#315412 Music Cape Stats

Posted by JBG on 24 September 2019 - 11:08 PM

I just noticed the stats for the Music Cape are different from the other capes of accomplishment. I'm not sure what the stats are for the Quest Point Cape, but all the capes should have the same base stat bonuses. My suggestion is to have the Music Cape match the stats of the other skillcapes.

#311719 Taking a break?

Posted by JBG on 26 August 2019 - 12:18 AM

I'm not really sure what to call this, but I'm essentially taking a break from Alora. Not because I want to, but because I've got a lot going on in my personal life and a lot of work to do. The place I live at right now doesn't really offer decent internet (https://www.speedtes...sult/8533087125), so I'm focusing on moving. That's the other reason I won't be online for a while. Once I figure out where I'll be working when I move, I have to box up my computer and everything so I won't be able to use it for a little while. 

 

Might be a few weeks or a couple months. I'm not really sure yet. I'll probably be active on the forums from my phone, but my internet won't let me play the game without lagging or crashing randomly. 

 

(I realize most of you don't know who I am. This is for those of you who do and who care lol)

 

Thanks!

#309140 Better Client

Posted by JBG on 08 August 2019 - 10:52 PM

Okay I've done some improvements. 

 

App default size (800x600)

Application maximized; notice the icon change on the right. These had to be redone manually for the custom frame.

Application close prompt confirmation; using bootstrap modal for ease of use

I'll probably add the dropdown menu next, but that might get tricky. I basically have to add event listeners to each of the items, then force it to open in the user's default browser instead of opening in the application lol


Another update: added dropdown menus for website links and support links, as well as a discord invite button.

#309057 Better Client

+1 to this statement plzzzz

Theoretically, it is possible to use this type of application to create an app for iOS. BUT it doesn't mean it will work. The only thing this will do is allow us to add a custom frame around the client, similar to how OSBuddy and RuneLite look. We can add tools, and pretty much whatever we want. 

 

You have to keep in mind that in order for Alora to be on mobile, which nobody has actually stated it will be, there would have to be an immense amount of development done. The entire interface would have to be redone for mobile compatibility, and would take a really long time. Not only that, I'm not entirely sure how long it would stay on the app store once Jagex catches wind of it. 

 

TL;DR don't expect a mobile version of Alora from this.


I'm actually working on a mockup right now, but I'm on my friends laptop, so it's going to take some time. I've also never actually used the node-jre package before, so I have to play around with it to get it to work properly. 




#308995 Better Client

This is something that I've personally wanted to try for a while, but have never had a server to try it on. Hopefully, you guys can use this.

 

Instead of using the traditional .jar file for people to download, use ElectronJS to create an actual application. Electron uses the basic fundamentals of web development to create cross-platform applications, meaning the application will run on any operating system. It is completely customisable, which means you can add tools and whatever you want to the application. It also comes built-in with Squirrel updater, so any updates to the client would be handled automatically. The .jar file would still be included in the .asar package, but would not need to be accessed by the end user. Instead, it would embed the .jar file into the application and run it as it would on a browser. 

 

But JRE embeds don't work on browsers! Not to worry! There's a solution for that too. Since Electron uses Chromium, it's completely customisable. You can use the node-jre npm package https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-jre to embed the client into the application. Tons of applications currently use Electron as a base. I'm pretty certain OSBuddy and RuneLite both use Electron. 

 

I really hope this suggestion comes to fruition. If you need any help, I've been making websites for around 10 years, and I'm definitely willing to help out. 

 

Thanks!
