Welcome to the Open RSC Wiki

The Open RSC project was officially begun in June 2018, though has roots spanning as far back as 2009 with the release of Open RSCD v25. The Open RSC project has been a non-profit, community driven, open source initiative to build as close of a replica RSC game experience as possible, to allow custom features to be enabled with simple configuration file edits, and to keep the memory alive of what is now considered to be an abandonware game, Runescape Classic (2001-2018). For over a decade, many private servers have come and gone and nearly all have operated for monetary profits from donations, subscriptions, micro transactions, backroom deals, and bribery. Education, open source, and information sharing were spurned in the interest of "leech proofing" code, shameless money grabs, toxic individuals, felony DDoS attacks, and frequent deception. We strongly condemn those behaviors and instead see this as a hobby worth volunteering our personal time to work on for the enjoyment of others, personal learning, making new friends, and the nostalgia of years past. The Open RSC core team consists of real life professional developers, security consultants, DevOps managers, and more.


OpenRSC provides a near-authentic RuneScape Classic experience at the 1x experience rate with only a few minor quality of life improvements consisting of: bank notes, quick banking, dialog menu number key shortcuts, and non-intrusive global chat.

RSC Cabbage operates at a 5x experience rate, has custom sprites, new skills and abilities, added items, and more. This wiki is here to help players learn more about all of the features that RSC Cabbage has to offer. Unless stated explicitly, it is safe to assume that the wiki is only valid for RSC Cabbage and not the OpenRSC world.


Can I donate or subscribe for perks? No donations or subscriptions are accepted. We don't want any money. We also don't believe that dumping player money into ads will make any difference for long term player growth and retention. The best way to help the team is to help with submitting bug reports, fixing bugs, and spreading the word to your friends about us so they will want to come be a part of this too!

How often is Open RSC updated? Updates are pushed once a week on Sundays, generally.

How can I help? Join the Discord chat and come talk to us! Word of mouth recommendations, YouTube videos, and Twitch streams are welcomed for recruiting more players. There are many GitLab issue bug reports that need fixes too!
