Classic Spell Particles - More progress!

[Buriedpast]

Can we have an option to go back to simple P1999 stuff?

Because...This shit lags me the f*ck out, as much as I LOVE it.

Sure, at home on my PC all the glitz and glam is on, but even on the best netbook money can buy, its FPS under 10 with all this stuff on minimum with these effects.

Even though it's not a classic option, These effects can still be adjusted for opacity and density via the options menu if your system can't handle it. Most of the animations are similar so I'm not sure why you can't handle minimum settings on your notebook :/

This isn't classic, so it won't be part of the project. But.. This is a proper rain of frost! [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

Well you're a shoe-in for custom spell content should this server ever go that route.

If you hear sounds but see nothing, it's possible that your spell particle image files are not not in eq/SpellEffects. Perhaps they're in an additional SpellEffects folder inside. Make sure they're loosely stored in the first SpellEffects folder where all the others are located.

about the lag, i have a decent machine and eq runs fine but for some reason after using these files the cancel magic spell and other spells that use the same effect lag pretty bad. no other issues i can think of that ive seen but the cancel magic effect.

edit - i notice my files are out of date so ill update and post back if it still cause the same issue

Thanks for the feedback! I will take a look at this effect tonight. I haven't lagged yet, but it could probably be scaled back slightly and achieve the same visual effect.

the problem is that it says that my spells files are old and that i need to uptade them :/ and i did download the new ones and replace the old ones but it still doesnt work ;(
