After digging thru the magic.conf file in eA, I've yet to find an example of how to add a sound fx to a spell.
I'm going to be digging into this over the weekend and figured I might as well as about it.
Since Davis and I seem to be working on some sound fx it would be nice to find a way to test and implement these.

"audio" parameter of <effect> tag in client effects.xml.

The server sends the client the effect id, just add a sound file to the effect.

thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

i can record, generate some effects for magic, if needed. i'm assuming ogg vorbis?

Yes. We only release ogg.

Found the effects.xml
Found the line(s) for the lighting fx's.
even had an example of a FX triggering an audio file and particle effect the same way:
seems pretty simple. I edited that in. copied the lighting1.ogg to the sfx dir. Tried it but doesn't work.

Is there something else I would have to do to get this to work?

I'll try adding fx for other things and see if it's just this particular spell.
