I played runescape from 2004 to early 2012. I also played Warcraft 3. I spent probably thousands of hours developing a runescape scenario inside warcraft 3. I had hard coded almost two dozen skills. Modeled and animated hundreds of mobs, equipment and magic spells. I created the entirety of the F2p map with the addition of canafis, ardougne, camelot and catherby. I had close to 30 quests. A tutorial island, NPC players, and four bosses. And not a week before releasing an alpha version to the warcraft 3 website, my house caught fire when my neighbor decided to deep fry some chicken or some shit out in his backyard, tipped the thing over and set half my house and his house on fire. Luckily I was in school when it happened, but I lost everything in my bedroom. My poor little emachines was a pile of melted plastic and burned metal. I gave up that day and ended up forgetting about warcraft 3 and continued playing runescape until early 2012 when I quit and went to college. But seeing this video randomly pop up on my feed gave me a hit of nostalgia.
You played during the best time bro, you should look up OSRS And come back and see all the new content they've added, they realized they fucked up with EOC in 2012 and OSRS is a hit!
if its any consolation, i've spent a very long time making an incredibly refined WC3 map. people played it, had some fun, but there is no legal path to monetization on there. Made a few bucks at most. The earlier you got out, the better tbh. I'm burned pretty bad from game dev after this experience.
Read your comment and felt for you brother. I was really happy to read what you've done but then tragedy hit. I'm glad youre okay though. Also, Ive been playing since 06 and for years I've gone back and OSRS. At first it's the Nostalgia, then you keep playing and realize that OSRS is fun and chill asf to play. Oldschool Runescape is better than ever my friend. There's still good endgame content coming out that I havent even touched and more is coming out. It's the only game I'm really playin rn with what time I have. I'm playin on my iron with friends and its addicting.
It crazy how far Player Devs have come when its comes to exceptional Pservers like Ascension, TurtleWow, and now WofRS. They have yet to fail to amaze me with how innovative and unique their game builds have proven to be and how much it speaks to their skills, these types are the ones who should be behind what is modern wow retail and classic. Their not afraid to take chances and do everything in the their power to produce results. They are definitely at the level of even the most popular Indie Dev teams in my opinion. While its regretful they must do everything pretty much in the shadows and in a limited fashion as to not incur legal actions taken against them, Im glad to have been able to experience a little of their game builds as much as i have.
Yeah that sounds like a quick way for jagex to have a reason to fuck over j1mmy alright. Not sure private servers are ever a good idea for any well known RS youtubers who have/had affiliations with jagex directly.
@NolifeXTC True, this really isn't technically an RSPS, though you are probably correct in that Jagex wouldn't be stoked about it. Such a shame because j1mmy content on this server would be stellar
Atleast some RS youtubers have displayed the Runescape Minecraft server without problem. I am not sure but wouldn't this be similar case since they pretty much use same attributes from game this server does.
@@5umm3rday yeah some, but the creators that HAVE showed this stuff, ARE much much smaller creators...... if you have someone like jimmy do this, it would be on Jagex radar within 10 minutes of the video being posted to jimmy's channel..
I have been playing on and off since i was 7 years old... 21 years.... DREAM !!!!!!!!!! How awesome is it to just see how big the houses are being a true adventurer! literally have said i wish WOW and Oldschool Runescape would combine !!! HOW COOL!!!!
I started playing RuneScape in 2002 until 2005 when the allure of the famous game World of Warcraft finally got the better of me. I remember the sense of amazement when I finally made it out of Norshire Abbey and looked into the Elwynn forests trees and I remember thinking damn this is amazing... I wanna chop these trees. Anyhow as I kept playing and getting my butt handed to me I learned that I could equip a wand on my priest. I went to Stormwind city and asked in trade for someone to make me a wand, some guy finally messaged me and told me to get him some "simple wood" and he would fork up the other materials (the dust unbeknownst to me at the time). Anyways I went back to Elwyn forest and to the Eastvale Logging Camp in search of a hatchet all the while thinking that a random hatchet would be spawn onto the ground and I could simply pick it up and I could finally chop down the trees and get the simple wood for my wand. I kid you not, I spent about four hours running around looking for the hatchet on the ground. I don't recall when I finally gave up I think I might have passed out in front of my keyboard that night looking for that hatchet. Was a nostalgia trip I'm getting as I am writing this comment. This project is going to be amazing and I can't wait to give it a try.
