One of the most vocal (in that Jagex's update won't stop them) botting clients have just given up; and in fact has joined up with Jagex to help prevent bots in the future:

Good job Jagex!

In case people don't want to actually go to their site...

Insert Nelson's "haha" laugh here

Fantastic.

Less bots the better.

Well well, a bit more submissive than what the lot had to say earlier: http://runescape.salmoneus.net/forums/i ... pic=352152
Community friendly all the sudden.

I wonder what Jagex did though? It's obvious that they changed something in the guts of the game (sort of memory obfuscation), but surely, a lot more bots can simply work using the visuals of the game, imitating a player?
Any of the bot site scourers seen something about the technical side?

This is what I've read from a couple different places:

They made a massive object array (object[][]) which contains all client data. Every time you restart the client all data is on another place in the array.

Thanks! What I thought. ^^'
And probably a different key each time to encrypt the lot.
I guess it takes a lot more juice to run a visual bot, so less bots per machine, and more money for electricity...
