Yeah, you would need to copy the spells_us.txt file from SoF into your server directory and replace the one from Titanium (maybe rename the titanium one first just to be safe). You don't need the spells_en.txt file in the server directory for anything. Another option would be to use the new feature that lets you load the spells file directly into your database. As far as I can tell, the Titanium and SoF spell files seem to line up very well, so there shouldn't be any expected issues by using the SoF file for Titanium users. Each client should work fine with their default spell file. I don't see a reason to wait to do this, but I would definitely keep an eye out for reports of issues with spells. If you want to be absolutely sure you won't have any issues with Titanium users, you can just open both the Titanium and SoF spell files and then scroll to the bottom of the Titanium file. Look at the last spell ID in the Titanium file and then find that same one in SoF. Then, just copy all spells after that ID from the SoF file into the Titanium one and then you should have 0 chance of having an issue on Titanium and everything should be functioning for SoF for the most part as well. You would only need to use that customized file on the server, and both clients should work properly with it.
