June 28, 201313 yr Yeah I somehow lost my way and can't get html5 beta to load and its getting increasingly frustrating every day I try to log in. I'm running on a windows vista 64x with AMD Radeon HD 5450 and the current driver version is 8.960.11.1000. My processor is an AMD Phenom II x4 945 as well. What the hell is going on? Please help and thank you. Maxed [February 14, 2012] | Completionist [October 25, 2012] | Trimmed Completionist [in Progress]Visit my Blog!
June 28, 201313 yr what browser you use. Webgl is the 3d rendering engine for html5 - though each browser implements it itself and in their own way. Internet explorer simply only implements it in IE 10 + (Windows 7+) so you can't use any 3d game with ie lower than that. First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.

June 28, 201313 yr Not sure what the problem is then: but try different browser & new clients. Do know that webgl is still very experimental for browsers themself too, the first draft was created less than a year ago. So not only rs may crash from one update to another: browsers itself can also change the behaviour a lot.

June 29, 201313 yr Author When I get home in 7 hours I will try that and see what goes on. Maxed [February 14, 2012] | Completionist [October 25, 2012] | Trimmed Completionist [in Progress]Visit my Blog!
June 29, 201313 yr Author Try running ipconfig /flushdns in an elevated command prompt and trying again.tried it and no dice. Still wont load it. Is there a way to tell if my graphics card or driver is blacklisted for webgl? Maxed [February 14, 2012] | Completionist [October 25, 2012] | Trimmed Completionist [in Progress]Visit my Blog!
June 29, 201313 yr Did you finally try different browsers? That ought to be your first try always with these things. First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.
June 29, 201313 yr Author How do i try different browsers? you mean using say, chrome 26? Instead of chrome 27? Maxed [February 14, 2012] | Completionist [October 25, 2012] | Trimmed Completionist [in Progress]Visit my Blog!
June 29, 201313 yr Try firefox, try opera, try chrome 28 beta try 26 etc... First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.
June 29, 201313 yr Author Well I'm not sure how to test webgl other than in html5 loading, but I'll see about getting chrome 28 beta. Maxed [February 14, 2012] | Completionist [October 25, 2012] | Trimmed Completionist [in Progress]Visit my Blog!
June 29, 201313 yr Like I said: other browser vendors implement webgl in their own way. HTML5 is not a special thing: it is just an umbrella term to describe capabilities of browsers (IE 3d rendering, canvas 2d, websounds, web sockets for multiplayer etc). However the exact details of all those things, and hence the exact bugs are always the responsibility of the browser vendor: so a certain program might work with chrome but not with firefox, or something might even exclusive to firefox etc etc. First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.
June 29, 201313 yr Jagex only allows Chrome for the time being because they judge that HTML5 implementation in the other browsers isn't nearly as good.
June 29, 201313 yr That is simply stupid. It is not up to jagex to say HOW the 3d is implemented: if I want a text based presentation of the data RS sends I should be free to load any html5 game in lynx.. Same for other things, mozilla allows for a great developpers console allowing you to see also with inverted z axes or remove skins. First they came to fishingand I didn't speak out because I wasn't fishing Then they came to the yewsand I didn't speak out because I didn't cut yews Then they came for the oresand I didn't speak out because I didn't collect ores Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak out for me.
June 29, 201313 yr Except Firefox has (or had, unsure if that was fixed) a glitch in their implementation of HTML5 that prevented RS from working properly...
June 29, 201313 yr Except Firefox has (or had, unsure if that was fixed) a glitch in their implementation of HTML5 that prevented RS from working properly...What glitch? I'm quite active in the mozilla html5 development, and would love to see this. So far main reason people say something glitches is because they themself do not follow the standard and rely on shortcuts instead of proper. Firefox has been historically the most standard confirmant browser (just like how chrome has always been the fastest)- so firefox+firebug I would personally advice for anyone who does debugging work of HTML5 application. (Any beta players thus). Especially since the authors of the original webgl specification is the mozilla foundation - the same people who create firefox.

June 30, 201313 yr Author Ok so chrome 28 didn't work and i checked the kronos wikia to see if my system was blacklisted, but wasn't. Is there a way to work with my graphics card or drivers to see if something there is messing it up?

June 30, 201313 yr Author Apparently html5 beta will load in software mode. I just remembered to hold down S when it was loading and it went through. But now I'm sitting at a 1-4 fps which is crap compared to getting 25-30 before things went awry.
