Hey guys, sorry if this is a repost and ill post some screenshots when I get home.
OK, remember back in WotLK when you could increase your AoE Effect Levels with a simple macro?
For Example
Code:
/console spelleffectlevel 125
However this was sadly removed at Cataclysm launch.
As it shows on WoWWiki it is a slash command that no longer exists in the game.
There is, fortunately, a way around this.
If you go to your WoW Folder
eg. C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft
and go to your WTF folder, there should be a file named Config.wtf
Open a new Notepad document and drag this into your Notepad.
Now at the top of this add this line:
Code:
SET spelleffectlevel "125"
(The number doesn't actually matter, as it will change when you input the command in-game)
Now log-in and type the original slash command
Code:
/console spelleffectlevel 125
You can change the number to whatever you want
eg.
Code:
/console spelleffectlevel 1000
etc. I found my FPS lagged ridiculously after 2.5k
This can also help to see ground AoE effects that you have trouble seeing, or you just want to make your AoE spells look cool.
This is a client-side effect just incase anyone was wondering.
Hope you have some fun with this.
EDIT: If you want to change things back to Default effect levels, I think the original effect level is:
Code:
/console spelleffectlevel 8
