Fixed an issue with the shielding spell at 24.

azxtan, when you were looking at the spells.eff file, which entry was the sheilding spell? i know you said you fixed the origin data for it but couldnt get the direction to follow the skeleton. However if I can call that same spell effect in the new spell file... i can hack this together.

Did some work with heals. corrected them as much as i could until i can find the dome effect offset

Snare and root are good to go. fixed some issues with invis.

changed naming convention, i realize there is a lot of work

Furinex, last night the sow effect from your file had the 24/39 effects backwards. Caster should have everything by 24 and target should get the flat circular bursts at head and feet at 39.

I'm 99% certain that SoW caster effects should be:
1 - Simple blue aura coming from fists
24 - Orbiting blue/white spherical particles around the waste then fade about 1 second after cast start
39 - Blue/white spherical particles rising from body, the most noticeable by far

You're right, the target should not have the fireworks flying from the head/shoulders until 39.

And I bring you the updated File with sow fixed properly (Hopefully), as well as Invis fixed for the correct levels, Levitate as well.

EDIT: Found the TGA for Mezz but holy mooooly, I dont really know what effects happen when, any insight?

Mez Casting:
Falling particles are tiny and close to body from 1-23. Larger particles from farther away start cascading from 24+. At 39+ two rings form around caster appears with rising particles going in a straight up.

Here's is a level 39+ Druid casting Harmony. Same as Mez line:

The rings around caster are both rising, kind of like the healing effect.

Im having issues finding the right entry in the spellsnew.eff file, or even the correct one in the spellsnew.edd file, Ive found multiple entries to what I believe is the TGA used, flare_blsp501.tga. There's a bunch of entries in edd, which are linked to eff, but which one is the right one? I dunno.
