this i'll help me alot so thank you in advance

 

This:

Code:

<spell name="5 Second Energy" type="self" icon="skills/5hour32.png" >
<buff usetimer="1" time="5" allowstacking="0" icon="skills/5hour64.png" smallicon="skills/5hour32.png" bad="0" >
<primarybuff id="2" amount="8"/> <!-- Nimbleness -->
</buff>
</spell>

 

You didn't put a file extension on the smallicon argument. Change "skills/5hour32" to "skills/5hour32.png". And there's no closing tag for the spell.

Other than that, I can't think of why it wouldn't work.

 

<buff usetimer="1" time="5" allowstacking="0" icon="skills/5hour64.png" smallicon="skills/5hour32" bad="0" />

 

Nope.

<buff> is an opening tag, not a singleton. It's got the closing tag </buff> later on. Only tags that don't encompass other ones need a "/>" at the end.

 

I believe using this tool would help you find common errors like this:

oh yeah your right. =p

 

Yeah definitely use the mod validator, it'll flag errors like this one with "File not found 'blah'" which is really handy 'cause I've made exactly this error like a dozen times. (Also the using > when I want /> and vice versa ahhhhh)
