Posing Corpses - CarnivorousJelly - 02-09-2013

I can't seem to grasp how to pose a corpse so that it's sitting in a chair and not standing in front of it like that lady in the titanic standing on the front of the boat with her boyfriend (in case you don't get the reference: http://omgneal.files.wordpress.com/2012/04/titanic-11420.jpg ). Thanks for being so patient with my noobiness; here's a puppy and a kitty to show my gratitude.
Spoiler below!

Rotate it a bit over the chair, and maybe give it a little push with AddPropImpulse, AddPropForce

Makes sense, thanks! I'll give that a try and edit this post with the results

This has been discussed in the past, it's a tricky thing to do. Your best bet is definitely to influence it with script and block boxes when the map is loaded.

You can use block boxes to force it into a pose then disable them after a few seconds once it has settled. This will definitely take a lot of patience though.
