I’m making a sword animation, and I put a motor6D inside the right arm of the dummy, and then connected to the right arm and the handle.
After I animated the sword and exported to roblox and I put it in my tool, it doesn’t work as I expected.
Issue: robloxapp-20200518-1942492
How it should be: robloxapp-20200518-1944471
I tried a script that makes a motor6D that connects the handle to the rightarm, but still didn’t work.
But the tool has also an animation.
the tool itself?!
(30 characters)
I animated the tool together with the arms, but just the arms animation play and the tool doesn’t.
you cant load a animation on a inanimate object, as i said earlier: use clonetroopers tool grip editor plugin, that is the fix
That isn’t the fix, take yourself down a few levels lol.
He’s trying to apply an animation transform to the RightGrip of a Tool.
The problem is that the the tool’s RightGrip is always a Weld rather than a Motor6D, so no animation transform can be applied.
I did Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.Idle)
Also, this is how it went after I used the plugin:
Not like the video
but couldnt he use your plugin to move the tools grip upwards, making the character hold the swords handle?
edit: edit the rotation of the handle for it to be like in the video
No, he’s trying to use Roblox’s animation system to animate the grip, he doesn’t want to use the Tool’s Grip property, which forces the RightGrip to be a Weld instead of a Motor6D.
Yeah, but the sword is literally sticked to the hand bottom.
I wan’t to know how to get the animation to work in the tool also, so I can make better stuff in the future.
oh sorry for misunderstand

Here’s a script that you can use to make the grip animated.
Put it inside of the Tool and see if it works out.
local tool = script.Parent
local handle = tool.Handle
local function onEquipped()
local character = tool.Parent
local humanoid = character and character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
if not humanoid then
return
end
local rigType = humanoid.RigType
local targetLimb
if rigType.Name == "R15" then
targetLimb = "RightHand"
else
targetLimb = "Right Arm"
end
local limb = character:FindFirstChild(targetLimb)
local rightGrip = limb and limb:WaitForChild("RightGrip", 2)
if not rightGrip then
return
end
local newGrip = Instance.new("Motor6D")
newGrip.Name = "RightGrip"
newGrip.Part0 = limb
newGrip.Part1 = handle
newGrip.C0 = rightGrip.C0
newGrip.C1 = rightGrip.C1
newGrip.Parent = handle
rightGrip:Destroy()
end
local function onUnequipped()
if handle:FindFirstChild("RightGrip") then
handle.RightGrip:Destroy()
end
end
tool.Equipped:Connect(onEquipped)
tool.Unequipped:Connect(onUnequipped)
It should be a regular Script to work correctly.
What I think is, feel like the animation doesn’t play because you need to replace the toolgrip weld with a motor6d, if it still doesn’t work after, you might have to try inserting the handle of the tool inside a model, inside the player.
Could be wrong but don’t think you can animate parts that are parented under a tool object, must be parented under a part or model object with motor6d.
The animation in the tool is now playing, but the position of the sword is not in the way I want, like the animation.
That’s weird. How did you attach the sword when you added a Motor6D joint to animate it? Did you use the same Part0/Part1 and C0/C1 values?
I made the part0 the right arm and part1 the handle.
Also what is that “C0/C1”
Try deleting these lines from the script I gave you.
newGrip.C0 = rightGrip.C0
newGrip.C1 = rightGrip.C1
It almost fixed, but the tool is going to the right, instead of staying in the right place.
I tested with other tools, they all go to the right a bit.
