit in the Fancy Dress Box would open the GIM bank (if the player was a GIM).
- Fixed a bug where players could not go back down the stairs in the Cooking guild.
- Fixed a typo with the harmony island allotment patch.
- Rounded the xp rate in the quest tab to 1 decimal place.
- Increased the interface refresh rate so that players who are getting 200+ FPS uncapped will no longer see flickering.
- Fixed a bug where trying to use the alchemy or superheat spells would open the music tab.
- Fixed a bug where the ladder in the donator zone was a bank booth on 2010 mode.
- Fixed a bug where players could keep autocasting a spell from a different spellbook in certain circumstances.

#414476 New Vote book Boosts
Posted by
J boogs on 26 October 2021 - 09:18 AMWhat is your suggestion?:
I'm suggesting adding 2 new boosts to the vote book boosts category. One being a Lake Molch boost (Molch pearls) and Mahogany homes (Carpenter points).
Both boosts could last 45 minutes as all other boosts do
Lake Molch boost
Provide a 15% boost for receiving a Molch pearl.
Carpenter points boost
Provide a 15% boost when receiving carpenter points after completion of a home.
Is this in OSRS?:
No
Has this suggestion been accepted already?:
Don't think so
How would this benefit Alora?:
Allow players to get more use out of Vote books and use them doing more activities. (Personally I don't use Bonus Pk points, Raids point boost, and Castle wars boost and would think many others don't as well) This also may give people more incentive to do for say mahogany homes and Aerial fishing because the points for outfits will be slightly faster with the use of the Vote book boosts.
Leave some feedback below on your standpoint on this idea :)
