Classic Spell Particles - More progress!

[peatrick]

Telin has been providing top shelf service to the community for years, now. When i had an issue on Red99 in 2013, almost immediately he logged on and showed up in Nektulos Forest to provide first hand support and resolved the issue. We're all able to enjoy a significantly more classically good experience due to the immense and continued efforts. Thank you kindly. You are THE best, bar none. Keep up the great work!

Telin,

Apologies if this has been asked before. What is the difference between the update you just posted and Classic Spells v0.98 in the original post?

[Telin]

My last few posts go into detail. There were some level adjustments to clarity, decreases to a couple caster effects (clarity and sicken) and enhanced all target effects because the client for some reason downgrades effects when you watch others cast on their target (other than on you).

Your own spells always appeared correctly, but other players and npcs did not. For example, with the new files, if you watch a Magician's fire bolt spell land on their target, the fire explosion will appear brighter and have a slightly higher particle density. Previously the classic fire explosion was showing up too dim and the flames were breaking up too much.

Nice updates on this, thanks for the efforts!

[Telin]

Small update:

--Bind Affinity's caster effects are now attached to the hands like in classic. The effects were adjusted to appear correctly for their new location. There is a ring around one hand at level 1 and both at level 24+.

--Also Rain spell effects don't last as long each tick. So they shouldn't be as overwhelming.

Fact.

Thanks all! I'm glad people like the work. I haven't done much lately, but there are a few things left to do.

I cannot get these to work? I'm playing on lockjaw progression, just came back after a great many years and HATE the new spell effects. I immediately found this post, and installed per the original post.

I put the 3 files (spellsnew.edd, spellsnew.eff and actoremittersnew.edd) into my D:/program files/Everquest folder

I then put all the files inside the spell effects folder I downloaded into D:/program files/Everquest/SpellEffects, merging the ones I downloaded with the default. I started up the game and I still don't have any changes :*(

I also tried deleting spellsnew.edd and spellsnew.eff and I can't see the hand particles, only the feet (ground) particles. So that didn't work either. What have I missed, any help available?
