reaverhd Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hi, Yesterday I have installed chrome and java 1.6 and I am currently playing on it (Old school). The first problem that I have is that Swiftkit seems inactive when I play on runescape (chrome). This is what i mean Picture one : inactive :http://gyazo.com/a61...c56c745ac8d513c When you click file for instance it becomes active again (black letters instead of grey) My second problem is that I have huge screen freezes that are not the Runescape servers. It's just freezing my screen for 15 seconds and then it continues (When the screen is frozen the game just continues because I can hear the sound still going). Is it only me or do other people have the same problems? Any help would be appreciated. ~Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marius Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Hi, The reason SwiftKit appears "inactive" is because you are working inside a chrome window (which is technically another program). The screen freezes might be relating to graphical settings/drivers, have you updated your graphics drivers recently?

reaverhd Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Yes my drivers are up to date, Ive got a GTX 570 on GeForce 314.22 atm which is up to date Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stidor Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Do the screen freezes occur when playing in Chrome itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaverhd Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Without swiftkit open? Just in chrome browser? Testing atm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stidor Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 So did it happen while you were playing in Chrome (not using SwiftKit but using Chrome itself) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaverhd Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 So did it happen while you were playing in Chrome (not using SwiftKit but using Chrome itself) This crash was in swiftkit with chrome. Is it only me with this problem? ~Rico Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaverhd Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 Ive tested chrome (without swiftkit 45mins) no crashes. I will test some more tonight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny966 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 I got the same problem, the inactivity (not really a problem) and the freezes(which are frustrating). The freezes are not happening on chrome chrome, but it does on swiftkit chrome, also got the latest drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stidor Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 How long does it normally take before you get the freeze? Is it Old School or EOC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny966 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 It's different, I would say like an hour or so. It's on Old School, I don't know about EOC. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaverhd Posted April 19, 2013 Author Share Posted April 19, 2013 The freezes are random, Old school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stidor Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Are you sure you tested it enough in Chrome standalone before you could rule out it wasn't happening there as well? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denny966 Posted April 19, 2013 Share Posted April 19, 2013 Played for 2 hours fine w/o freezes Another bug(?) which I encountered is that the chrome swiftkit is always on top, even if the options isn't ticked on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reaverhd Posted April 20, 2013 Author Share Posted April 20, 2013 I will test it today the whole day and tell you the result tonight. ~Rico 2 hours tested no crash (this is on chrome not on swiftkit) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simmo Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 When it freezes dose minimizing the SwiftKit and then bringing it back up do anything? I know that's not a real good solution but it gives us an indication as to where we can look for a cause. I'm trying to determine if redrawing the java applet will fix it.

Stidor Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Ok, I'm still working on getting Java 7 working which will in turn change quite a few things so it will hopefully fix this issue. Keep an eye out or subscribe to the topic and I'll let you know once an update is available on the staff server. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stidor Posted April 21, 2013 Share Posted April 21, 2013 Enable the staff server (Click Options on Launcher then Advanced) The password is: ruckus13 I've made some changes for Java7 to work, so could you tell me if this made any difference?