So cool. I've never played WOW but it is so nice to see RuneScape in a different setting and this one looks really well done and I can tell there has been a lot of thought put into how this could work. Not some cheap feel
This is the coolest thing I’ve [ probably ] ever seen in videogame. A crossover between my 2 favorite games. It’s crazy to see what Blizzard could’ve done, with classic, but they didn’t The people who work on this project are amazing
Looks pretty cool. I started with Wow as my first MMO. I tried Runescape after but couldn't deal with the graphics at that point, but always wanted to retry it. The biggest thing in this video is that I miss when we could get away with speed hacking back in Cata. Flying from SW to BWL in like 10 seconds was awesome.
With regards to the "face and text" popup in the middle, like in Runescape, I'd recommend taking a look at the addon "Immersion", if you aren't already familiar with it. It essentially does, what you're talking about, but it is currently designed for Quest and Dialog Gossip (aka the choices you can pick, when interacting with an NPC) - however, I imagine you could hook into the NPC whispers and show them. I have never played RS, but have basically been playing WoW since the beginning - and this video has me excited!
If only I had this back in like ‘04-‘05’, this is pretty funny/ironic since RuneScape was my first MMO because my family didn’t have internet or a PC. I rode my bike across town every weekend to the library to play there. Pretty convenient since it was a web browser based game and didn’t need to install a client (the library PC had installs blocked). I’ll definitely be checking this out when it’s more complete.
Same haha my father had internet. But I wasn't allowed to connect my laptop to it. So I made a visit to the library every weekend to continue my progress in Runescape.
Lmao my library had no blocks but reset on shutdown. Having to share the 4gb usb to install games would take half of the time between school ending and them closing
As a 28 year old gamer that still plays OSRS and played WoW from launch until Dragonflight's 1st raid after the launch, this looks so promising and I'm glad to see it's in the works. I'll be keeping eyes out for any test sessions or the official release!
Just love the idea of doing agility yourself. Always something I wish wow had. Like some jumping courses or puzzles. Like FF14 and guild wars. Looks amazing I’m so impressed with what you guys can accomplish with an old title 🔥
This is the best mix I’ve seen yet. I was a very big fan of RS from 2004 and on, but now really big on classic and retail wow. Always wondered what RS would be like in the realm of wow. Very excited!
I hope a lot of the osrs content creators get ahold of this, this would be soooooo fun dude, great idea. Can’t wait to see more pvp and pvm (just started the video and absolutely love this
Focus on Server function as well. If this game starts popping off, it'll crash the game by the time it hits 20k people online. Great design, can't wait to see more. I enjoy projects like these, reminds me of the 1:1 complete earth that was made in Minecraft.
Please lets this happen soon, i realy wanna play the full version of this amazing Game :) Jaggex and Blizzard should do an collab :P Looks realy amazing :)
Genuine side note: Without moving too far away from runescape potentially look to add flavoured items or a skill from the world of wow that works with the theme of runescape or quests / drops for pets that grant buffs ranging across all skills from herblore to cooking to combat
I feel what could benefit the world feeling so small is a FOW system particular outside tutorial island, as things are not ontop, maybe could be achieved with skyboxes and zones alignment
I have an idea about making it feel bigger too: - take a given straight line distance in runescape - walk over it (no run) and measure the time - run that same time in WoW and measure the total distance now you have a simple formula that converts distance in OSRS to WoW. I was thinking of matching the run runescape speed to WoW's but I think it would end up too cramped.
My God The Great Exchange... I did not even knew i lost so many memories with runescape hahaha, it was so nice watching this video!!! I want to play it already!
You made me remember an idea that came to me on 2008, I was in karamja killing lesser demons, and I thought wouldn't it be sick to be able to use mounts just like world of warcraft? A brown horse or something. usable in combat
A few days ago i had thought to myself. Why not use the runelite api/client to grab the ingame data, than draw that into a custom client such as this. So essentially your playing osrs. Albeit within wow! If you guys need a java dev and would like to implement this in just comment back and ill post my contact details. Awesome stuff tho! This project is very exciting to see! I started playing osrs when I was 11, and wow shortly after so this hits that sweet spot!
I think if I could adjust the environment, I would tweak the elevation to a higher scale. Seems like Ice Mountain is about half the size of Varrock Keep as it is now. Amazing work regardless.
Another person who proved to me that it is possible to do everything you can imagine in the game and I have my fingers crossed that everything goes without any major problems. I'm just sad because I'm such an idiot and I can't program to try something like that.
