How can me as the player see and carry something for my game?

I saw a project recently called “The walk into the abandoned Castle” And when I played it I saw that you can see you as the player holding a flashlight. Does anyone know how to do that?

Thank you

Do you mean this post?

How do I get the Light Object

Hi @Jurassic_P_Ark ! “light” is just the name of the object, you can choose to call it light or sunshine, but in the end, is not more than a cone which can have a yellow colour. Answering your main question, is there a way to set the lightning of an object, I suggest you this post where people smarter than me talk about it. Look at this photo, it´s just a flashlight with a yellow “cone frustrum”. What can you do to change a colour of an object? You can set when light collides with the object,…

Thank you! That helped a lot, but in the screenshot I took when in “Play mode” you can see a character’s hand and and you can move around and still see it, I would like to do the same with the same/different object in a player’s hand. (Also sorry I’m not the best at explaining things.)

Best regards,

Ok, now I know what you mean.
You need to attach the camera to a character, or make a group and move the camera to the desired position.

Another option, if any character fits well to your project, you can use an arm from sketchfab and amake a group eith the camera.

In adittion, you can create a dunction of “walking” where when you press W you change the animation to walk and move the arm up and down.

Hope now this helps you better.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it! Also I’m really sorry to keep asking questions, but I did what you said to attach the camera to a character and it worked, but how can I make the character go wherever in the setting? For example, if I wanted the character to go into the kitchen and the character was in the living room how could I make the character go into the kitchen using WASD.

Thanks and sorry again,
