How could I make your arms and head follow your mouse up and down?

[antolol7350]

Yo i am confused too because i am trying to make the same thing but i don’t understand what i nead to do in your script to make it work! here what i am in your script!:

[antolol7350]

also here is the error

[antolol7350]

nvm i found out how to do it lol

Hi sorry to bump this topic but I’m using this code for the arms:

        local rightX, rightY, rightZ = char.Torso["Right Shoulder"].C0:ToEulerAnglesYXZ()
		char.Torso["Right Shoulder"].C0 = (char.Torso["Right Shoulder"].C0 * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, -rightZ)) * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.asin((mouse.Hit.p - mouse.Origin.p).unit.y))

		local leftX, leftY, leftZ = char.Torso["Left Shoulder"].C0:ToEulerAnglesYXZ()
		char.Torso["Left Shoulder"].C0 = (char.Torso["Left Shoulder"].C0 * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, -leftZ)) * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.asin((-mouse.Hit.p - -mouse.Origin.p).unit.y))

But when I go into first person the arms start moving closer/away from the camera:

Does anyone know how I can fix this?

Edit:
I also used this but it acts the same way:

        char.Torso["Right Shoulder"].C0 = CFrame.new(1,0.5,0) * CFrame.Angles(-math.asin((mouse.Origin.p - mouse.Hit.p).unit.y),1.55,0)
		char.Torso["Left Shoulder"].C0 = CFrame.new(-1,0.5,0) * CFrame.Angles(-math.asin((mouse.Origin.p - mouse.Hit.p).unit.y),-1.55,0)

Because your arms are rotating relative to themselves, not the camera. And since the camera rotates relative to itself, it doesn’t line up. You either have to use a view model, make the arms move relative to the camera, or move the camera relative to the arms.

I am having this problem too

but I dont how to fix and yes I am using Motor6D animations

How to animate Tool Parts (Guns, Knifes etc.)

Hello everybody! I’m Headstackk, I’ve been creating and making firearm weapons on Roblox for a while. I’ve also created the game Weaponry. In this post, I will briefly explain how to get started to animate a weapon on Roblox. I have already briefly explain how on this DevForum post, but I’d like to make a new post to clarify everything and explain it step by step. In most of the Roblox Shooter games (Excluding advanced shooter games such as Phantom Forces), I observed that they usually make a …

I’m pretty sure he’s looking for an R6 version of this, this script is meant for R15 rigs.

Hello, sorry for the bump, but how did you do it? I don’t know how to use “self” and what i found in devforum doesn’t explain why studio says "unknown global ’ self ’ " i really like this arm pointing to camera (or mouse) effect

[Ix1x0x2]

You can do

local Char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character;

and replace every

self.char

with

Char

I made some changes so the arms point their bottom face instead of front but it worked, thanks!!

[antolol7350]

i just changed self.Right arm to this :

local run = game:GetService("RunService")

local equipped = false

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

local char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character

repeat wait() until player.Character


print(player.Name)

local mouse = game.Players.LocalPlayer:GetMouse()

local Torso = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.Torso

local RightArm = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character['Right Arm']


script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()



run.RenderStepped:Connect(function()

equipped = true

local rightX, rightY, rightZ = Torso["Right Shoulder"].C0:ToEulerAnglesYXZ()

Torso["Right Shoulder"].C0 = (Torso["Right Shoulder"].C0 * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, -rightZ)) * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.asin((mouse.Hit.p - mouse.Origin.p).unit.y))

local leftX, leftY, leftZ = Torso["Left Shoulder"].C0:ToEulerAnglesYXZ()

Torso["Left Shoulder"].C0 = (Torso["Left Shoulder"].C0 * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, -leftZ)) * CFrame.Angles(0, 0, math.asin((-mouse.Hit.p - -mouse.Origin.p).unit.y))

end)

end)

script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()

game.ReplicatedStorage.ConnectM6D:FireServer(WeaponTool.BodyAttach)

RightArm.ToolGrip.Part0 = RightArm

RightArm.ToolGrip.Part1 = WeaponTool.BodyAttach

end)

WeaponTool.Unequipped:Connect(function()


game.ReplicatedStorage.DisconnectM6D:FireServer()

end)

Good idea, I isolated the mouse following parts of the scripts you’re referring to, specifically the pistol’s scripts from the following game.

