Default Random Visual Bug

not sure why this happens but, ever since a few patches ago I'll randomly have times where blinking shields (orb of infinite void), or essence of nature style items, hell even swiftwind. They wont blink / be animated. Just static. Curious as to what file controls these item graphics and if I can just replace it from an older install to fix?

Try this.
go to https://wiki.project1999.com/EQ_Classic_HD , download and patch highres_s3d.zip (1.1 gb) and then EQClassicHDP99.zip (302 mb), overwrite all files.

not sure wtf file it is but its silly haha

Edit: also like i said in the first post, it will randomly fix itself sometimes when passing certain amounts of lighting? don't know why that fixes it but it does every blue moon..... very odd

The issue still exists, but it's in HD now. I have no idea what file it is, but it's still

I keep hearing about this problem but I've yet to experience it. FWIW I'm usually playing on a super old winxp pc with a super old nvidia card. EQ often doesn't play nice with modern hardware and operating systems.
