Payment options
By signing up to Patreon, you will get the latest working version of the Runelite.jar. Even after your subscription ends, the jar will continue to work until Runelite makes a major update.
OSRS is accepted for buying the plugins, please create a ticket in the Discord server
Alternatively you can setup from source, see instructions here. By setting up from source, you can update yourself and it will always work until Runelite makes an overhaul of their code (much longer than the jar).
Using the plugins
If you have Java installed, you should be able to simply double click the jar file. This will run Runelite with plugins installed.
If this does not work, see the Troubleshooting section below.
Ban rates
Overlays are not detected by Jagex and so cannot get you banned.

Plugins that use automation are no better than bot clients so all my plugins have NO AUTOMATION.
Runelite blocks any form of input simulation so even if I wanted to, without further modification I cannot send input to the client from custom plugins.
Runelite-specific disabled plugins
Runelite blocks the animations for certain activities and so plugins for these will not work on Runelite
- Inferno
- Chambers of Xeric
- Gauntlet
- Theatre of Blood
- Alchemical Hydra
- Vorkath
