grabbing object - KiraImmortal - 11-16-2013

does anyone can help me in how can i tell a "grab" typed object to appear in the right corner of the screen when i pick it up? i've seen this with the carry torch addon (Harvest Prologue, video here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xzo5Sjyi9DM) did this but when i looked at the entity i didn't understand how. if someone knows exactly how it is working please reply!

Entities set as grab-object may have offset location on the screen.
I'll give you a screenshot in a sec.

Check GrabUseOffset and put in GrabPositionOffset the values x, y, z.
Same for rotation below -optional-

Then just play with the values a little till it's good for you.
That's how I did it.

(If you still can't do it, copy the values from a working object in one of my mods)
