Well myself - I have stuck to (*) for a start as i prefer to type that instead of (Manual) everytime. As for magic, the names i used were close to Euromir for a reason, so the skills box reflects the skills, though i kept SummonElite as JIN sound so stupid.
Another thing to bear in mind - the MINFO.DAT needs to be right or as you may well find, some books, even if less than 12 letters cannot be read.
Remember only the skills as per 1.4 work not 1.45 or euromir or Korean etc, these were added afterwards and there is probably no code in the server itself for these to do any damange such as Fullmoon etc. You will find for example they display on screen but do no damage, much like 2.9 in that respect...
