Left Halo because life

Sunday I'm gonna release my tags, before leaving Halo for a while because life. As such, I'm in a rush fixing the last details of the release. As for now I'm working on the last details of the gun rack from Halo Reach... which would be the guns themselves. I want it to work without any script, just with pure tags. Basically this is how I did it

1) Placed the markers on the model for each item I want to spawn (5 assault rifles, 2 shotguns, 2 pistols, 2 rocket launchers, 5 ammo packs and a health pack)
2) Set a creation effect for the scenery: once created, it spawns the weapons on the markers

As for working, it works. Still, there is a problem since weapons fall instead of standing nicely in their place (thanks, gravity!). Can anybody imagine a good solution for this, with or without OS?

I already released those, even the covenant ones and most of the Reach scenery with the SMT scenery tag pack. And altis also released his Halo Reach gun racks with markers for the sniper, AR, DMR, Pistol, RL, Spartan Laser and Health Packs. Rip them out if u need.

Post the link, please. I've decided to work on the scenery because I thought no one did it, but I'm glad I was wrong.
EDIT I think I've found the thread, but the files are not available anymore.

Mine was just scenery, the weapons for it were placed in Sapien, not somehow by tags. Spawning weapons by tags is not exactly a good idea, especially for multiplayer maps.

Can't you just set them to hover in mid air?

As for now, it's just enough for it to work in SP.

Is it not a checkbox in the sapien/tool window that allows it to float? I forgot.

They hover in Rat Race so it must be possible.
