Head moves all limbs in an animation

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    Whenever I try to animate a rig, all the limbs move with the head when I rotate / move it. It’s bugging me since I can’t add animations to my game that requires animations to make the game feel more lively. This issue is happening in both Moon Animator and the Animation Editor

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!


sorry if the video is laggy :slight_smile:

  1. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I’ve tried reinstalling Roblox Studio and deleting the rig to replace it but it just won’t work. I have not found any solutions on the Developer Hub

After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

When I move the head in an animation plugin / default animation tool in Roblox Studio, the whole rig moves with it. I can personally not make animations like this. If anyone has a solution to this, please help! :+1:

Are you using one of Roblox’s pre-built rigs, or is this one you’ve made?
Also are you using the steps from this link? Animation Editor
Is the Head Anchored?

I just used the default rig and just edited the colours and added a hat. and no the head is not anchored

Hey, I have been having the same issue recently. Did you find a fix for this?

All I did to fix this issue was use a Rig via Rig Builder in the Avatar tab on the topbar and use accessories and attachments instead of welds and then animate it from there. Hope this helps!

Alright, thanks for the response.

Probably the accessories were anchored and holding the head in place.
