Frequently Asked Questions

Who are you?

One developer, long-time OSRS ironman player, full-time software engineer and DevOps professional. I built Pluginscape because I wanted automation that ran inside RuneLite without needing a custom client. The full story is on the Trust & Transparency page.

Are you affiliated with RuneLite or Jagex?

No. Pluginscape is an independent third-party plugin provider, unaffiliated with RuneLite, OpenOSRS, or Jagex.

Why choose Pluginscape over competitors?

Pluginscape plugins run on vanilla RuneLite. No custom client, no forked launcher, no separate scripting environment. You keep the client you already know. For a full breakdown of what gets installed and what it does, see the Trust & Transparency page.

Is using Pluginscape plugins safe?

Automation is against Jagex's Terms of Service and carries inherent risk — we're transparent about that. Our plugins have been tested across hundreds of hours on dedicated accounts and use human-like timing and behavior patterns to minimize detection risk, but no tool can guarantee zero bans.

What is your ban rate?

Ban rates depend heavily on user behavior: session length, activity choice, and how you combine automation with manual play. Following our recommended guidelines, our internal testing has shown very low ban rates.

What can I do to reduce my ban risk?

• Keep sessions to 2–4 hours with breaks
• Don't run automation 24/7
• Avoid heavily monitored, over-botted locations
• Mix in manual play
• Don't automate on accounts you can't afford to lose

Does Pluginscape require a custom client?

No. Every plugin runs on the official, unmodified RuneLite client. This is our biggest differentiator.

Will my IP get flagged?

Jagex's detection focuses on in-game behavioral patterns, not IP addresses. That said, it's good practice to keep automation off the same network as any main account you care about.

What exactly does the plugin install on my machine?

Two files in your RuneLite folder: a plugin JAR and a small agent JAR (~130 KB). Nothing else. We document every file, every outbound request, and everything the plugin does NOT do on our Trust & Transparency page.

How do I install a plugin?

Check out our setup page for more detailed instructions.

1. Purchase and download your plugin JAR
2. Drop the JAR into your sideloaded plugin folder
3. Enable developer options in RuneLite
4. Run RuneLite and the plugin appears in your list

Do I need anything besides RuneLite?

No. No custom client, no extra software, no config files.

What operating systems are supported?

Windows, macOS, and Linux — anything RuneLite runs on.

Does the plugin auto-update?

Yes. Plugins check for updates on startup. All updates are free for life.

Can I run multiple plugins at once?

Yes. Plugins are independent and can run simultaneously in the same RuneLite session.

How does licensing work?

Each license is tied to your Hardware ID (HWID). By default, a license covers two devices — so you can use it on both your desktop and laptop, or share with one friend. Learn more on our Trust & Transparency page.

Can I use more than two devices?

Yes. You can purchase additional license slots at checkout.

Can I transfer my license to a new PC?

Yes. Open a support ticket with your license details and we'll reset your HWID lock.

Do licenses expire?

No. You pay once and get lifetime access including all future updates for that plugin.

Do you offer refunds?

We don't offer refunds once a plugin has been activated. If you're having technical issues, contact support before activating and we'll sort it out first.

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept cryptocurrency (BTC, ETH, LTC, and more) via our self-hosted BTCPay Server. Traditional payment processors don't support game automation software — this is an industry-wide reality, not a Pluginscape choice. Available coins are shown at checkout.

Is payment secure?

Yes. Payments are processed on-chain through our self-hosted BTCPay Server. We never see or store your wallet credentials. No card details, no middleman holding funds.

Do you offer discounts?

We run periodic promotions and bundle deals. Bulk purchase inquiries are welcome via our support channel.

Is there a free trial?

No free trials, but each plugin page includes a live showcase so you can see exactly how it works before you buy.

How human-like are the plugins?

Plugins use randomized timing, configurable break schedules, and natural interaction patterns. They're built to behave like a real player, not a metronome.

Can I configure the plugins?

Yes. Every plugin has a settings panel in RuneLite covering behavior, location, break intervals, and skill-specific parameters.

What happens if the plugin gets stuck?

Plugins include timeout guards and self-recovery logic. If recovery fails, the plugin stops safely rather than looping.

Do plugins work on ironman accounts?

Yes. All account types are supported.

How do I get support?

Open a ticket via our support channel. We aim to respond within 24 hours.

What if a plugin breaks after a game update?

We monitor updates and push patches within 24–48 hours of any breaking change.

Do you take feature requests?

Yes, open a ticket or post in our community channel.
