How to get the master ritual spell animation to work?

[allomerus]

Hello!

 

EDIT: Got it working on my own, thanks for your time still.

 

I'm rather new to Skyrim modding, and I was having a bit of fun trying to get a self-created master spell to work.

 

So far, everything does function correctly, except that instead of doing a cool ritual cast, my character insists on simply casting with his left hand, even thought the spell is flagged as « BothHands » and nearly all its visual effects are borrowed from the « summon Storm Thrall » spell.

 

If there's a thing to switch in all that chaotic CK for that animation to work, I'll be burned if I haven't tried everything to find it.

 

I know it's a bit vague for a help request, but I can't say I understand all of what I'm doing right now so...

 

Thanks for your help in advance!

If you want to add that annoying 3 second animation to your master spell, this might help https://www.creationkit.com/index.php?title=Magic_Effect

 

Quote: For spells with lengthy cast times and using two hands, using the keyword RitualSpellEffect is recommended: this keyword changes the cast animation to a more appropriate animation.

OK. I finally figured it out. Once you have all the animations set as well as Equip type: BothHands you MUST add a keyword called "RitualSpellEffect" in the keyword box (at the bottom left of the Magic Effect window)!!!!!! This is what was keeping my spell from doing the the master spell animation. I hope this helps. Edited October 22, 2018 by subnovaCE
