Spellcast Update - 9/14/2010 Patch

Here is the resource's folder, been working on it all day, all spells and abilities now work, altho BST /pet commands i have not messed around with, so the new jug pet commands will not be supported in this patch. Thanks sephrin for all the help!

All new armor does not cause you to freeze anymore if you equip them.
All new spells/abilities you can "//" prefix them now.
I'm still working on the recast text so most will still say "unknown-ability/spell" etc. but this is a known issue and i will work on getting this done asap.
Also all new weapons do not cause you to freeze either.

Instructions:
Download Resources.zip and unzip.
Copy and Paste to windower>plugin folder.
Restart FFXI.

If FFXI is still on right now do the following to load the new resources.

//unload spellcast
//updateresources
wait until fully updated
//load spellcast

If any issues or problems please post in this thread and i will fix and upload a new version. Been working on this all day, i really hope it helps others.

Disclaimer: This has obviously only been tested by me thus far, so do not freak out if it doesn't work 100% for you right away, if it doesn't post here the issues and ALL details, and i will try to fix it asap!

Updated(9/14/10)6:02pm EST: Fixed an issue where wearing some AF3 or newer weapons would still cause spellcast to shutdown.

Huzzah! Great work ^^v

Downloaded, unzipped to plugins, unloaded SC, typed //updateresources (nothing happened), loaded SC --> new spells dont work. Looked into .xml, they are set to /songs? Is there something wrong on my end? I'm confused.

Yes I see it too. It seems lines 473-508 in the spells xml are set to /song, they need to read /magic for them to work. Seems like a typo after hours of work on Enygma's part ^^;

Lines 474-508 need revisions, some of them are still not correct ><

They are set correctly, ID-wise, but some of them read incorrectly in the mp cost, magic type, etc.

I'm also having a bit of a problem with SC recognizing the spells as a specific type of magic and changing gear sets. Only changes staff currently.

Yes, Enygma is redoing them and I'm revising them for errors. It's a work in progress! We'll get it working soon. ^^

Excellent work. Everything seems to be in order.

Thanks for all the nice PMs guys, remember to post here if any further issues!

So I can download the latest copy from the same link on top of this page?
Thx

Impressive work XD How many Spells/Abilities/Armour pieces was it in the end?

(Sidenote: If this explodes my PC like it did with mine, I'm going to eat you!)

Lol! Sorry fine print says Enygma isn't responsible for possible PC implosions. :p

haha win!

Nah, it should be fine on yours, its been working for everyone in my linkshell as well as myself and others that have downloaded it, if it doesn't work/run on yours it might just be something on your end(i.e. vista ew)

XD It looks like it's working fine for me atm, well.. it logged me in >_> more than it did for me yesterday XD

How did you end up getting everything in? Manual input?!

Thank you so much for going out of your way to do this. Much appreciated!

Thank ye, old friend.

Newer version up, all instances where spellcast would close with the new af3 and/or weapons has been addressed and fixed. Thanks for the support and enjoy!

Let me make this clear, without this update, your current spellcast will NOT work with anything that just came out.

In closing:

IF YOU USE SPELLCAST YOU NEED THIS.

I think I speak for many when i say THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!

np, i was annoyed wasnt' working for me, so when i fixed mine decided to share :P
