Deleting spells altogether?

Editing the spells table won't work, in fact you don't even need the spells table at all to run a server. It is only used by third party programs like Muss' EQ Browser.

The only way to properly do it would be to remove any fear entries from the spell files, but then you would need to distribute those edited files to anybody on your server like Elysius mentioned.

Ha! I've been doing twice the work all along. I figured the spells table in the database was what the server went to, but I edited the spells_us anyways. Thanks for mentioning this. While we're talking about spells... What's the purpose of the spells_en.txt file?

Technically, wouldn't the player just get an error (as in, you can still scribe the spell, but the server won't let you memorize it) when they try to load that spell if they don't have the same spell file as the server? This is what I've experienced.

Never thought of that, you are probably right on.
