Essential improvements

RuneLite Client

A third-party client approved by Jagex.
Can be launched as an alternative client to the OSRS Client on Steam or the Jagex Launcher.
Offers several features over official clients, such as Discord Integration, Loot Tracker, Status widgets, and other third party plugins. Supports GPU Rendering, allowing for increased draw distance and anti-aliasing compared to the old official Java client.
Steam Achievements do not appear to work through RuneLite.
Might not perform as well as the official native client, but supports more options for e.g. better interface scaling.
Installation:
  1. Copy the file path to RuneLite's .exe
 Default location: "C:\Users\user's name\AppData\Local\RuneLite\RuneLite.exe"
  1. In your Steam library. Right click Old School Runescape, go to Properties
  2. Under LAUNCH OPTIONS, paste the entire url to the Runelite.exe file with quoatation marks followed by %command%
