Placeables casting spells

Is there a way to make a placeable cast a spell? I've been assigning ActionCastFakeSpellAtObject and ActionCastSpellAtObject to a placeable, to no avail. The funny thing is that I get the sound of the spell being cast, but not the visual. Any idea on what's going on? The placeable is non-static.

    What's your script?

    This works fine for me:
    AssignCommand(oPlaceable, ActionCastSpellAtLocation(SPELL_FIREBALL, locTarget, METAMAGIC_ANY, TRUE, PROJECTILE_PATH_TYPE_BALLISTIC));

    Thanks, that worked! I did some tests and I noticed that the problem was the spell I was using: Magic Missile (I changed it to Fireball and it worked perfectly). That's weird to me. Is there a chance that only a few spells will work with placeables?

    Edit: nevermind, I just found the info I need in the Lexicon. I was trying to use another placeable as the target, and the function demands another creature or the PC as the target.
