tru_vampire0 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 i've been hearing alot that the maximum amount for an item whether it be gp or runes or arrows or whatever is 2.4bill (2400m). is this true? if so, anyone have any screenshots?

celebelian Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 i believe that is true, I don't have a screenie though sorry. I think the cap has something to do with the way the banks are coded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAHK Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 Nobody could take a screenshot of that because once you hit the cap all of your items/gp go negative aka disappear. Who wants to see 2bil+ go bye-bye?

Search for r2 pleasant petition. who really needs anything over 1bil? i mean blue party hat is like 250+mil now i think. i dont really think any1 is gonna have a problem with the cap space There are already players that have a bank worth well over 2bil. While most players will never have a problem with this a select few have to deal nearly exclusively in items for big trades now. Blues are nearing 500mil btw.

Zaaps1 Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 lol i though that when you go over 1 bil you need a whole new bank/inventory slot for all your extra money. lol I guess i was wrong...or was I?

No I was probley wrong I think thats close to it, I think that once you go more than 2.4bil the item has to be stacked in a different slot. but that was the old cap, I heard jagex updated it so it could hold like 1.6 trillion.

Junkieman Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 7FFF FFFF in hex translates to 2,147,483,647 in decimal. I can't help but think it's related, but how, I can't tell you. (it's equal to 111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 1111 in binary too, which I think means it's a 31bit long string) Add 1 to it and that turns to 8000 0000 in hex and 2,147,483,648 in decimal and 1000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 0000 bin.

BartBuytaert Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 There IS a cap, because Java can't handle really high numbers (its near 2,100M). If u add more money to it, it won't be added so it would dissapear. Example: I have 2,1B in my bank and i just got 10K from a quest, i add it to my money amount and what happends? NOTHING, it won't be added but it will be lost, only the 10k tough. :boohoo: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NOTHING, it won't be added but it will be lost, only the 10k tough. :boohoo: That is not how it works. It all goes away once you hit the cap, read this: http://forum.tip.it/viewtopic.php?t=416820 The easiest thing that jagex could do is create another currency, such as silver pieces, or I dunno, dragon coins? :lol:. Basicly said, 1 dragon coin could be equal to say... 1 million. They would be stackable and act just like coins. This way, you could effectivly hold 2100M of coins worth 1 million each, thus having the problem solved. This is what they did on lineage II private server's I played on. Because in the full game getting 2.1billion was very hard (and, heres the bad part. In lineage II it doesn't just "not let you get anything" or delete the money you had before, but it infact if you go over 2.1billion turn your money into a negative, making you lose it all.) they made it so you had "gold coins" worth like 50 mil each or so. I'm afraid that Lineage II and Runescape 2 share that massive flaw. I have been informed that GP also becomes negative after 2100M, which is just insane if you ask me. Sure, right now there might only be a very small amount of players that will have a problem with the cap, but the situation will only worsen over time. In a year from now when Phat Sets cost around the same as the cap (2100M), this could lead to massive problems.