It looks good. Im really curious on wich period of RS this will be focussed on. It looks like 2005-2006. And what skills are gonna be availeble? I think the wilderness should look alot darker with much less visability. Also the world feels very small to me compared to Osrs. But im not sure if thats because you can look so far in the distance. And PLEASE make the furnaces look big like they do in osrs. All in all i think the person who created this did a really good job so far 👌 👍
I don't know how many people are on it atm, but this project is gonna need quite the developer team imo. Runescape has so much content and interactions that have to be put in. Hopefully we get to start playing before 2027
I've recently started digital painting/drawing again and wondering how hard it would be to make custom gear for WoW by using something like basic shirt "model" and texture paint over it. Kinda would like to give a try making some custom gear looks for WoW.
Should change those statues infront of lumbridge castle though.. bit weird to have Elvish statues there no? xD Great job otherwise though!! very interesting project!
You shouldn't copy RS mechanics 1:1 into the server. Walking around the world would feel awful in wow. It works in RS since you can click far away and then click again. You don't have to hold the movement key and your character pathfinds by itself. Prayer-flicking is probably a horrible idea. You should balance the prayer drain instead. Keep the autoattack-based combat and skilling. Mining and Smithing is pretty awful in OSRS, since you need level 90 to craft level 40 gear that you can just get from mobs. You should re-balance that. It would still feel like RS.
When the server releases it will effectively be 2005/2006 scape. So things like rune armor will still be highly regarded with some dragon pieces being available. But you'll be able to get rune armor from mobs aswell. Also I don't think running will be that big of an issue, teleports will still be a thing and wow has auto running implemented.
Only because you said to be brutal: The only problem I can philosophically imagine with the entire premise is that Runescape is a good game just be AFKing and doing something else at the same time. I guess you kinda get that with the channeling effect, but the way I have to move my character around in WoW, it just lends itself to a little less of that comfort of running Runescape in a tiny window to do Motherlode while I watch youtube or chat.
When I first started playing WoW, I came from RS. RS was the gateway to WoW for me. However, I had no idea how the game worked because I hated reading. So I just ran around killing things and buying copper armor from the vendors, thinking it played the same way as RuneScape did. I didnt do quests or anything because I assumed they were like RS and took ages for little rewards.
I played runescape from 2004 to early 2012.
I also played Warcraft 3. I spent probably thousands of hours developing a runescape scenario inside warcraft 3. I had hard coded almost two dozen skills.

Yeah, the private server scene has grown a lot.
Why isn't this more popular? I was expecting 500,000 views. :(

I would prefer the wow sounds to be honest. 😅 But the runscape music in the background
I would totally play this! Keep going! This is like the ultimate WoW2 everybody was dreaming off
Just love the idea of doing agility yourself. Always something I wish wow had. Like some jumping courses or puzzles. Like FF14 and guild wars. Looks amazing I’m so impressed with what you guys can accomplish with an old title 🔥

Im so happy youve found this, I've been following this channel for months now, hopefully shines a light on the hard work that's gone into this!

the only 2 mmorpg games i ever played and still play xD cant imagine what it would feel like to actually play a finished product of this xD
im a osrs and past rs player, i can say I've only ever played wow for a couple weeks, I will for sure play this.
People don’t understand this is something special keep working at it man hope I can get into the alpha
This looks really neat as someone who plays RuneScape I’d love to see a unique adaptation to rooftop agility
this is the coolest shit ive ever seen, both of my favorite games put together... fkn awesome
Heaven yeah! 😎😎✌🏽✌🏽😇😇✌🏽✌🏽
How did YT take 3 weeks to finally show me this?! This is a childhood dream right here!
thats crazy!
Looks great - low key though don't put walking in. Just let us run about; it's peoples most complained thing about in OSRS
Myyy God! This cow spot unlocked so many long forgotten memories for me hahahahahaha LOVE IT! I've been farming those cowhides for DAYS!
My God The Great Exchange... I did not even knew i lost so many memories with runescape hahaha, it was so nice watching this video!!! I want to play it already!
Runescape 2 and vanilla wow are the most nostalgic mmos to me
Good to see you trying other Pservers. I'd love to be able to play Castle Wars in 3D lmao
You made me remember an idea that came to me on 2008, I was in karamja killing lesser demons, and I thought wouldn't it be sick to be able to use mounts just like world of warcraft? A brown horse or something. usable in combat
runescape doesn't need mounts, you can legit Teleport almost anywhere in the game lol
Never played Runescape, but this looks so cool. I personally think the old school graphics of wow work the best with the vibe
Bosses as mounts as well as pets would be so dope and flying around the world
i love this project so much man, i do love both the games too! combining the best from both is an insane concept!
A few days ago i had thought to myself. Why not use the runelite api/client to grab the ingame data, than draw that into a custom client such as this. So essentially your playing osrs. Albeit within wow! If you guys need a java dev and would like to implement this in just comment back and ill post my contact details.
