I logged in for a few minutes to test out the new armor tinting and to find the new res spells - found them on a vendor near the top of the Temple of Marr:

[Tue Mar 19 11:11:39 2002] Logging to 'eqlog.txt' is now *ON*.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:47 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 23 platinum 2 gold 5 silver 9 copper for the Spell: Sound of Force'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:49 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 18 platinum 5 gold 1 silver 3 copper for the Spell: Immobilize'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:50 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 23 platinum 2 gold 5 silver 9 copper for the Spell: Word Divine'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:51 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 16 platinum 1 gold 3 silver 9 copper for the Spell: Expel Summoned'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:52 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 5 platinum 2 gold 7 silver 4 copper for the Spell: Reanimation'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:53 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 5 platinum 2 gold 7 silver 4 copper for the Spell: Reconstitute'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:54 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 5 platinum 2 gold 7 silver 4 copper for the Spell: Reparation'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:55 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 5 platinum 2 gold 7 silver 4 copper for the Spell: Reparation'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:11:56 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 5 platinum 2 gold 7 silver 4 copper for the Spell: Restoration'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:12:01 2002] Egasia Reenix tells you, 'That'll be 5 platinum 2 gold 7 silver 4 copper for the Spell: Reparation'.
[Tue Mar 19 11:12:12 2002] You give 5 platinum 2 gold 7 silver 4 copper to Egasia Reenix.

They managed to screw this up, too. There are two "Reparation" spells for sale, one for 49 pallys and one for level 61 paladins (yes, sixty one)... I bought the 49 one and scribed it, which was when its name changed to "Renewal". Odd.

And as for the new armor tinting fix? Well, it didn't work on my Geforce 2 Ti 64 MB... they must not have tested it on nVidia cards because of their low market share....

Anyway, I'm off to work.

You'll love what else they broke when the servers came up, they totally broke the low level experience, it was taking 2 kills to level from 1-2, 4-5 kills to get to lvl 3 etc. One of my friends made a newbie from lvl 1-17 in 10 minutes =)

I suspect that the low level Exp is one of the reasons for the quick patching they are doing right now.

I like the windows for damage. I wonder if it works for spell damage as well?

I believe in the existance of magic, not because I have seen proof of its existance, but because I refuse to live in a world where it does not exist.

I hate that new dmg window. They need to redo at as a persisant re-sizable window. It's just really annoying how it is now.

Yah, I just read the instructions on using those. I think I'll wait till I can drag and expand them like a normal window. Otherwise, it might be too much of a pain in the ass to get them placed just right.

The "Me getting hit" window doesnt tell you WHAT is hitting you. This is bad bad bad.

Dang, I wish I had been around earlier to get in on that exp bonus

But no the servers are still down, I can't wait to attempt to set up the damage window despite having to enter x,y coords I think being able to seperate the damage text from the normal stuff will be really handy.

I guess all the people without Velious miss out on that one

Update:

Well, it appears they got the tinting fix working almost completely; as evidenced by this shot:

Ok, let's say you take an Iksar monk, and put him in a leather tunic. You can still see the scales on his shoulders, but they look normal.

Now, put him in a blue wicker tunic (purple leather). Before now, the scales on his shoulders would turn purple as well. With the new armor tinting stuff (if you can use it), you can make it show the armor as purple, but keep the Iksar from looking like he's been dipped in grape CoolAid.

Let's say you take Pacifica and remove her red tinted breastplate and put on a normal untinted silver one. Her neck looks fine. But if you take off a normal one, and put her red tinted breastplate back on, everything under the red line on the pic above, turns red. Her skin looks like she got a hickey from the neck down.

That is the tinting thing, Bajah.

And how does one enable/disable it?

I note the VeliousTextureswithLuclin is still fried.

It's /dopropertinting ON. You have to zone for it to take effect.

Here's a pic of Pacifica before this went into effect - notice how her neck is tinted the same color as her armor.

It's a command because not everyone is having this problem, AND it might cause more problems, so you can turn it off.
