How to make NPC Models Load in Any Zone.

[ActionAlligator]

Thanks alot for this! Ok, so I have to find ALLLLLL the models/races in the whole game for them to load for me and place them in the global file? Will this cause any lag? And BTW, the link is dead :(

Actionalligator,
you can use my link here : http://eqemulator.net/forums/showthread.php?t=18085
If you load all the model in global, you need more and more ram for user to play eq, and i think it was more than 2 gigas...
Sony cut this model in zone for have less memory to use.

I will fix it the link soon, unfortunately Custom Chemical Services exceeded its monthly bandwidth transfer rate...

I tried testing this out. I could make it work for any single zone, but not globally. Does this work for 6.0 Perl /w Kunark db?

Has this ever actually worked? I couldn't get it to work with multiple versions of the EQ client.

Hmm kept on testing, only got models to load in individual zones, this is for the 6.0 client

I am not having any luck force-loading globally. I first created, loaded and tested a txt file for a single zone to ensure that the process was working for the model i intended to use. I then tested with the following txt files globally, each time restarting the client completely, but have had zero success.

global_chr.txt
global_chr1.txt
global_chr2.txt
global2_chr.txt
global2_chr2.txt
global3_chr.txt
global8_chr.txt
global19_amr.txt
global19_chr.txt
globalbaf_chr.txt
globalbaf_chr2.txt
globalhom_chr2.txt
gequip2.txt
gequip2_chr.txt
gequip2_chr2.txt
gequip6_chr.txt
gequip6_chr2.txt

I know some of these either have no corresponding s3d file and/or do not make sense, but i started grasping at straws. Now i'm about out of ideas for this one.
