VPN split tunnelling for OSRS - Runelite

[north spindle]

Hello all

On the basis that RS doesn't really like VPNs, I've managed to get VPN split tunnelling to work (using both Proton and Mullvad VPNs) on RS3 but I can't get it to work on OSRS. On trying to launch RL from the Jagex Launcher, I get the above error message - which is 100% connected to the VPN as when I disconnect it works immediately.

On RS3, the steps required for me were 1. Add split tunnelling application exceptions to the Jagex Launcher and the RS3 client; and 2. (on Proton but not Mullvad) add split tunnelling IP exceptions for the game world IPs I was playing on.

I've done the equivalent for OSRS - I think. See second attached image.

Anyone managed to get this running (ideally with Mullvad or otherwise without game world IP filtering? Proton doesn't like my computer much)?

Thanks in advance.

I think you need to run RuneLite (configure) from your start menu, and enable the ipv4 option
If that option isn't there then you need to install the latest version of RuneLite

thanks a lot - I'll try that after work and report back/try the RL discord if it doesn't work

didn't have a chance to try this until yesterday - it worked, thanks. For anyone having similar issues, I needed to reinstall runelite (make sure to log in to Runelite so profile is saved first) in order to have the option to enable ipv4 appear.