Sorry to bump, though is how would I make something like this:
https://gyazo.com/b5426382b41cafad080c5c817c0a5f83

[Lord_BradyRocks]

Since you did not say what in the vid you wanted to make, I will assume you meant the effect of the sword, it is just a simple trail with two attachments and a decal…

Then as he is running it makes the trail.

[noahrepublic (Noah)]

The arms movement, how you can move so freely

[Lord_BradyRocks]

It just looks like a custom animation…

[Lord_BradyRocks]

It seems when I run the mouse.rbxl , the players right shoulder has a gap from the body…

[noahrepublic (Noah)]

It isn’t moving arms would just fall, and the user can control them there.

[thebrickplanetboy (zBrick20)]

I managed to cloned left shoulder and right shoulder welded and parented to the head and make the neck move up and down by the camera with RunService.RenderStepped also use RunService.Stepped to update the animation from the real joint to fake joint
Put this script in StarterCharacterScripts

--R6 Only
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local character = script.Parent

local torso = character:WaitForChild("Torso")
local head = character:WaitForChild("Head")

local leftShoulder = torso:WaitForChild("Left Shoulder")
local neck = torso:WaitForChild("Neck")

local rightShoulderCopy = Instance.new("Motor6D")
rightShoulderCopy.C0 = CFrame.new(1.5, -1, 0) * rightShoulder.C0.Rotation
rightShoulderCopy.C1 = CFrame.new(0, .5, 0) * rightShoulder.C1.Rotation
rightShoulderCopy.Part1 = rightShoulder.Part1
rightShoulderCopy.Name = "RightShoulderCopy"
rightShoulderCopy.Archivable = false
rightShoulderCopy.Part0 = head
rightShoulderCopy.Parent = head

local leftShoulderCopy = Instance.new("Motor6D")
leftShoulderCopy.C0 = CFrame.new(-1.5, -1, 0) * leftShoulder.C0.Rotation
leftShoulderCopy.C1 = CFrame.new(0, .5, 0) * leftShoulder.C1.Rotation
leftShoulderCopy.Part1 = leftShoulder.Part1
leftShoulderCopy.Name = "LeftShoulderCopy"
leftShoulderCopy.Archivable = false
leftShoulderCopy.Part0 = head
leftShoulderCopy.Parent = head

rightShoulder.Enabled = false
leftShoulder.Enabled = false

RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	neck.C0 = CFrame.new(0, 1.5, 0) * CFrame.Angles(math.asin((camera.Focus.Position - camera.CFrame.Position).Unit.Y), 0, 0)
	neck.C1 = CFrame.new()
end)

RunService.Stepped:Connect(function()
	rightShoulderCopy.Transform = rightShoulder.Transform
	leftShoulderCopy.Transform = leftShoulder.Transform
end)

workspace:GetPropertyChangedSignal("CurrentCamera"):Connect(function()
	local _camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
	if _camera then
		camera = _camera
	end
end)

Hope this fixed for you

Solution To This Topic!!!

How would I make a players arm move depending on the y axis of the mouse? (R6)

So I have been looking for a solution to this for a year now, and I still don’t get how this is done. Some use trigonometry for this, which I barley understand. I’m also not the best with cFrame. I have found many topics similar to this but still will not conclude a full solution to this that is easy for me to comprehend. So anyways, as an example in text, the r6 arm would move up or down depending on the position of the mouse in the y axis. The higher it is, the more it would rotate up. The…
