RuneLite is a free, open source OldSchool RuneScape client… that didn’t let you save your password and now you can!
The official stance from the RuneLite team is that this isn’t a feature they are interested in adding (See #13652 and #249) That’s completely fine! We can create a fork of the project!
Isn’t that a security risk?
Do you leave your password manager logged in? Yes?
Do you leave RS on your phone logged in? Yes?
Do you have the RuneScape Steam client linked with your Steam account that auto logs in? Yes?
Yes. Saving your password to disk is not super secure. We are trading a little security for a lot of convenience. Just enable an authenticator and type that in once a month.

Have you ever wanted to access data from an application that doesn’t provide a Public API? Well I’ve got great news. That application is getting its data from somewhere. You just need to find out how to plug into it! This process is called Reverse Engineering (Or hacking if you want to pretend you’re really smart) a Private API. I will document some tips and useful tools that will help you reverse any Private API from any application on any platform.
There are a handful of tools that can be used to complete this task. Windows 10 was my platform of choice for working with the data so I’ll be sharing what I used on here.
Fiddler: Fiddler is an HTTP/HTTPS Proxy that can be used to intercept and decrypt SSL/HTTPS traffic. This application is also useful for replaying requests, creating custom request, and exporting a request as cURL to be converted into Python 3. Fiddler is free to use, just sign in with your Google Account! Make sure you install the certificate and enable HTTPS mode so you don’t miss any requests. https://www.telerik.com/fiddler
MitM Proxy: Man in the Middle Proxy is a great way to read data from Smart Phone Applications. This is what I used to get all the data I needed for my API reversal. Simply download the executable from https://mitmproxy.org/ to start up a server (disable your firewall or open port 8080) and then enter your PC’s IP address into the Proxy Server settings of your Phones WiFi settings. After that navigate to http://mitm.it/ on your Phone and install the provided certificate. Follow the provided instructions on http://mitm.it/ and start sniffing!
Tips
Create a text document to save all your finding and especially any useful URL endpoints you find. Having your information organized will help to ensure that you don’t waste time on the same thing twice or need to proxy your device over and over again to find what a request should look like.
Modern WebP format images opening in Photoshop CS2 (2005)
The abandonware Photoshop CS2 still does everything any aspiring content creator could ask for. It even works great on Windows 10. Quality software created by quality people. However in todays modern internet we have a few new formats that were far after CS2’s time. The main problem I run into is opening WebP format files. I’ll go to grab an asset I assume to be a .PNG off Google Images, try to open it up in CS2 and I’m met with the error “Could not complete your request because it is not the right kind of document.” but luckily for us the competent developers of CS2 thought ahead. They allow for plugins to extend the support file types in the program!
WebPShop, the plug-in for opening and saving WebP images directly from Adobe Photoshop
available under the Apache-2 License this open source WebPShop plugin works just fine for our legacy version of Photoshop. Unfortunately they aren’t distributing x86 binaries of the latest version but the Apha 0.2.1 version seems to have everything we need anyway. You can download the binaryfrom the 0.2.1 release page. You want WebPShop_0_2_1_Win_x86.8bi. Once that’s downloaded place the 8bi file into C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS2\Plug-Ins\File Formats or wherever you have CS2 installed. Then fire up Photoshop and open any WebP file you like!
Export Options
The plugin also allows you to save .webp files with a quality slider! Just use File > Save As... > WebP and the WebPShop compression Window will open. Enable the preview and compress to your liking.
