Unknown Spell

[Reynin123]

Tried so many times... This is what ive done

1. Edit spells using Allias Editor.

2. Save.

3. Import that spell file into my db.

4. Export it into a spells_us.txt for my server/eq folder.

5. Reboot my server, login.

At this point I can see the spell using #findspell, I can also #cast it and it summons what its supposed to. When it comes to learning it on the class I want tho it comes up as Unknown Spell, rather than the name "PET TEST"

ANY help is greatly appreciated. thanks.

I don't see in your steps where you put that spell file in your client directory.

4. Export it into a spells_us.txt for my server/eq folder.

thats what i meant sry i wasnt specific. I put the spell file into my db and my client directory where i run EQ from

[lerxst2112]

Make sure the ID isn't too high for the client you're using. The spell file is just a text file, so you can also open it in notepad or whatever and search for the name. If the name isn't in it then you've missed a step somewhere.

This sounds most likely an ID that's too high for the client, Titanium is 9999, SoD is approx 22999.

thats the issue then cuz the spell is 28001, how do i change the ID #? Appreciate the help btw ty!

[Chrono]

Just go into spells_new table and find 28001, and find an ID that's less than 22999 that isn't already in use and put it as that instead

ok thanks a lot ill check it out :)

[Reynin123]

can i just delete all the spells over 22999 since there not gonna work anyway? its a HoT spell file im using so spells go up to 28k, but i only run a level 70 max server

[Chrono]

You could, that's what I did to mine. But sometimes the abilities are good to refer to when you want to make similar spells, I would suggest perhaps making a copy of the table called spells_new_backup or something, then delete up to 22999.
