How to change the OriginOrientation of a model within a script?

Hi there, I am trying to figure out how to change the OriginOrientation of a model with a script but can’t figure out how if you know how please leave some information on how in the replies, Thanks!

For future reference, please do a bit more research before posting/asking for help. Most of these issues are already resolved in another thread or in the API library.

You can use Model:PivotTo(), for example:

local Model_Pivot = Model:GetPivot()
Model:PivotTo(Mode_Pivot * CFrame.new(0,0,0) * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90),0))

This will also work:

Model:PivotTo(Model:GetPivot() * CFrame.new(0,0,0) * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(90),0))

Im sorry for the lack of research I just saw different asnwers online so I didn’t know which it is

This means that :PivotTo() now provides a uniform API for moving both parts and models around. :PivotTo() also has a few advantages over the other APIs that could be used for this before such as :MoveTo() and SetPrimaryPartCFrame() :

• :PivotTo() operates on the pivot, which can be configured to whatever reference point on the object is the most useful, such as the hinge location on a door.
• :PivotTo() does not require you setting a PrimaryPart .
• :PivotTo() uses the BulkMoveTo infrastructure and some other internal optimizations, so it has better performance than the other methods.
• :PivotTo() preserves part and model offsets , so you will not experience floating point drift when using it to repeatedly move an object!

You set model.WorldPivot = ...some CFrame in the script.
