Destruction spell bug?

[dennis]

Trying to give Daggerfall another go... having quite a lot of fun with it so far. But I'm running into a problem I can't figure out...

Whenever I try to cast a destruction spell, say "shock" nothing really happens. My magicka does get depleted, but otherwise nothing. No animation or visible damage to enemies. Is this some kind of bug? Or am I asking a common question, lol? I did google it, and found one thread on a forum that asked the same question, but nothing on it really helped.

Any ideas?

Edit: I figured it out. It's silly. For some reasons entering cursor mode and activating an enemy doesn't do it, but pressing "activate center object" will.

Yay, my spellsword can finally live up to his name
