HoT - RoF + Weapons and Spell Effects (a bit more info)

[NatedogEZ]

BACKUP ALL FILES FIRST (incase something goes horribly wrong)

Base Everquest Folder Files! ... (C:\Everquest\) - or wherever it is located for you..
-spellsnew.eff (This file seems to show SpellEffects / Nimbuses)
-spellsnew.edd
-enviromentemittersnew.edd
-ActorEmittersNew.edd
Replace these 4 files with ones grabbed from a Live or RoF client! (Live is free to play so easy to get those!)


Grab these 3 Folders from a Live or RoF client
ActorEffects, EnvEmitterEffects, and SpellEffects -- (merged folders without overwriting files)


Search all equipment files with... (also go in base everquest folder) (C:\Everquest\)
*equip.eqg

May need to search for "hofequip4hof" separately.. also there are a few more in there like... "holeequip.eqp" and "mansionequip.eqp" I personally didnt look through those.. but I am guessing they have more items in them.. if you want to add them as well



Add lines to GlobalLoad.txt (inside C:\Everquest\Resources\)
ONLY IF THEY ARE NOT IN THERE
If you did the extra equip files that I missed.. just add them as well to the bottom

Also make sure to grab ALL "walletXX.eqg" files
NOTE: Part of this section may already be in your GlobalLoad.. so just add the ones that are missing (and add more if there are more in the new Live client)

Working Nimbuses! (On older UF client)

If you want item icons.. make sure to follow the guide... here..
http://www.eqemulator.org/forums/showthread.php?t=32835



I decided to alter Akka's view script to show only nimbus effects... and there are a lot... (Some are even missing... since I only grabbed ones from my current spellfile! *115ish)




Update: ... Item Icon File (C:\Everquest\uifiles\default\EQUI_Animations.xml)
EQUI_Animations.xml (FOR UF up to dragitem188 is what I have in here) .. Backup your old one.. and replace with this
REQUIRES: Live files....

Look inside..... "C:\Everquest\uifiles\default\"

Grab ALL "dragitemXXX.dds" files and copy them from your live client into your UF client .. make sure to put it in the same directory ... \uifiles\default\
