Get ready for the next chapter in the Return to the Desert trilogy with Pharaoh’s Folly, launching on Monday April 7th!

FYI, some items that were used as equip models during certain animations also got mistakenly deleted with this update (I guess they had login checks mistakenly given to them, despite never being actually obtainable). As a result, those animations no longer play correctly.
At a quick glance (in no way meant to be comprehensive), this includes the Christmas 2005 Marionette handles, and the honey you feed to Baby Sarah during the Meeting History quest.
Should uh, probably double check that any of the other deleted items weren't used by anything. Since I doubt these (plus the dinosaurs) were the only ones mistakenly affected.
Since they got totally deleted yesterday, I am also once again requesting that the basket of eggs (with associated human_skipping_ready and human_skipping_walk animations) and ghost buster 500 be reintroduced as cosmetics at some point.
I would imagine there is a few oddities in the list like the baby dinos that had login checks associated that we are gonna be chasing up as they arise, if you have a list of things you noticed aren't working as expected do feel free to send them over to me to pass along.
Will this fix the yak issue aswell ? Now when you have a yak as fam you crash all the time.
If that issue arrived since this week update potentially but if that had been around prior it would likely require some further investigation.
This is understandable, even if I dislike losing some of my items. But changes like these should be announced before it goes live so players can prepare, maybe take screenshots of their collections. Very sad.
This has been a takeaway action point from this situation for us in the CM team, originally the team who were working on the login flow stuff had been showcasing it on a technical level and we in the CM team missed the minute to minute impact of these changes as we should have realized what this would have meant to players and given a heads up on what was going to happen.
We plan on syncing with teams more directly on things like this that may have unexpected side effects.
Howdy Scapers,
With a few changes - both intended and unintended - popping up in Monday's release, we wanted to check in and provide more information on what's going on.
Tomorrow morning at 08:45 UTC there will be a short server reset to resolve both the Wandering NPC issue and the Green Skirt Item issue. Check it out here - https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/post-update-check-in-wandering-npcs-green-skirts--item-removals
The NPCs spawning in weird places is unfortunately not an Aprils fools joke (it would have been great if it was planned) , team is investigating how best to resolve it and for the time being we have left the warning up on the launcher.
Will this game feature ongoing content updates like a live service game, or will there be a definitive endpoint where development ceases in order to work on a standalone sequel?
We've got a plan to keep expanding and developing the game to deepen the experience for players, but we also know that it's a stand-alone game and we want to deliver a cohesive experience. It'll eventually reach a point where it's "complete" but that's a loooooong way out. We've got a lot of content to get into this game before then, and a lot of that is subject to player feedback!
Week 6 of asking for the Orthen Furnace Core, Artificers Measure, Dark Onyx Core and Enchanted Notepaper to be GIM bankable please?
This list has been passed along to the team but no ETA on if or when this may be applied.
Evening Scapers,
Our technical team continues to investigate the ongoing issues causing some NPCs to appear in unintended spaces (We swear its not a weirdly well timed April fools thing) that may cause a crash to desktop.
There will not be a solution to this applied this evening as current resolutions are likely to require a coldfix and restart of the servers.
We would ask players to continue taking precaution around dangerous situations and avoiding them where possible. We will continue keep you posted if any changes arise. Apologies for any inconvenience caused.

It's true, it's so true.
I've tried changing genders, skin colour, hairstyles,hair colour, unequipping all other overrides etc. Nothing has worked to revert whatever is causing this, that's why I've been posting about this for 4 months now.
Also thank you for replying.
No problem, could you DM me over your IGN, and i'll check why the workaround isn't working for you specifically
We're delighted to announce an all-new open world survival adventure game set in the RuneScape universe - RuneScape: Dragonwilds!
Dive in here to find out more - https://secure.runescape.com/m=news/announcing-runescape-dragonwilds
And wishlist it on Steam here - https://store.steampowered.com/app/1374490/RuneScape_Dragonwilds/
I’m a big fan of survival games. Hopefully there’s single player because I agree the griefing in multiplayer is annoying.
Can confirm, you can play it on your lonesome. Am currently playing through a test build myself and managing quite comfortably, even with my chaotic style. ;)
It is great fun with friends though. Rather than building a house, you can build a little village. Which is tremendously fun imo.
1. Describe the bug you are experiencing.
Keepsaked santa outfit top and legs are unequipable.
2. List the steps to reproduce the bug.
Attempt to equip keepsaked santa outfit top and legs.
3. Do you have any additional information that would be useful?
I've chased this, (but it's currently lower priority than the NPC strangeness that's happening.)
Of note there's probably a work around (this only seems to happen if your account is in an odd state) - if you change male->female at the makeover mage (or in wardrobe) then back you should be able to activate the override.
As others have pointed out this is older art that was repurposed for the time being while the quests key art was being worked on, should get a look at the new keyart later this week
Azanna, I am begging you to get back to us about how this happened - I am super curious how spaghettied this must've been, for nothing to touch them directly, but this suddenly happening.
Ngl I imagine its something very mundane like a number got changed so instead of looking for "fed dino ID 1234" its looking at "green skirt ID 1235"
Send them home before Hans starts getting dangerous, no but seriously, we have flagged this up and the team is looking into it.
There is a joke in here about turning dinosaurs into materials to make plastic but for now I am just gonna report the bug.
- 13:21 PSA - We're aware of a couple of issues around graphical glitches surrounding NPC's, them appearing in different areas and crashes. Please try avoid teleporting too much right now and avoid any dangerous areas for the time being. We're looking into this now and will keep you all updated!
- We are aware of an issue with feeding the Dinosaurs for propellant, while this is being reviewed please refrain from crafting the propellant as it will not be created correctly.
