Hey everyone,

It has come to my attention that recently there have been some emails and messages going around about an Alora Beta Client that players can test and possibly receive tokens from. This is a phishing scam, and is not affiliated with Alora, so if you see/receive these messages/emails, please disregard them, and report the accounts that are sending them. It would be best to inform other members/friends in-game of this scam, so that they can avoid it if they are not active on the forums. and do not read this thread.

Cheers,

Omicron

How to get HD (OpenGL) working on Mac OSX High Sierra / Mojave
 

Note: This solution still works on OSX Mojave 10.14, tested October 2018.

Hey guys,

So after recently upgrading my Mac from Sierra to High Sierra, I noticed that HD was broken. I tried re-installing Java 1.6 as outlined in my other tutorial, but I had no luck getting HD to work again.

I decided to dig deeper into this to figure out what the problem was, and although there was no easy way to get it working again, I’ve found a solution that some of you may find useful. It comes down to moving a few files into the correct directory (as the location has changed in Mac OSX but we need them in the old location). This will work for High Sierra and presumably any future releases.

NOTE: This is ONLY for users of High Sierra. If you are on Sierra or a previous version of OSX, your HD should work fine without this tutorial!

IMPORTANT: Firstly, make sure that you follow the Java 1.6 tutorial found here:

http://www.alora.io/forums/topic/15711-how-to-get-hd-working-on-mac-osx/

Step 1: Disabling System Integrity Protection (SIP) and allowing hidden files to be seen

Once Java 1.6 is installed, we’re going to have to turn off “System Integrity Protection” (SIP) on our system as we’ll need to have more access to it.

Here’s how you can do this:

Follow these steps to disable SIP:

• Restart your Mac.
• Before OS X starts up, hold down Command(⌘)-R and keep it held down until you see an Apple icon and a progress bar. Release. This boots you into Recovery.
• From the Utilities menu, select Terminal.
• At the prompt type exactly the following and then press Return: csrutil disable
• Terminal should display a message that SIP was disabled.
• We’ll also need to run another command to be able to view hidden files. Enter the following and then press Return: defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES
• From the  menu, select Restart.

At this point, your Mac should be loaded up and your “SIP” disabled, as well as hidden files now being visible. As I mentioned earlier, we need to copy and paste some files from one directory into another.

First, we’ll find the files and copy them…

Step 2: Moving the necessary files to the correct location

• Open up Finder, and on the top bar (very top of the screen) you can click Go -> Go to Folder… (or use the Command(⌘)-Shift-G shortcut) and then type in “/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/1.6.0.jdk/Contents/Libraries“. This will take us to the folder where we need to copy files from.
• Once you are in the Java libraries folder, you’ll see a bunch of files. What you want to do now is copy all of them (Command(⌘)-A and then Command(⌘)-C).
  • Optionally, you can copy and paste these into a folder on your desktop to make sure you don’t need to come back here.
• Now that those files are copied, we’ll need to go to the second location where we want to paste the files. In Finder again, on the top bar (very top of the screen) you can click Go -> Go to Folder… (or use the Command(⌘)-Shift-G shortcut) and then type in “/System/Library/Frameworks/JavaVM.framework/“.
• Once you are in this folder, you’ll need to right-click and select the “New Folder” option. Name this folder “Libraries” (case sensitive!).
• Enter the newly created “Libraries” directory, and then paste your copied files into it (You can use Command(⌘)-V to paste them in).
• Almost done! Alora should now be able to run in HD. Read on for Step 3 to make sure we re-enable your SIP as this is crucial for your Mac’s protection.

Step 3: Re-enabling System Integrity Protection (SIP) and (optionally) re-hiding hidden files

Note: Please do not overlook this step. It is a hassle rebooting again, but you MUST re-enable your System Integrity Protection (SIP). You just need to follow Step 1 with slight changes:

• Restart your Mac.
• Before OS X starts up, hold down Command(⌘)-R and keep it held down until you see an Apple icon and a progress bar. Release. This boots you into Recovery.
• From the Utilities menu, select Terminal.
• At the prompt type exactly the following and then press Return: csrutil enable
• Terminal should display a message that SIP was enabled.
• OPTIONAL: We can also run the other command to hide “hidden” files again. This isn’t necessary, and I personally keep my hidden files all visible, but if you’d like them to be hidden then you can enter the following and then press Return: defaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO
• From the  menu, select Restart.

That’s all! Your computer is secure once again, and you should now be able to run HD on High Sierra!

If anyone finds this too technical for them or they do not want to take any chances, send me a PM and I would be glad to hop on TeamViewer to help you out where I can. Of course, you will need to do Step 1 yourself as it requires rebooting your Mac and I cannot stay on TeamViewer for that portion.

Enjoy  :)

Omicron

I think that having a podium or something outside of the POH Portal showing the open houses would be a really cool idea!

As well as some form of tip jar or a house rating, although this can be manipulated.

Even if there was something showing how much a player spent on the house.

Regardless both are great ideas. Support.

Thanks F 8 great guide for this, iknow many have asked questions about it.

got the golem pet too congrats

Like always, great thread :-)

Classic Mode Poll

Hey guys,

It has become apparent that people, including myself, want a gamemode that closer reflects the true OSRS experience while still being a private server. This will be the game mode that we will aim to cater to people who enjoy a greater grind while still being in the RSPS community. This poll is not about whether or not the mode should be added, but what sort of experience people want out of this mode. This is also for people who are looking for a more challenging economic mode than the regular game.

Currently, for normal (non-ironman) players:

• 330x Combat experience
• 30x Skilling experience
• The ability to benefit from boosts (wilderness boost, vote book boost, well of goodwill boost, etc)

To add some more challenge to the relatively easy experience rates that exist on Alora, we've started brainstorming for a concept to which we would lower experience rates as well as providing other limiting factors to this game mode.

This would create a much higher level of achievement to show off when an player maxes out a stat and progresses through the game.

All poll options explained: 

Question 1: Simply the experience rate players will be playing at. All skills would be hit by this multiplier. Players are longing for a slower level up style instead of going for 200m in stats, this mode is created just for that.

Question 2: If the ability to use bonus experience multipliers should be allowed or not. Currently all game modes gain experience boost from multiple things, seeing people want to grind out levels we would look into removing these boosts to give more enjoyment and a balance to this game mode.

Question 3: The people you are allowed to trade with; if you should only be able to trade with classic mode players only or everyone. This would split the regular players from classic mode players, giving classic mode players a safe economy to interact with without being effected from the main game mode.

Question 4: Gold coin nerf; the rate at which gold is given to classic mode players. How gold is generated. Currently gold is generated at a rapid pace, this would lower the gold generation essentially scaling down the prices for items, creating a difference in the market and preventing massive gold generation from things such as thieving. 

Question 5: Shops; the shops currently provide a wide range of everything - classic mode shops would restrict this so it would become a more player driven economy and what not. Stuff such as herblore supplies, food and potions would be removed allowing a more economic focus to be put and giving skillers a new goal. Allowing them to find a new way to make money.

Question 6: Donation perks restricted; no access to donor zone and other benefits - please list which ones you would like to see if you selected partial; we will then see which ones we decide to keep. 

Question 7: The store options that you would be presented with if you were to donate under those accounts. 

Vote and comment below to let us know how you want to see in Classic Mode!
