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 :/

Well its a top of the line netbook, absolutely doesnt get much better than mine. Just...Well, when you have 40-80 players in one spot all spamming shit and dragon ae's going off, its kinda nuts.

Oh yes. Probably why they were turned off so often during raids in classic screenshots.

I never noticed any lag from spells. I always thought they didn't take much power. But even awesome computers will lag from having so many character models on screen. Especially with shadows enabled.

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.
