Revival RSC adds many new settings for customising how the game looks and sounds, along with a number of ways to keep in touch with other players – server-wide announcements, global chat, an online list, clans and parties.

Settings

Hover over the wrench icon, the leftmost of the icons in the top-right corner, to open the settings panel. Click the heading to switch between the Social and General tabs, and use the mouse wheel to scroll. The Android app has a third Android tab.

Most settings are saved to your account, so they follow you between computers. Scaling and Stack Tooltips are saved on the computer you are playing on instead.

New settings

These settings are new to Revival RSC.

Sound rare drop

A special sound plays when you receive a rare drop. Sound rare drop lets you keep that sound while every other sound effect is muted: switch Sound effects off, and the Sound rare drop option appears beneath it. It is on by default. With sound effects on, the rare drop sound simply plays along with everything else.

The sound plays for:

This option resets to on each time you start the game.

Ground Items

Filters which items are drawn on the ground. Each click moves to the next mode.

Mode What you see
Show ALL Everything. This is the default.
Hide ALL No ground items at all
Only Bones Only bones, big bones, bat bones and dragon bones
No Bones Everything except those four kinds of bones
No Ashes Everything except ashes

Items hidden by this filter are also left out of Stack Tooltips.

Scaling

Enlarges the whole game window, for high resolution monitors. It is available on the PC client only. Use the [ - ] and [ + ] buttons beside Scaling to change the size.

Scaling type chooses how the picture is enlarged:

  • Integer – whole steps only (1x, 2x, 3x ...), keeping every pixel perfectly sharp. This is the default.
  • Bilinear and Bicubic – smoothed scaling in half steps, from 1x up to 4x.

The largest size offered depends on how big your screen is.

Stack Tooltips

Shows a see-through label over piles of items on the ground, listing everything in the pile as amount × item name with a small icon – so you can see what is on a tile without right-clicking it. It is off by default.

A label appears over any pile of two or more items, and over single items unless they are bones or ashes. The most valuable items are listed first, and the text is coloured by value:

Colour Meaning
Purple Rare and unique items
Red Worth 10,000 coins or more
Orange Worth 1,000 coins or more
Yellow Worth 100 coins or more
White Everything else

Switching Stack Tooltips on reveals more options beneath it:

Option Choices What it does
Stackables On / Off Include stackable items, such as runes, arrows and coins
Non-stackables On / Off Include items that do not stack
Wield or wear On / Off Include weapons, armour and jewellery
Food or drink On / Off Include anything that can be eaten or drunk
Position Bottom / Top Whether the label sits below or above the pile
Range On your tile, or 2, 4, 6, 8, 10 or 12 tiles How far from you labels are shown. The default is 4 tiles.
Opacity 0% to 100%, in steps of 20% How dark the box behind the text is. At 0% only the text is drawn. The default is 40%.

An item is left out if any category it belongs to is switched off – a sword, for example, is hidden by either Non-stackables or Wield or wear. When some categories are off the setting reads Partial.
