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

did you make any modifications to the scripts that could possibly break this?
(Honestly curious to how this happened too and want to help lol)

I ended up finding a fix actually, I don’t entirely know why it was doing it, but changing how it directed the welds on the server seemed to have fixed it.

Could you make a tutorial on how to make arms and the gun to rotate up and down to the player mouse

I am having an issue with my right hand:


As you can see my right hand is not properly being positioned.
I have been trying to fix this issue for so long but unable to do so.
Is there any fix for this?

I am trying to make a pickaxe animation, and the pickaxe has 2 parts, The Head and the Handle. I attach the handle with Motor6D to BodyAttach and the Head with a weld, and then all of that to the UpperBody. Now in the animation editor when i move the UpperBody, the whole pickaxe moves with it, which is what I want, but when i try to move the handle of the pickaxe, the Head doesn’t move with it. I tried welding and glue-ing the head and handle together but it just bugs and doesn’t wanna work. Can somebody help me?

Nevermind I fixed it, for some reason, when I deleted BodyAttach, and instead renamed the Handle of the Pickaxe to “BodyAttach” it worked

how do I fix this when I put the motor6d in the right arm?

Thank you!!, this is very helpful! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

That’s normal. You can’t fix that. When you start animating position it to the hand you want your player to use

Oh, I thought it was supposed to be facing horizontally where the dummy is looking towards and in the center of the front part of the arm

What body part do I use if I want to do this with R15 without it moving with the limbs?

UpperTorso moves the tool with it, and people say HumanoidRootPart isn’t the best.

Try to use lower torso, that should work.

i get an error message for “WeaponTool” and the motor6d isnt appearing

It keeps falling through the ground do i need a handle for the tool

Try and redo the tutorial to see if you missed anything.

im pretty sure the script is supposed to connect the torso and BodyAttach regardless of any other things i do
are there specific places im supposed to put the scripts other then the tool?

i also found a video version of this with a free model and even after setting up the model nothing changes

Look in the output window and show me it.

This clearly explains what the problem is, it’s trying to find toolgrip in torso, where it doesn’t exist.

thanks i finally got it to work

although it stops playing the idle animation to play one of the default animations
it also doesnt play the animation outside of studio
