Default Sorry to be the bearer of foul news...

I'm afriad the the reason why your wisp pops up as a human is, in all likelyhood, because you are in a zone whose 3d package file (i believe that it's a .s3d file but I might be wrong) does not include 3d textures for the will o' wisp. Willowisp is NOT a universal texture, unlike all the PC and EQLive pet models. If you REALLY wanted to make a will o' wisp into a universal model, you might try editing the 3d package files in your EQ directory.

I'll look into it for you and get back with you, but I can't promise much.

One thing I might suggest if you do manage to somehow edit the package files is to make the spell that summons the wisps into an outdoor only spell, then you would only have to edit about 1/2 of the 3d package files (again, I'm not entirely sure this is even possible at all).

Also, people who play on your server would not be able to see the will o' wisp models unless they patched to your newly forged wisp-inclusive 3d package files. Which is intensely annoying, too.

You might consider using the Drake (ID # 89) as opposed to the will o wisp as the pet model, as it is quite cool and also (more importantly) it is a universal model.

I am curious, though, if you were actually able to make a spell that summons the pet you've created... That's something that has eluded me for a couple days...
