How to summon a new creature?

[MrSly]

This modding stuff is FUN, but there's SO MUCH to learn!!!

 

I'm making a new spell to summon a lich I modified. Modifying the lich was the easy part, but I can't figure out how to summon him now. I went through all the spell options I could think of, but all I could find is that I seem to need to make an effect. No clue how to do that, or if that's the way to go.

 

 

Anyone with information on how to accomplish this?

This is one tutorial I use for my new summoned creatures. it's pretty easy and works very well.

Here is another simple tutorial at the CS Wiki. It works fine as well:

Now I can summon the Lich! Works great!

 

Now, I just want him to fly, not walk on the ground at all. I checked the "fly" checkbox, and unchecked everything else, but he still walks. Afterall, he's a Lich, he's done a LOT of work to become so, and the need to WALK is below him! Any ideas how to keep him in the air?

Thats some pretty heavy scripting there i think... um those boxes you check just state what kind of movement it CAN do, not that it does for sure. Like the imp for example CAN fly and does.
