If you have a snare with a blue background it is because the spell is AE based.

Red = normally single detrimental
Yellow = normally self only
etc.

If you find an icon that doesn't match up correctly in your idea of what is should be then its best to make a post in the bugs section so that Nilbog can fix it and push out a new spells_us.txt file.

The limitations of the client vs Titanium release and 'classic' is unavoidable. The Devs here decided to stick to the standard icons knowing that the client wouldn't always match up correctly. Personally I would of preferred to use all of the icons available in Titanium but it's their show so I'll tag along with it.

Off hand, which snare spell are you talking about?

1. Check post one and make sure you have the UI setup for your version of the Default UI.

2. Velious - TITANIUM BOXSET ONLY - Now make a new folder in your Everqust\uifiles folder and call it 'velious' (without the quotes). Download the velious UI from >>>here<< and unzip into your velious folder listed above. Load up Project1999 and when in game type /loadskin velious to load up the Velious UI:

As you can see its a lot like the classic velious UI but you can modernize it a bit buy downloading the Velious extras file >>here<< and unzip it to your 'velious' UI folder, overwriting all files.

PLEASE NOTE ALL VERSIONS: The optional icon downloads in post one are NOT designed for this UI - they are 24x24 square rather than the supplied 36x28.

I would love these icons that you use for your UI for the one I use "Almost Classic UI" I've been trying to paint over the spells_icons file and that doesn't work. Here is what the icons look like for the UI I use (squared and don't sit right on the bar kinda. Was hoping I could get some assistance.

The snare i'm refering to is level 1 Druid snare that I though had a red background like the picture you have there. The icon looks like this.

I have to upload the picture somehow first..

Which is level 1 non-aoe snare. but I've been trying hard to work with this UI and I know you don't care for it, and the devs don't much either. This is a nice UI that in a way (is not classic classic, but offers the same appearance). But I've tried using a program called Gimp 2.6 to edit the spells_icon files / gemicons1 file and none of that seems to be working. I'm thinking because those icons are coded in the UI somehow and I can't just "paint over them and save the file". If I could borrow your icons from that velious UI if you know how I can load them into this UI that would make me SOOO happy!! Anyways Savok thanks for your time and consideration. I just need someone that knows what they're doing to get it done, and you seem like the person that may be able to help.

Thanks for all the guides/files/spell icons guys it was really easy to follow.

Added more rounded icons for spellgems for those UIs that use more rounded gem holders.

This with vert ui and I am a freaking happy kid ! :p

Thanks for posting this. TKing work from eqinterface were clitchy, those one works #1 :D

Why are all the pretty pictures gone in the first post? And some links are broken too :(

I'm trying to find out why the FTP access is down from Comcast at the moment.

Edit: Look like the Comcast FTP server IP address is down atm.