Awesome stuff tho! This project is very exciting to see! I started playing osrs when I was 11, and wow shortly after so this hits that sweet spot!
Not sure if this has been mentioned but I would absolutely love to play different races in this. Like, being a gnome would be so sick.
You guys should put Hatius Cosaintus in a pillory
I think if I could adjust the environment, I would tweak the elevation to a higher scale. Seems like Ice Mountain is about half the size of Varrock Keep as it is now.
Amazing work regardless.
I see the action bar on the bottom and my thoughts are, oh no they are using the evolution of combat. How could they!
i am so jealous. ive been in this server for months now and i am DYING to get into this alpha!!!
Keep running. Make the run button mount you up instead. Making walking recharge energy faster or just optional.
This looks amazing! Kinda wierd how the longsword looks more like a rapier tho x)
Another person who proved to me that it is possible to do everything you can imagine in the game and I have my fingers crossed that everything goes without any major problems. I'm just sad because I'm such an idiot and I can't program to try something like that.
I'm excited for this runescape but in a 3d environment that isn't so hard on the eyes is a cool idea.
as long as "tab targeting" isn't that big and required, i could see playing this.
It looks good. Im really curious on wich period of RS this will be focussed on. It looks like 2005-2006. And what skills are gonna be availeble?
I think the wilderness should look alot darker with much less visability.
Also the world feels very small to me compared to Osrs. But im not sure if thats because you can look so far in the distance.
And PLEASE make the furnaces look big like they do in osrs.
All in all i think the person who created this did a really good job so far 👌 👍
We got World of Runescape before GTA 6
i use to play wow and still to this day play runescape love to try this
😮 I never knew I needed something in my life this badly without knowing it...
Great work srlsy but i now what will happen if Blizzard notice it :D
This is what I wished for when I was 10. I’m 28 now. Hell yeah!
Playable Goblin would also be amazing.
This earned a sub. Pumped for it to come out.
This is all ive ever wanted in a game.
Been waiting for this mix up forever.
You won't need any other mmo when this hits beta lol this is amazing
This is gold! btw kul tiras can be the barbarians XD
This is sick
I don't know how many people are on it atm, but this project is gonna need quite the developer team imo. Runescape has so much content and interactions that have to be put in. Hopefully we get to start playing before 2027
Have barely played WoW but im super excited to try this :)
It looks beautiful, I’d play even if it’s not done
This is an incredibly cool concept and a very cool insite into the development process
so sick cant wait for this
I am SO hyped for this, glad to see you covered this.
I absolutely love this! Definitely gonna have to keep an eye on this and hope to get into it at some point
I've recently started digital painting/drawing again and wondering how hard it would be to make custom gear for WoW by using something like basic shirt "model" and texture paint over it. Kinda would like to give a try making some custom gear looks for WoW.

I can’t wait. Buying a computer for this.
yeah I'll be there when it opens.
This is going to be a whole lot of fun
Should change those statues infront of lumbridge castle though.. bit weird to have Elvish statues there no? xD
Great job otherwise though!! very interesting project!
This looks absolutely crazy
This is so insanely cool!
for agility maybe the monk Pillars they point and click to could work
You shouldn't copy RS mechanics 1:1 into the server. Walking around the world would feel awful in wow. It works in RS since you can click far away and then click again. You don't have to hold the movement key and your character pathfinds by itself.
Prayer-flicking is probably a horrible idea. You should balance the prayer drain instead.
Keep the autoattack-based combat and skilling.
Mining and Smithing is pretty awful in OSRS, since you need level 90 to craft level 40 gear that you can just get from mobs. You should re-balance that. It would still feel like RS.
When the server releases it will effectively be 2005/2006 scape. So things like rune armor will still be highly regarded with some dragon pieces being available. But you'll be able to get rune armor from mobs aswell.
Also I don't think running will be that big of an issue, teleports will still be a thing and wow has auto running implemented.
WoW has autorun, it's not a problem.

The only problem I can philosophically imagine with the entire premise is that Runescape is a good game just be AFKing and doing something else at the same time. I guess you kinda get that with the channeling effect, but the way I have to move my character around in WoW, it just lends itself to a little less of that comfort of running Runescape in a tiny window to do Motherlode while I watch youtube or chat.
holy fucking shit draynor manor looks amazing
When I first started playing WoW, I came from RS. RS was the gateway to WoW for me. However, I had no idea how the game worked because I hated reading. So I just ran around killing things and buying copper armor from the vendors, thinking it played the same way as RuneScape did. I didnt do quests or anything because I assumed they were like RS and took ages for little rewards.
