Crooked Arms when animation is playing

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I am trying to play an animation for holding a tool with the torso following the camera, but whenever I test it in-game, The arm is crooked when I equip a tool and the arm does not rotate with the rest of the torso, it just stays the same.

When I position the camera at a certain angle, the animation plays normally.

Whenever I use the default holding animation, it works without a problem. I’ve tried to change the animation priority but that didn’t work

Make the weight higher in the script

#3

That didnt change anything, it still is crooked.

#4

What is the animation priority set to

#5

I’ve tried setting the priority to idle and core.

#6

Try setting it to action. Setting it to core or idle will make the default animations overlap your “arms” animation.

#7

Now the arms are moving back and forth, and it’s still crooked.

#8

It’s probably the weight, try messing around with that for awhile

#9

I changed it to many different numbers, but nothing changed when I tested it.

#10

This isn’t really a solution, but I fixed my problem by removing all animations for the right arm, and I had the follow camera do the animation by changing values of the right arm, and I also made the script edit the “RightElbow”. I do not know at all why my “UpperRightArm” would become crooked though.
