How to play an animation in a model without a humanoid

I’m trying to animate a model and I’ve come across a problem. I can’t use my traditional method of playing animations on a model without an humanoid.
Here’s how I normally do it:

NPC:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):LoadAnimation(NPC.Animation):Play()

My question is, what do I reference to load the animation if the model has no humanoid?

It is possible. You’ll need to learn about Motor6Ds, CFrames, and Moon animator. While it may look hard, which it is, it is completely possible.

I have tried using Motor6D and CFrames but it looks choppy and stiff

Depends how complex the animation has to be and your animating skills.

you could use tweening ( TweenService ) to make animations :wink:

this should work perfectly, cause its kind of the same thing as the roblox animation editor.

if this doesnt help, sorry but i tried!
