What's the quickest and easiest ways to edit spells?

[Lugh1000]

I don't suppose someone has made a slightly easier editor, interface, or something along those lines, or is it already fairly easy? I haven't tried myself but I want to try my hand at changing a lot of the spells' values and adding some new ones.

 

And I really mean to just do very simple changes. No script changes if I can avoid them, just take preexisting spells and tweak them a little. Add extra effects or enhance damage/change damage type for example, nothing more than that. I imagine making the Lightning Storm beam twice as large and red could take some doing compared to what I'm envisioning.

 

Thanks.

It's easy. Just look at the "create a new disease" tutorial in my sig. Edited June 8, 2012 by steve40

Thanks! That looks great. If I have any questions on it I suppose I'll just return later.

 

EDIT: Actually there is one thing, how do I then take that spell that I've made following your tutorial but instead of attaching it to a rat I make a new spell book with it and place it at a merchant/chest of my choosing? I need to learn it somehow.

Make a new book -> http://www.creationkit.com/Book

 

Then, in the next photo:

on the left side there is an option that says something like "teaches: Skill Spell"

check spell and then pick your spell from the list.

 

all done!

How do I give 100% chance of stagger to a spell? Edited December 23, 2012 by Lugh1000
