Ok, folks I have successfully converted over a Portal Spell from Planescape Torment, I think it looks 100x's better then the D2 TownPortal spell (IMO) Now my portal spell from PT Portal has 20 or so Frames and the D2 one has only 15. Now what i am looking for is a tutorial from someone (who would be nice enough) that explains exactly how to examine the COF files for the Anim's per direction (if i'm correct there) and how to change the # of frames so that the animation will not give me an Assertion Error when I try and use the spell. Any Takers!? LOL Please mention what Programs you use to do this and the process you use. After taking with Baz on MS Messenger I found out that I was taking the long route on extracting Animations from the BAM files Big Thanks to Baz for showing me how to cut my work down signifigantly.

Check this thread here. Use a hex editor to examine and modify a COF file, there are no COF editors (yet). Remember that all values are hex!

So many mods, so little time!

I'm not sure I know what you mean? Are you suggesting that I made this public? If thats the question I haven't yet, only because it isn't finished, which is why I asked about the COF files and such, I am also having a bit of time trying to convert the graphics from PT color scheme to D2 color scheme all my convert creatures and items appear really Freakin' bright almost white. When I finish with it i'll be happy to send it over to you if you want.

Myhrginoc: Thanks for the link i'll check it out and post any specific questions to any problems I might run into.
