Would you mind sharing the code?

That's it.

// Create entity

entity_set_model(Entity, <Model>);
entity_set_origin(Entity, <Origin>);
entity_set_int(Entity, EV_INT_movetype, MOVETYPE_NOCLIP);
entity_set_int(Entity, EV_INT_rendermode, kRenderTransAdd);
entity_set_float(Entity, EV_FL_renderamt, 255.0);
entity_set_float(Entity, EV_FL_scale, 2.0);
entity_set_int(Entity, EV_INT_solid, SOLID_NOT);
entity_set_float(Entity, EV_FL_framerate, 18.0);
entity_set_float(Entity, EV_FL_nextthink, 0.016);

Hook hamsandwich think and then set EV_FL_frame

PHP Code:

public createEntity(id) {
    static Float:flOrigin[3]
    new ent;
    pev(id, pev_origin, flOrigin)
    ent = create_entity("rank_ent")
 
    entity_set_model(ent, T_SPRITE);
    entity_set_origin(ent, flOrigin);
    entity_set_int(ent, EV_INT_movetype, MOVETYPE_NOCLIP);
    entity_set_int(ent, EV_INT_rendermode, kRenderTransAdd);
    entity_set_float(ent, EV_FL_renderamt, 255.0);
    entity_set_float(ent, EV_FL_scale, 0.4);
    entity_set_int(ent, EV_INT_solid, SOLID_NOT);
    entity_set_float(ent, EV_FL_framerate, 18.0);
    entity_set_float(ent, EV_FL_nextthink, 0.016);
}
 
public ham_think(ent) {
    entity_set_float(ent, EV_FL_nextthink, get_gametime() + 0.1)
} 


I am able to spawn entity with my sprite and chosen scale, frame. Thanks!

Next, how do I set sprite to show like TE_PLAYERATTACHMENT (I mean above player's head and follow him)?

I'm afraid that's impossible. You can anyway do that by setting origin (by PreThink) but it will look laggy.

It's possible, check my CS Battle Royale plugin where I set Arrow Sprite above teammates head.

You've used TE_PLAYERATTACHMENT message

PHP Code:

        message_begin( MSG_ONE_UNRELIABLE, SVC_TEMPENTITY, _, iHost )
        write_byte( TE_PLAYERATTACHMENT );
        write_byte( iEnt );
        write_coord( 45 );
        write_short( g_iSprite ); 
        write_short( 20 );
        message_end( ); 


I need to scale sprite and select frame (which is not possbile with TE_PLAYERATTACHMENT).

Edit: Solved by setting entity's origin on ham_think

I gave you exactly what you asked for, it's just that you're unsure about what you're trying to do.
You can set a sprite frame by using pev_frame and change the scale by using pev_scale.
Add these two natives in my code and show the results instead of using Ham_Think.

And what is the entity id which you use as first param in set_pev for pev_scale/pev_frame ?

I don't really get what you're talking about, but, if you're talking about the first parameter on Ham_Think, then that's the fourth parameter in AddToFullPack.

He wants to set scale/frame of the sprite entity that is above player head, you said to use TE_PLAYERATTACHMENT and pev_scale/pev_frame and i'm asking how is it possible to use both together.
