Debuffs on self playing no VFX or SFX

[EminentEmily]

As of latest patch no VFX/SFX play when applying debuffs whatsoever; buffs still work as expected.

This is somewhat intended. By default it now uses the VFX that belongs with the icon. If you cast the doom icon on yourself it'll now use the doom VFX. However, some icons don't get any VFX. You can use the new custom VFX path setting to apply a VFX in that case.

For me, this new "Custom VFX Path" feature doesn't seem to do anything. No matter what I set it to, I see no VFX/SFX playing.

Are you getting an error log in /xllog? I've tried to make sure it prints errors when stuff goes wrong.

It's been spamming my /xllog with this error about 20 times a second
07:01:38.944 | ERR | Exception during raise of "Void <InvokeSafely>b__0()" System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at Moodles.Processors.CommonProcessor.Tick() in D:\a\Moodles\Moodles\Moodles\GameGuiProcessors\CommonProcessor.cs:line 133 at Dalamud.Utility.EventHandlerExtensions.HandleInvoke(Action act) in C:\goatsoft\companysecrets\dalamud\\Utility\EventHandlerExtensions.cs:line 124

I think this has to do with something else.... HOOOAAGGHHH. This is probably why it is breaking VFX, ill have a look at it when I'm home😭

Tentatively fixed in 1.0.0.34 lmk if it isnt

Hello! So it seems that custom VFX works great when it comes to playing the VFX/SFX for debuffs. It only seems to not be playing when there's no custom VFX path set for the Moodle. I activated Debug mode and checked the log, and I saw this line which might be relevant? > [12/2/2024 7:29:48 PM -08:00] Path for SHE is empty

[Glyceri]

HMMMM, if the path is empty itll take path that belongs with the icon, sometimes those are empty as well (some icons just don't get a VFX by default in the game :c ). I think ill add a case where if the default path is empty we use the old (moodle 1.0.0.29) vfx path as a backup later today.
