Hey I cant find a download for this edit:
nvm found it
Hey I get a bug
19:11:31.733 ReplicatedStorage.Modules.RaycastHitboxV4.Solvers.Bone:39: Expected , got âmoduleâ - Studio - Bone:39
with
return solverlocal module = {}
in bone, please help!
can you send me an example place file to further invstigate?
Am I able to use this module on the client for hit-detection?
Yes, thats exactly what this does.
Hit detect on client then fire to server for validation. Thats what Im doing in my current project
Is there a way to only have the debug visualizer visible on the client?
Hi all,
This resource is no longer supported and has been superseded by ShapecastHitbox. While the library is still usable today, it contains some bugs and performance issues that the original team is no longer addressing. You are welcome to fork the project and publish improvements if you wish.
Thank you all for supporting this project for the last 6 years, you all are awesome!

hi there, ive been using this for a while⌠is there any way to make the hitbox go with the object when you play an animation on the client? so far ive only found out that the hitbox is correct if you play it serversided cuz that prevents hacking the hitboxes if im not wrongâŚ
i would love help because that will def make my experience better
You can play the animation both on client and server.
yes but once i play it on the client the hitbox isnt correct with the tools thats the problem im facing
is there a way to make dismemberment with this?

This is a hitbox library, is not related to dismemberment in any way. You can make dismemberment with this module, but it wonât help you do the actual dismemberment itself.
Ie. Detect parts with this library, then make your own interface to decouple the parts from the rig once you do.

Is there a way you can detect exactly which attachment hit in the OnHit event?
1 Like
As far as I remember, there isnât a way. You can go inside the Hitboxcaster and edit it to make it return the attachment on this line:
Change this
ActiveHitboxes[i].OnHit:Fire(part, humanoid, raycastResult, point.Group)
with:
ActiveHitboxes[i].OnHit:Fire(part, humanoid, raycastResult, point.Group, point.Instances[1])
The last parameter will return the attachment.
I know it is no longer being supported but I decided I might as well try my luck, I am making a combat system using this and it works most of the time but sometimes it doesnât detect.
I have tried a lot of different things to fix it but I am kind of stuck any help would be greatly appreciated. I do the raycast and detection on the client but then I do the damage on the server. It works fine maybe 85% of the time but sometimes it just doesnât detect the victim

I know raycasthitbox does have a sort of inaccuracy issue. Only solution I have for you is to increase the amount of attachments. Also ensure you turn on the debug mode on to see if the rays are actually hitting them.
I know this answer is not what youâre looking for, but ShapecastHitbox also has a raycast option, and requires very minor API changes to migrate to. Accuracy should be improved there.
certainly just detect the body part name and then detect the motor 6d matching it⌠then you just destroy that motor6d and there you go the body part falls of
This is my problem with the Raycast V4:
- NPCs that are already exist in the workspace with the script inside it that handles and create the raycasthitbox.new(Tool) things, works normally
- due to the huge amount of NPC which need to be spawned, I have written an only script for all NPCs also apply the raycasthitbox.new(Tool)
- I will explain using the picture
- Every NPCs spawned has this bug
- without the raycast, spawned NPCs canât perform more actions
