following the solution here: R6 torso bending

i cloned the hips and moved the clones to humanoidrootpart but the legs stop moving :thinking:

code:

		local RightHip = Character.Torso["Right Hip"]:Clone()
		local LeftHip = Character.Torso["Left Hip"]:Clone()
		
		RightHip.Parent = Character.HumanoidRootPart
		RightHip.Part0 = Character.HumanoidRootPart
		
		LeftHip.Parent = Character.HumanoidRootPart
		LeftHip.Part0 = Character.HumanoidRootPart

Did you check to make sure that all the properties were cloned? In this situation you might want to check that the JointInstance | Roblox Creator Documentation is being set. Also, you should should parent the clone after setting its properties. This not only provides a performance improvement, but I’ve noticed in several post that this is usually the issue. So you would instead use:

local HRP = Character.HumanoidRootPart

local LeftHip = Character.Torso["Right Hip"]:Clone()
local RightHip = Character.Torso["Left Hip"]:Clone()
		
LeftHip.Part0 = HRP
RightHip.Part0 = HRP

LeftHip.Parent = HRP
RightHip.Parent = HRP

Another thing you should know, when referencing an object multiple times, in this case Character.HumanoidRootPart, you should store that object in a variable instead because it will improve performance.

I just typed that whole response and then looked at the source you provided. Oh well. In the solution to the referenced post it says:

In other words, you need to create a new animation for the legs and replace the default animation. You can check out these links for guidance
