What is open source?

OpenOSRS being open source means that the code can be inspected by anybody. Changes to our software, that anyone can submit, are passed through an audit and acceptance process, where we make sure that the changes don't contain any malicious or rule-breaking code. This makes sure that you won't be running such code.

Will using OpenOSRS get me banned?

How often is OpenOSRS updated?

If you're using the launcher, count on seeing updates every week on Thursday. These Thursday releases are done after the game has updated, and can take a few hours if there has been an engine change in the game.

Where can I find the logs, screenshots, or configurations?

To find logs, either open screenshot directory (by right-clicking "Camera" button) and navigate 1 directory up and then open logs folder, or navigate to %userprofile%\.runelite\logs on Windows or $HOME/.runelite/logs on Linux and macOS.

How do I build OpenOSRS?

See Building with IntelliJ IDEA.

Will there be a OpenOSRS mobile client?

Who knows.
