Animation plays as if it were rotated?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#6

I currently have animation priority set to Action4, but there are a few empty keyframes

#7

empty keyframes can lead to roblox filling in the gaps on the specific parts that are missing keyframes with their base animations, but only if you have no closing-keyframe, attempt to fill them in by right clicking the main keyframe and then add keyframe here…

let me know if this is the issue if not I’ll think further

#8

I filled in all of the keyframe gaps, but it still doesn’t work.

I find it weird that the arms move completely normally, yet the knife doesn’t

#9

may i see the structure of your knife, are you animating it as a model using a primary part or just as a mesh connected to the arm with a single motor?

#10

Animated using handle
So I guess as a model with a primary part

#11

yeah it seems the problem happens directly when the dummy starts passing the knife from the right arm to the left arm

i will make a quick repro file and update you on what i find, give me a few…

Okay, ty

Don’t mind this

#13

yeah I can’t reproduce your issue with neither R6 nor r15, mine just works

i would ask you for your repro file if you have no important stuff inside of it but if this is a privacy risk to you then don’t mind that

show me the snippet of the code where you load the animation so we can add some more lines for debugging

#14 
local animator = script.Parent.Humanoid:FindFirstChild("Animator")

local rg = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Right Arm"):FindFirstChild("RightGrip")
motor = Instance.new("Motor6D")
motor.Parent = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")
motor.Part0 = script.Parent:FindFirstChild("Right Arm")
motor.Part1 = script.Parent.StarterKnife.Handle
motor.C0 = rg.C0
motor.C1= rg.C1
rg:Destroy()

local function animInstance(id)
	local anim = Instance.new("Animation")
	anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://".. id
	return anim
end

local testAnim = animator:LoadAnimation(animInstance(132533671746048))


while true do 
	testAnim:Play()
	testAnim.Ended:Wait()
end

This is the code I’m using to play the animation on the rig

Here is a new place file with the rig and animation

#16

ah that’s better, I was about to start checking for other playing animations, let me take a look

#17

oh, wait, you can’t access animations i think

#18

If needed, I can send a file with the keyframes so you can publish it yourself

#19

if the issue is not in the animation itself but in the setup of the rigs then any animations should do, I’ll try with a template I just needed your structure of the knife tool

ok after trying a few methods, problem most likely comes from the way you structure the tool with grips and stuff… personally I’ve structured it a bit differently and can’t seem to reproduce the issue either way https://gyazo.com/76326c4615dba5a19754e0b22c1cf063
give me 1 moment to check something

#21

aight I’ve further replicated your animation (poorly lol) to test it and yeah doesn’t seem to be happening to me… if you wanna take a look at the way I structure them are you able to adapt your animation to this method?

Ty, ill check it out

dont mind this

#23

aight, you would basically need to reanimate your handle to animate the ‘center’, the fix basically is relying solely on C0s and not using C1s or copying C0s/C1’s from other motors because they cause issues in rounding angles and stuff, if this is not enough of a fix let me know I can come up with something better to match your initial use case…

#24

Okay, thank you for the help!
