I'd have to take a look at the options available, but what I liked about the override for the spell effect removal was that I could customize it. If I wanted a certain spell to retain its original appearance I just had to delete the effect out of the folder.

This was all great and wonderful, because I got rid of the 'buffball' problem while keeping some spells how I wanted them.

An example, I like the effect on ghostly visage, I think the ghost NPCs will look much less scary without the added effects.

lol one day a year might be acceptable but not everyday and for those of us that like to drink and play lightbulb looking chars arn't the best thing to look at it also makes Rping a bit weird.

"Hello, is anyone in that ball of light? What do you look like?" Or

In Dasarian news today a Horc married a elf because the Horc could never be seen in the mass balls of light it walked around in. Edited; Bah! that bit was originally far too rude to post.

There is a way to set the item appearance changer into the menu itself. I wouldnt mind seeing this being implemented, seeing as it kicks arse.

Yeah, it comes that way by default. We actually removed it because we wanted it to be an in-character thing.

The Item Appearance changer is definitely in, we'll continue add looks or add other features as it becomes possible.

Well, I'm very disappointed by the decision to disable overrides, myself... that said,

If any chair system is to be implemented, then use Heed's ActionSit. There is really no respectable alternative.

Also the extended color palette on char creation.

Additionally, if we could put back in the UI features of Counterspell and Close Door that'd be rad. I don't have a link to any such downloads but I can tell you which parts of contextmenu.xml to edit to re-enable them if it's a positive.

Please, please, please. I miss counterspell as an arcanist. It was one of the best ways to deal with enemy spellcasters that you didn't want to alpha strike.
