tbh i haven't tried scribespells in quite a while. i accidentally cleared out my db *and* trashed my backups today so i figgured it'd be a good time to start from scratch....

Also, did you compile the source yourself, or are you using the pre-compiled binaries for Windows? Do you know if you are set to use the spells_new table or the spells_us.txt file for loading spells on the server? The default with the pre-compiled binaries is to load from the spell file, not the table (which I think needs to be changed soon to use the table as default).

Yep, compiled 'em myself - been doing that since we started with the 1129RevXXX. Haven't touched the source, so if the default is loading from spell file, it's loading from the spell file. Using the spell file from the SoF Client on both the server and the client. (what's the change to pull from the database? i can try that and re-compile)

Have you edited the spell file at all from the standard one that comes with SoF? If you edited it, there is a chance that something got messed up. If you used the Ailia/Bleh editor to edit it, it will mess up SoF spell files, since it is only designed to work with Titanium spell files. You can still use the ailia/bleh editor, but if you do, you have to import the file into the database after you edit it and then export it back out of the database so it has all of the required fields for SoF. Otherwise, it will cause major issues and probably crash your SoF client.

nope - just copy - pasted the spells file from the sof folder to the server.

Have you tested the server using a Titanium client to see what happens?

Nope - i'll give it a shot and post back.

Last, I did make a few recent changes to how the spell are loaded to the player profile for SoF, but they shouldn't cause any problems. One thing I changed was to increase the amount of spells that can be stored in your player profile from 400 to 480 since SoF now has a 60 page spell book as apposed to the 50 page spell book in Titanium. Another thing I changed is that I found the player profile structure for SoF had the spellbook field off by 2 spells, which was causing the first 2 spells in your book to not show up after zoning, which made them unusable. That is now fixed and neither of those changes should be causing the problems you are seeing. I am running R646 on Storm Haven and it works just fine.

i'm running the R649 binaries i pulled today, everything else appears to work....
