I read the other threads regarding object lock on, but it doesn't help me, I tried enabling zdetph, but it is still totally distorded (I am trying to lock an weapon to the screen) (I see all parts of object, even the parts that where supposed to be hidden)

thats cos the object is too close to the camera and getting faces culled that are inside the minimum range, try the following command

set camera range 0.0001,2000

that should allow you to see objects close to the camera without them getting culled, and limit your maximum visible range to 2000 units, cheers.

Are you first positioning the object before you lock it? You position it as you would normally, and if you lock it, it would appear on the screen always as it did when you first locked it, except it cannot be obscured by other objects. What I recommend is using an object limb to position the gun, so you don't have to lock it. This is just off the top of my head, so may not be correct. However, I hope it helps
