Spell Lists

[chrsschb]

I'm currently running into an issue where a good number of my spell lists are empty. I have tried manually adding spells to the lists but they just don't work correctly.

More specifically, none of the pet's spell lists are populated. I tried doing the Air Pet and all he did was Proc Invis and didn't cast Stun even though I put the proc spell under Spell list 14 and the invis spell under spell list 13.

Please help!

The spell files for both the client and server must match. Have they been updated in both places?

He's talking about NPC spell lists, not the spell file :P

Have you tried using GeorgeS' NPC Loot Editor to change the spell lists? It works pretty well and is straight forward. You will need to at least restart your zone for spell list changes to take effect.

I have been and I zone to test changes.

I add the spells to the lists but they don't work correctly.

For instance, I added Air Elemental Strike to spell list 14 and Air Elemental Invisibility to spell list 13. When my air elementals attack they randomly proc Invis (not strike) and never cast invis.

Did you set the level range to be within the range that you want the NPCs to be casting them? I'm not sure why they are set to proc invis, that should be set as a buff. If you want them to cast a spell on a player, then you would need to make sure you set it as the right type.

If you want them to proc a spell when hitting (vs casting a spell), you need to set the spell ID as the proc. Also, you can check for parent lists that might use different lists of spells. You can have up to 1 parent list per spell list.

Is there a way for someone to export the lists to me and then me import them? I don't know why so many of mine are empty.

The last server I played on had full lists and it was a much older database.

Just download the PEQ DB and install it into another database name in your mysql server. Then, you can easily use Navicat to copy the table and paste it into your own database. I highlight the table I want to copy and then press CTRL+C and then go to the database I want to paste it into and delete the table I am replacing, and then press CTRL+V. Of course, it is best to backup your entire database before doing risky changes like this.

I installed a new database (1129 Rev 233) with the newest CVS Quests and DB files and when I opened it up with the GeorgeS Spell List Editor the spell lists there are also empty.

Am I doing something wrong?

Got the earth pet to work finally, but not any other pet.

Finally made some progress.

Air pet casts invis finally. Problem is he just chain casts it non-stop. On top of that while he's chain casting invis he's randomly stunning himself (with the air elemental strike spell).

No idea how he's proc'ing off of a cast, but he is.
