Catalyst Update Log 1

Royal Titans (Branda and Eldric): solo or joined instances from the Bosses tab, fire and ice walls, elementals, phase 2 blast. The exact tile positions and timings are estimates and may still change.
Pest Control: rewards screen (Void Knight) and in-game overlay now use the OSRS interfaces.
Slayer rewards: the full OSRS rewards screen (Unlock, Extend, Buy, Tasks, Cosmetics). New tasks for creatures that had extensions or unlocks but no task; unlock-only tasks are only assigned once the unlock is owned.
Assassin: fights alongside you, has perks and moves more sensibly (no walking backwards, no diagonal melee, no walking through objects).

Social tab: Chat-channel, Your Clan and View another clan panels.
Clan settings pages: Overview, Members, Applicants, Hall, Permissions, Rank Titles (drag and drop, rename), Bans, Events, Interests, Icon (banner) customisation.
Real clan ranks with rank icons, clan cloaks and vexillums (one per colour). Wield a vexillum to Recruit other players. Guests can look at a clan and chat in it.
Friends chat setup on the OSRS interface.

Equipment stats (View equipment stats), Items kept on death, Rune pouch (with the RuneLite Rune Pouch plugin), Shops (stock and inventory), Character design / makeover (Makeover Mage), Collection log, Boss health overlay, Opponent Information plugin.
Split private chat and server broadcasts now use the OSRS private chat overlay, on by default for new accounts.
All Settings, Interfaces page: your choices are saved per player.
New loading screen in the OSRS style, with OSRS wording.
Web client: now runs on the real OSRS gameframe (chatbox, social tab, equipment, addons sidebar, window mode).

Fresh install starts about 2.5x faster (about 54 s to 22 s): models now download only when something needs them. Existing caches are unaffected (about 9 s).
Vexillums are two-handed and use the two-handed sword poses.

Animations (silk stall and other skilling) being cancelled by every click on an object.
Random kicks and delayed animations (variable sync no longer floods the server).
Duke Sucellus invisible in his room, then drawn as a black silhouette. All skeletal-animation NPCs are fixed.
Slayer Tasks page buttons all saying "View List".
Clan: owner leaving, interests saving, guests popup disconnecting you, rank lists and Nobody option, guest panel empty or stuck on "Connecting...", Recruit click not registering, vexillum emblem colours.

Fresh clients stuck at the loading screen on custom models (group ids above 65535 were cut short).
Walls and buildings missing after the lazy models change.
Chat collapse needing a second click; typing blocked while an OSRS window was open; Escape not closing the message prompt; chatbox scrolling with the wheel.
Friend and ignore list buttons opening two prompts at once.
Gameframe side tabs after the fifth staying disabled; orbs missing until the XP counter was toggled; All Settings toggles doing nothing; Show data orbs setting.
Yell lines: names, menu and tooltip now match public chat. Extra space in chat menus.
Shops opening slowly (icons now fill in over a few frames).

XP drops and XP tracker counting the login stat sync as gains; XP tracker stale while fighting an NPC.
Boosts plugin showing a false attack boost.
Opponent Information crashing on NPCs without a definition.
Regen meter rings lining up with the frame's orbs.

Old interfaces replaced by OSRS ones: legacy equipment screen, items kept on death, collection log, task interface, rune pouch, quick prayers, keybinding screen, shop widgets, appearance screen, orbs drawn by the client, legacy tab area and gameframe art, legacy chat buttons, legacy private chat, broadcast manager and countdown.
The old quick prayer set-up is gone until it is rebuilt on the OSRS interface. Attuned perks have no screen until one is designed.

Added the pets from the 240 update, including the puppy pets such as the huskies.
Puppy pets no longer show as the wrong NPC (skeleton, zombie) and now follow you.

Custom models moved to ids 75000+ so they no longer overwrite vanilla models; custom items use 40000-40659.
Custom item names fixed (51 items showed the name of the vanilla item their model came from).
Custom items showing the wrong or tiny model fixed (97 items pointed at model 75000; some vanilla items such as the Masori assembler max cape pointed at replaced models).
Duplicate custom items removed (Guilded hunter set, some Dragon (cr) and Graceful (cr) pieces, Mixed hide top).
Old colour tags (@red@ and so on) converted to the new colour format everywhere.
Health bars pick their size from the NPC's maximum hitpoints.
Hosidius NPC spawns corrected; custom Hosidius maps no longer packed.
Vanilla item definitions filled in for the 240 cache.
