How do I get the current position of a bone in a skinned mesh animation

Is it possible for me to get the actual position of a bone when an animation is playing on a skinned mesh?
You can see in the video that the bones are staying stationary despite the animation playing

Hey there,
not sure if you still need this which is unlikely, but if you’re trying to code it you can use the TransformedWorldCFrame (TransformedWorldCFrame.Position) property.

Ah don’t worry. Roblox released an update recently so that the bones of a skinned mesh now follow the animation. But yeah TransformedWorldCFrame would have been the solution before that update.
