Beloved Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 This was the first i discovered a few weeks ago while on a farm run: (Location: Troll Stronghold) Back then it had a distinct purple colour, instead of the faint green colour now, I didn't think much of it and put it down as a graphical bug but then someone posted on the Post your pictures thread this: (URL) Which got me thinking again, but it wasn't until i went to train smithing two days ago that it made me think it was maybe something more than just a bug: (Location: Varrock west bank) The colour from that one has changed as well, it used to be more distinct but i didn't take a picture of it until today. My question is: Has anyone seen more of these on different locations and what could they be besides just bugs? I don't expect them to be meaningful tbh, I just like to know if there are more of them.

Musky44 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I've personally never seen these odd colours, but it seems more like a graphical error on either Jagex's behalf, of yours. Maybe the developers messed up something with the latest update, or your graphic card is a little outdated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe look at the same spot in standard detail, see if it changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jonni Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Yeah i think it's just graphical errors, maybe specific to certain hardware. I've been seeing it at barrows for months now dedicate your idle computer power to a scientific project. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlzPuddngPlz Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 It's back again, it's now black:It looks a lot darker in game though Could you circle/ highlight the strange part? I can't tell any difference from what it normally looks like. Also, the OP's pics won't load for me. It's probably a bug or something, I can't imagine a news post saying something to the tune of "Strange colours have been appearing in RuneScape recently for those with HD settings, what could be causing this? Wait no more because after doing ____ quest, the secret of the strange colours is revealed!" It's probably a bug :smile: Sig by me, in MS paint, but I'm still working on it.

Albel Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I noticed it at barrows the other day. Just though it was part of it but I guess it is at a lot of places. I'm just guessing its a small graphics error on there part.

Danqazmlp Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 If it was just one spot i would say its an insignificant glitch. However, because there are various ones around Rs, and probably many unseen ones, it makes me think it may b a small glitch by something implemented in the background to help an upcoming graphical update.

D. V. Devnull Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I'll keep my eyes open for this...

dirk4slayer Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 The barrows picture is mine, that colour has been in that exact spot for the ~4 days I've been barrowing now. Sometimes it disappears, sometimes it changes colours, but usually it has a red/purple/blue shade and it's always in the same spot. There's also two of these spots in Torag's tomb, with a slightly more blue/purple shade. I don't know what to think of it :ohnoes: Chuck Norris doesn't ever need a compass; he randomly points somewhere and north goes there in order not to anger him.
