GeorgeS, a tools developer for eqemu, made a nice compilation of the particle videos.

If anyone is interested in browsing the particle effects and possibly contributing the correct particle #, these videos show high quality casts of the different particle effects available to us with the client. (large download, slow)
http://www.georgestools.eqemulator.n...cyclopedia.zip

After downloading and extracting, they can be found in this folder:
spell_encyclopedia\spell_encyclopedia\Spell_Animat ion_Viewer\Spell_Animations_Hi_Res

Sanity Warp, totally 100% wrong graphic.

I've downloaded, set up the tool, and got it to work properly. However, the videos are all of the modern spell particles, rather than the classic spell particles which we use, making it impossible to use this to check for incorrect particles.

I don't know if we use a different library, but classic had fewer than 20 unique particles, and the spells in this spells_us.txt file point to 236 unique particle effects.

Edit:

I poked around on his site. If we wanted one of these for our server (If one doesn't already exist under a different spells.txt file) I could create a workaround, fraping the existing spell particles, and replacing each of the existing AVIs with what they would have been in classic, using the spell effects that we already have live!

They are in there, just not all in good order.

73.avi is healing
74.avi is see invisible
75.avi is poison
etc

I *think* those videos cover all the titanium-supported effects. note: the spells being recorded there are instantly cast, so any hand effects aren't included.

I don't even think I used the georges spells tool. I did use the spell_editor program from ailia, that works fine for reading the spells_us.txt file. The one we provide with the eqchanges.zip will always be where you can find the latest for p99.

Bump. Anyone seeing spells with the wrong graphics?
