You can use Roblox AI function for basic-level animations. But if you truly want to learn how to do it, you have to do it yourself.

I highly suggest against using any form of AI for animation, and it really just takes practice. The video below is a great tutorial on walk cycles along with a few basics of animating. I might also suggest looking into animating in something like blender, which can help make the process much easier (like IK). The creator of the video has a few other videos on animation and character rigging which you could also check out.

Humans walk opposite arm to leg for balance… just saying

It can be good if someone is bad at animating and has no real budget, or to get a base animation to tweak / perfect

What I meant is that it’s generally not great for someone trying to learn animation.

Just watched the tutorial you gived to me thank you for the help but i have a question about it
is everything that he said also apply to roblox studio plugins like moon animator ect…?

Well, it’s a bit different with moon animator because you don’t have access to IK, and you’re using an R6 rig instead of one with multiple joints in each limb. However, a lot of the same principles still apply such as the different stages of the walk cycle, weight/center of mass, etc.
