Is there a maintained open source server counterpart?
It’s really great to see games that would otherwise die live on through a community. Ultima online is a great example with the likes of ClassicUO (amazing client) and ModernUO (an active attempt at a modernised server)
- arianvanp 2y agoYes there were many. This is how I got into programming in 2006. The fact that OSRS even happened is because Jagex was losing a lot of people to private servers. I've been out of the community for 1.5 decades now but there (used to) be a thriving private server community at https://rune-server.org/index.php https://rune-server.org/index.php which shaped my entire programming career Whether there are still actively maintained ones I'm not sure though.
- pasmat 2y agoThis is for 2004 version of the game, but probably the most active open source project https://github.com/2004scape https://github.com/2004scape Also Runelite isn’t open source client per se, its just open source client wrapper that makes many functions available through stable API and adds plugins.
