Can someone tell me what's wrong with this

local hi = CFrame.fromMatrix(self.Player.Instance.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position,self.Player.Instance.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.RightVector,Vector3.new(0,1,0).Unit)
			local hit,pos,surface,material = workspace:FindPartOnRayWithIgnoreList(Ray.new(self.Player.Instance.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.Position,hi.LookVector.Unit * self.SwordDistance or 7),{self.Player.Instance.Character})

I don’t understand why it doesn’t works.

What I am trying to do, is ray cast at front, by using CFrame.FromMatrix()
Ignoring the rotation basically,
I am trying to get the look vector without rotation on Y axis
But with CFrame.fromMatrix() it was possible, i forgot how

#2

Why don’t you just Raycast forward from the HumanoidRootPart, as it’s orientation never changes on that local axis, unless you are doing something weird?

Ray.new(Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position, Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame.LookVector * ExtendDistance)

I am editing the C0 of the joint to make it rotate for other stuff, I need to get like the shown in pic

#4

Exactly. You should be editing the C0 of the Motor6d connection to the Torso, not the HumanoidRootPart. The HumanoidRootPart should always stay level.
