[nilbog]

Mine look fine in game, with the latest spells_us.txt

There were changes made to the spells_us.txt file nearly a month ago for the new spell gem alignment.

Savok made a step by step walkthrough on updating your UI that has a variety of different things available.

Thanks Nilbog. That fixed mine.

I downloaded this file:
http://home.comcast.net/~savok/proje...ssic_icons.zip
And replaced the files in my uifiles\default folder

They're using the correct spell icons now, however the transparency seems off. The Icons are laid on top of the spell gem with boxy corners protruding from the edges, rather than an icon behind the spellgem, showing through the center.

I updated today's patch and have a problem with about 15 spell icons in my spellbook. Those 15 icons are light blue and have no picture. What's worse, I can't memorize them for use. So now I have about 15 spells that can't be used at all. It's making playing impossible for me.
If you look at Emoqq's screen shot, I have the same blue icons he does and possibly for the same necro spells. I know some spells like gather shadows are the same blue ones I have.

I've tried the patch in this thread to no avail. I've tried to revert back to the last patch to no avail.
I believe that I'm going to have to reinstall the game at this point.
Any help would be nice.

I have not tested the new updates yet, but with any new files, just decided to take a peek.

The "Old" spells_us from 7/15/10 has worked flawlessly and opens easily for inspection. However, the "New" 8/2/10 spell_us has trouble opening and reads as some kind of mish mash between japanese and chinese. I have attempted to download the equichanges3 files multiple times but it continues to download this new unreadable script.

Is this file corrupt on your end?

Samples are below.

Use a different text editor, that's just bad luck. "帰" in Unicode is the same bytes as "0^" in ASCII, so something in the new version's data is causing it to "helpfully" assume the text file is in Unicode.

I did the fix from Savok's post, and it fixed everything. Thanks Savok!

They're using the correct spell icons now, however the transparency seems off. The Icons are laid on top of the spell gem with boxy corners protruding from the edges, rather than an icon behind the spellgem, showing through the center.

I see what's going on now, rather than using the set of icons for spell gems, it's using the square icons that should appear in the buff window.

[Yoite]

what changes were made to the spell file? do i even need to update from the one im using now.

[Yoite]

what i meant to say was, since i dont play a bard or mage and dont see to be affected by these spell changes can i just not update my spell file to avoid these problems?

[oldhead]

I want my old icons back =(
