Some Servers are Given Activity Labels
Some servers are given activity labels, allowing players performing tasks that require or desire group participation to group together. In addition to the English servers, there are two RuneScape servers where the game is translated into French, five servers translated into German, and six servers translated into Brazilian Portuguese. There are also three servers for Runescape Gold Classic. RuneScape can be run with varying levels of graphical detail. High-detail graphics enhance texture and design, while low-detail graphics provide a cleaner look and can reduce lag on less powerful computers. RuneScape uses a graphics engine called "RuneTek 5", which provides support for multiple graphics platforms such as DirectX, OpenGL and video game consoles, as well as graphical effects such as sky boxes, bloom lighting and Z-buffering.
