== Blocking | ==Blocking buffs== | ||
It is possible to block spells that don't have buff icons via your INI file. Make sure you are logged out completely before doing this. | |||
Open up your EQ folder and find a file named Yourname_server.ini you will come to a few lines that say something like | |||
[BlockedSpells] | |||
BlockedSpellID0=-1 | |||
BlockedSpellID1=-1 | |||
BlockedSpellID2=-1 | |||
BlockedSpellID3=-1 | |||
BlockedSpellID4=-1 | |||
BlockedSpellID5=-1 | |||
BlockedSpellID6=-1 | |||
= | BlockedSpellID7=-1 | ||
BlockedSpellID8=-1 | |||
BlockedSpellID9=-1 | |||
BlockedSpellID10=-1 | |||
Next you go to lucy.allakhazam.com, search for a spell... say Voice of Clairvoyance in the URL box you will see something like http://lucy.allakhazam.com/spell.html?id=5522&source=Live | |||
The spell id is 5522, you just place the 5522 part in the first slot where it says "-1" ex. BlockedSpellID0=5522 | |||
Voice of Clairvoyance will be put into your blocked buff list If you wish to take it off, just find the ID of the spell and put it back to -1 and the spell will be removed. | |||
If none of the BlockedSpellID have -1 in the place of an ID you can just added a line with BlockedSpellID<nextnumberinline>=xxxx | |||

The number of short duration buffs (song window) you may have on is 20 (to be increased in April 2014 to 30). If you go over 20 it overflows into your normal buff window until that fills up. | |||

== | == Cross server and cross game chat == | ||
Players of EverQuest, EverQuest II, Planetside, and Vanguard can chat with one another by using specific chat syntax. You can also send mail to fellow players in any SOE game. Listed below are instructions. | |||
(Note: you may use either the semi-colon ( or the left bracket ([) symbol as both work interchangeably, it's just up to your personal preference. However the slash (/) symbol will only work in EQ on the same server for tells or joining channels.) | |||
These instructions are for players in EverQuest only, please see instructions for other game titles as they will vary slightly. | |||
Sending Tells: (you may use [tell, ;tell, [t, or ;t) | |||
* To send a tell to a friend on another EQ server, type: [t servername.charname | |||
* To send a tell to a friend playing EQII, type: [t eq2.servername.charname | |||
* To send a tell to a friend playing Planetside, type: [t ps.servername.charname | |||
* To send a tell to a friend playing Vanguard, type: [t vgd.servername.charname | |||
Sending Mail: (uses the same syntax across games) | |||
* To send mail to someone on another EQ server, enter their name as: servername.charname | |||
* To send mail to a friend in EQII, enter their name as: eq2.servername.charname | |||
* To send mail to a friend in Planetside, enter their name as: ps.servername.charname | |||
* To send mail to a friend in Vanguard, enter their name as: vgd.servername.charname | |||
The EQ server names for these commands are as follows: | |||
* Antonius Bayle (Kane) - antonius | |||
* Bertoxxulous (Saryrn) - bertox | |||
* Bristlebane (The Tribunal) - bristle | |||
* Cazic Thule (Brell Serilis) - cazic | |||
* Drinal (Tarew Marr) - drinal | |||
* Erollisi Marr (The Nameless) - erollisi | |||
* Fennin Ro (Torvonnilous) - fenninro | |||
* Fippy Darkpaw - fippy | |||
* Firiona Vie (Roleplay Preferred) - firiona | |||
* Luclin (Stromm) - luclin | |||
* Povar (Quellious) - povar | |||
* The Rathe (Prexus) - rathe | |||
* Trakanon - trakanon | |||
* Tunare (The Seventh Hammer) - tunare | |||
* Vulak`Aerr - vulak | |||
* Xegony (Druzzil Ro) - xegony | |||
* Zek (PvP) - zek | |||
The EQII server names for these commands are as follows: | |||
* Antonia Bayle - antonia_bayle | |||
* Butcherblock - butcherblock | |||
* Crushbone - crushbone | |||
* Everfrost - everfrost | |||
* Freeport - freeport | |||
* Guk - guk | |||
* Nagafen - nagafen | |||
* Oasis - oasis | |||
* Permafrost - permafrost | |||
* Unrest - unrest | |||
* Valor (German) - valor | |||
* Splitpaw (English / EU) - splitpaw | |||
* Sebilis (Japanese) - sebilis | |||
* Storms (French) - storms | |||
== Autojoining chat channels == | |||
If you are not familiar with the /autojoin command here is a quick rundown on how it works: | |||
* /autojoin channel1, channel2, channel3, channel4:password, channel5, ...., channel10 | |||
* If you want to stop auto joining a certain channel just redo the command leaving that channel out; if you wish to stop autojoining all of the channels you have chosen then simply do the command and leave it blank after it: /autojoin | |||
* If a channel is full and you get sent to an overflow channel, then autojoin will stick the last channel into that spot and go on and try the overflow last (maybe it tries the original again then goes to overflow) but your /list will look like this if you get an overflow on say channel 3: | |||
: Channels: 1=channel1(23), 2=channel2(35), 3=channel10(52), 4=channel4(150), 5=channel5(100), 6=channel6(75), 7=channel7(15), 8=channel8(54), 9=channel9(15), 10=channel31(5) | |||
* Just typing /list will list the channels you are currently in along with what channel # they are | |||
* Typing /list channel1 or /list 1 will list all of the people in that channel. | |||
== Stick Figures == | |||
To make most players and NPCs appear as red stick figures, add the following to your eqclient.ini file (under [Defaults]): | |||
= | <code>StickFigures=1</code> | ||
That should help your frame rate among large numbers of figures. It doesn't seem to change the appearance of [[Drakkin]], however, for some reason. | |||
== Auto shutting off tribute when you log == | |||
Create the following socials: | |||
{| | |||
|[[File:Camp tribute off.png|This one camps you to character select after turning off all personal tribute.|left|frame]] | |||
|[[File:Camp desk tribute off.png|This one camps out out of the game totally (camp desktop) after turning off all personal tribute.|right|frame]] | |||
|} | |||
Use these hotkeys to log out of EQ and you will never leave your tribute running offline again. | |||
