How to Use

Using the patcher is straightforward. Just download the script, make it executable, and run it with administrator privileges.

// 1. Make the script executable

chmod +x ./runelite-sound-patcher

// 2. Run the patcher with admin privileges

sudo ./runelite-sound-patcher

Why sudo? Administrator privileges are required to correctly update the system's symbolic links for the audio libraries that RuneLite depends on. The script is open-source, so you can review the code yourself.
