Since this can be a factor in lag, what if the visual FX could be programmed to vanish after a round or so? The spll effects could remain, but the visual shells from Barkskin and Stoneskin could fade, as well as the cloudy haze from Premonition.

Thanks!

Oh i've seen it on other server (Island of Thain). Would be great to have it here, not only reduces lag but also makes char with such buff look better :-)

The visual effects can be controlled client side. I don't know exactly how to do this though.

If you want to control it client side you have to edit 2da file in one of the cep hak files.

Hrmm, no 2da editing I"m aware of. There's an override on the vault that does this. It wouldn't quite work here though becauise several spells are modified, and then there's all the custom spells. The override pack only has the scripts for the default bioware spells.

Override won't work here because this server uses CEP 2.2
You have to edit the file within CEP 2.2 for that.

Override will work only on mods which dont use CEP.

It's something that requires no override or modifying f 2da files. I'll search for the post and direct you to it for those that are interested
