Have you downloaded the EZ spells file? Look to the left under EZ server downloads

Are you using the Titanium spell file or the SoD spellfile? You should be using SoD spellfile if playing on Underfoot client. Easiest way to tell if you did the spellfile right, go to where you installed EQ (or the EZ Server folder), open up the spells_us.txt, and scroll down. Although they are HUUUUUUGE strings, each ability is one line. Last ability should read: 10039^Warriors Defense IX^PLAYER_1^^^^Your body becomes as hard as stone.^'s body becomes as hard as stone.^Your body returns to normal.^15^0^0^0^0^0^0^11^300^0^0^0^70^0^0^-47^0^-900^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^-1^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^2503^2119^-1^-1^-1^-1^1^1^1^1^-1^-1^-1^-1^100^100^100^100^100^100^100^100^100^100^100^100^0^1^0^0^10^114^169^10^168^10^0^10^10^10^10^10^6^0^98^-1^0^0^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^255^44^13^0^-1^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^100^0^161^0^0^-150^0^0^0^0^0^0^-1^0^^^^0^0^0^0^100^-150^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^^0^-150^100^-150^-99^7^65^0^0^0^-1^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^0^1^0^0^0^0^0^0^-1^0^0^0^1^0^0^1^1
If it does not, you have not extracted the spellfile correctly. -Hate

yes i figured that was what i was doing wrong so i deleted the folder installed again then just used the sod spell file im still seeing unknown db string when i look at the effects not the spell names those seem fine. so i deleted again and im reinstalling im not sure what to do next. since you just said that im out of ideas
i repeat i think im seeing the spells right its the effects (discription of the clicky spells on gear) that is showing up as unknown db string
everything else seems to be right

Have you restarted the game since updating file? You can't update the spellfile and keep playing.
Also, the spell effects seem ok to you because that's all you know. If they spell effect was set to make fire, but you saw ice...with 'Unknown DB' the ice seems correct but you have no knowledge of it being different.
Try opening the spellfile IN YOUR EVERQUEST DIRECTORY and scrolling to last line. If it doesn't have the giant string in my last post: please try extracting again.

This is going to sound demeaning, but I don't mean for it to be.
Are you opening the eqgame.exe in THAT folder?
