This is a conversion of the Lucy spell database created/provided by

If you have any questions of comments feel free to post here
Here's some answers to a few questions I've been asked.
Q: I extracted this but it's not working. What did I do wrong?
A: When extracting the files, you need to make sure you preserve the stored folder names. What this translates to in WinZip is picking "Extract..." from the "Actions" menu and checking the "Use Folder Names" box. You need to type in the name of your Everquest\Storyline folder also; for me, that would be "c:\program files\everquest\storyline".
If you are using some other zip program I don't know what to tell you other than make sure you preserve the stored folder names. When you have extracted things correctly, you should see the following items in your Everquest/Storyline folder:
- a file named storyFoofySpells.txt
- a folder named foofy
- a TON of files in the foofy folder named things like abc fxq bbq etc
If you are still having trouble, try using the Windows "Search" or "Find" command to look for a file on your hard drive called "storyGrobb.txt"; this is one of the story files that is part of EQ, FoofySpells needs to be extracted into this folder. When installed correctly, you will see a file "storyFoofySpells.txt" and a folder "foofy" in the same folder with "storyGrobb.txt".
Q: Why don't your New & Changed indexes match up with the things Lucy says are "new" and "changed"?
A: Lucy calls a spell changed if even one field in the spell data changes. Things like "spell icon" or "unknown180" changing is enough to flag it changed. FoofySpells only reports a change for a field that is displayed by FoofySpells. Since it doesn't show things like "spellicon" or "unknown176", changes to those fields in the spell data aren't counted as changes in FoofySpells.
Q: This unzips slow.
A: FoofySpells has around 30,000 tiny little files. If you have anti-virus running, they tend to scan every file as it gets created so you'll definitely run into some slowing down. Could disable virus scanners while you unzip, but that's entirely your choice.
There is also the possibility you are low on disk space, but most people have giant h/d so probably not. Regardless, even though the zip is only ~10MB, it expands to enormous proportion because of something called "cluster size". if you have the default formatting for your h/d, your cluster size is 4k. with 30,000 files, this means it expands to around 120MB. it's up to you to decide if this is a problem or not.
enjoy!
