(2021) Mod West Posted This A While Ago. Any news on if it's going to be polled? It just looks so much better than the RuneLite Loot Beams

Funnily enough I had made them in the league dev stream which would’ve meant the RuneLite guys could’ve plugged them in tomorrow… if the date wasn’t changed… I could maybe find a way to put them into a different dev stream so they can get used a bit sooner.

I wish it was something we could add ourselves but while the art is done the scripting to make them work like RuneLites is unlikely to be priority any time soon :/

The RL loot beams are disgusting tbh, looks like a 3rd grader drew them.

They’re just recoloured existing assets which were used to portray light peaking through a hole in the roof of a cave. When an asset is forced to do something is wasn’t designed for it generally ends up looking a little cheap.

so, the whole of rooftop agility

Exactly :D in the teams defence though, they had no artists at the time.

I’m confused? How would the runelite devs have been able to plug your loot beams in? And how does leagues delay affect it?

I made the beams initially for them to be used in leagues. That feature never ended up making it in, however the assets persist within that branch of the game. Once that branch was merged with the main branch and pushed live, the assets would then be accessible by RL in the same way the access the assets they use currently.

The leagues delay effects it because that’s where the files are currently stored. If I moved them to another branch that goes out sooner, then RL could then use the files once that got pushed live. If you’ve never seen the back-end of a live game then I imagine that could be confusing to wrap your head around.

If you can get the assets added to the live game we'd love to use them
