So for those of you that switched to the SoD client i have a little protip for you that will allow you to see at least ONE new SoD model without Hunter changing a thing (no database race changes no texture changes no new content etc) Granted it's not much but meh figured i'd mention it if anyone IS interested, and hell maybe i'll find more interesting things and put those here to. Who knows.
Anyway, what you do:
1. locate your "qvic_chr.txt" and/or "tacvi_chr.txt" files in your EQ directory.
2. Find the line that reads "icy, icy_chr"
3. Change it to read "icy, icy"
4. Save the files(s)
5. Go to Qvic or Tacvi and find an Aneuk mob (the yellow skinned guys that float and have the chains with the skulls on the end on their back.)
6. Shit brix.
Pic related: it's what you'll see if you did it right.
I found this while messing around. When they released SoD they revamped the Aneuk model (among MANY other interesting new textures) In the case of the Aneuk it now has two mob files, icy_chr (GoD) and icy.eqg (SoD). They both use the same race number (395) so which one you see simply depends on which one is booted in the _chr file (i haven't tried booting both of them yet but i'm going to assume it blows up the internet so i wouldn't try it)
The Aneuk is the only one they revamped though, no idea why but it makes me sad
. But hey at least it's something new right? lol
Oh btw.
Changing this number for the Orc Illusion:
from a 0 to an 11 (i think it's 11. I'll double check) then redistributing the spellfile (and re-uploading it to the database to make sure everything is the same) will change the Orc illusion from the current one to this:
Course SoF/Titanium will still see the normal orc but...
Just saying ^_^
