Should be 5 seconds for default, perhaps...
in CConfuse::CConfuse(LPDIRECT3DDEVICE7 m_pd3dDevice):
SetDuration(5000);

Now duration is 100 milliseconds.
  1. void CSpellFx::SetDuration(const unsigned long ulaDuration) {
  2. ulDuration = ulaDuration;
  3.  
  4. if(ulDuration <= 0)
  5. ulDuration = 100;
  6.  
  7. fOneOnDuration = 1.f / (float)(ulDuration);
  8.  
  9. ulCurrentTime = 0;
  10. }
For work of spell level of magic should be:

Goblin — 3rd level.
Goblin Lord — 4th level.
Goblin King — 5th level.
Human Male — 4th level.
Human Female — 3th level.
Human Child (Shany) — 2th level.
Human Guard — 5th level.
Human Ylside — 7th level.
Human King (Lunshire) — 6th level.
Human Priest — 6th level.
Human High Priest — 7th level.
Felnor — 8th level.
Ghost — 8th level.
Ratman — 5th level.
Snake Woman — 7th level.
Troll — 2nd level.
Undead Zombie — 5th level.
Undead Mummy — 6th level.
Undead Lich — 9th level.
