Rainmeter Not Working Properly With Runescape

[ZeroFoxtrot]

Hi! I'm new, and I love this program. But when I play Runescape, there's a weird bug. English is not my primary language so I can't really proper explain it.

So when I play Runescape Rainmeter flashes through it. That's the best explanation I can currently give you.

Please help!

Sound like graphics card issues. Do you have the current drivers installed for your graphics card?

[ZeroFoxtrot]

Yes, they're up to date. I can play Runescape fine if i quit Rainmeter. But when Rainmeter is active it flashes through Runescape.

If I understand you right, you're saying rainmeter appears on top of the Runescape window? I'm thinking this is more of a problem with Runescape itself. I don't play Runescape, but I play another game with a Java client and it doesn't have this problem.

Try setting the skins to 'On Desktop'

Right click -> Settings -> Postition

Didn't work, but thanks for trying.

Yeah it does appear on top of runescape but it flashes. I can give you a video if it's neccesary.

Please reply!

Easy tiger, no need to bump when it's only been one day.

What skins are you using that flashes through?
Post the code for one of them here in

If I remember right, runescape is a webclient game (think it's been eight years since I tried it, surprised it's still going), since you play it through your browser or a client window, the skins your using must be set to 'keep on top'. Changing the position should fix the issue. Doesn't really make sense any other way, but there could be something I'm missing. Seeing the code would help, as chewtoy said.

; That is, they do not affect the code and are here for demonstration purposes only.
; ----------------------------------

; HOWTO: Adding more disks
; ----------------------------------
; Adding more disks is a pretty straightforward process. Follow the following steps to turn
; this 2 disks skin into a 3 disks skin. You can then extend it even further as you wish.
;
; 1) Create a new variable called disk3=X: directly below disk2=D: in the [Variables] section
; 2) Create a copy of the [measureTotalDisk2] and [measureUsedDisk2] sections
; 3) Rename the copied sections to [measureTotalDisk3] and [measureUsedDisk3], respectively.
;    Also change Drive=#disk2# to Drive=#disk3#
; 4) Now find the [meterBackground] section and change 2Line.png to 3Line.png in ImageName
; 5) Create a copy of the [meterLabelDisk2], [meterValueDisk2], and [meterBarDisk3].
;    Rename all Disk2's in the copied sections to Disk3.
; 6) Now we need to change the Y= values to adjust height. Change Y= under [meterLabelDisk2]
;    to Y=80 (calculated by adding 20 to the Y= value of previous meterLabel).
;    Then change Y= under [meterBarDisk3] to Y=92 (calculated by adding 20 to the Y= value of previous meterBar).
; 7) Save the file as '3 Disks.ini'. Now right-click on the Rainmeter tray icon and select
;    'Refresh All'. Now go activate the '3 Disks.ini' skin and enjoy! :)
