[Swish]

I'm glad we're all saying the same thing about the particle effects and colours at the stated levels [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Same here, I cant wait for this to get implemented!

BTW: Swish, My co-workers and I sat in front of my PC for like 20 minutes laughing at your Sig gif. Is that of some crazy beard guy who notices he's suddenly on one of those big screens at a football or baseball game and is like... "Oh shit I better do something insane!"?

I dont know who it is but I think I remember reading something about it a while ago. 90% sure he's in a courtroom... but that doesn't explain how he got the lighter [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

A court room!? Wtf!

[ryandward]

I think he's at a concert and they just panned the camera on him to do something crazy, that's what the video looks like.

What is the plan on deploying this to the clients when complete? Through eqemulauncher?

[Arterian]

Please do this!

Tash/Slow/Drones of Doom (Wasp sting, that whole line) needs the effect coming out of the hands. Chords of Dissidence bard song (Level 2 I believe) should be like the mage DS and druid immolate dot line, immolating around the hands only, not going in any direction. Hows the progress coming on this? Anything we can do to help?

Thanks for added info. The progress is that I'm busy with real life. [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I'll work on it again this weekend. It really isn't that difficult to change. I explained the methodology.

If you want to help find the name of all the effects for the spells on the list on the front page. This can be done by finding the SpellEffects image file for the spell then searching the spellsnew.edd file for effects with that file name. Change the effect file name to something else, save and see if the spell changed. Once it changes you know you've found the right effect.

If you want to go a step further you can set the spot I outlined to FA CX where X is a value from 0-F which should change the direction. Find which value is closest to classic.

Well I didn't Junk it up!!! I got snare done, and here's the outline so you can add it to the code. BTW I used a slightly different methodology to get this accomplished and I got it on the first try, Im gonna try the sow effect next, if I get the same result, then we'll have a really STATIC method to changing ALL of these.

Anyways, Here's what I got for Snare:


Rank 1

I will post the methodology if it actually works more than once, will return shortly with some more results.

EDIT: Some more things about the first 3 pictures... The items I changed are highlighted in only the bottom picture, however you can see the numbers in the top 2 if you look on the end of the column 7 lines down from the last line with the file name on it.
