Fire Cape Glitch? o.O

Featured Replies

While walking to the fally herb patch to get my snapdragons my fire cape just started bugging out. Anyone else notice this problem? Everyone I asked said it looked normal.

the picture doesnt feel right for some reason, are you playing on low detail? That might explain it?

Did you restart RS and looked again?

 

I logged and took it off a few times, but no, I didn't close the client and open a new one.

Yes, I am playing on low detail, but that wouldn't make a difference. So far there are two explainations:

 

 

 

1. It's a real glitch

 

2. I'm going crazy

 

 

 

I'd go with #2 :P

Well #2 is rather obvious to everybody :P so I am leaning towards glitch/bug. I will check when I get on since that is a rather nifty glitch to occur TEMPORARILY. Imagine having to drop it and earn another just to get the flames back. Almost worth it, lol.

I guess the lava stop flowing and hardened into rock :D

I moved on...

Gotta say to the guy who mentioned low detail, tht wouldn't be it in low detail the cape has a none moving lava pattern

 

 

 

in high detail it moves

 

 

 

neither would propduce a black cape naturally

 

 

 

 

 

I would say a bug, since no-one else saw it quite possibly a bug within ur saved rs game files (not as in ur account as in wat the game downloads to run)

Check the batteries. Mine's working just fine.

Tell Jad that you need a replacement because your product is defective

Looks cooler (no pun intended) black IMO ;)

 

 

 

I'd go with AllBogs... the batteries are probably dead.

When i first logged in after the system update mine was black for 5 mins or so.. i think you were lagging

Proud fire cape owner!

How many RS players does it take to change a lightbulb?

5,000. 1 to change the lightbulb, and 4,999 to complain about how it was better before.

What the game does (I think) Is when an image of an item is required it downloads it off the server and stores it into your computer. What happened is for some reason or another it decided that it needed a different skin for your fire cape, so it goes to try and download something that's not there, and it turns out black.

 

 

 

Clearing your Cache or temp files should fix it. So should closing down the client or restarting your computer.

 

 

 

This also explains why people say that rare drops take longer to spawn, it's because the game has to go get the picture of it.

Yeh, alot of my friends have had that, i also get a glitch in deul arena, i cant see the rules

Hitting it up Since 03

Oooh that's what that is, I was ranging Black Demons for Slayer and I saw a level 120+ there with an all black cape. It looked really funny and I had never seen anything like that, but now I know it was a Fire Cape.. Funny glitch though.

99 Slayer since August 2007.

if it just shows up to you that way, its on your side and its not server side.

Its just simple lag I'm sure, log out and back in and it should be fine then.
