Rotating a cframe now working

[Spa_rkk]

For some reason the part im trying to rotate wont with cframe.angles
I printed out the 2 values and they are dif so idk anymore.

script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(rot.X,rot.Y,rot.Z)

[HugeCoolboy2007 (omega)]

what is rot?

[Spa_rkk]

rotation the x rotation y rotation and z roation

rot = script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame:Lerp(game.Workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame, 0.1).Rotation

[HugeCoolboy2007 (omega)]

I know what it stands for, I’m asking what the value of the variable is (what is it assigned to)?

[HugeCoolboy2007 (omega)]

To further understand what you’re doing, what’s your end goal, like, what are you trying to achieve?

[Spa_rkk]

to rotate a model with cframe angles smh

[HugeCoolboy2007 (omega)]

I can see that, are you trying to make the CFrames look at each other? I can’t really help if I don’t understand the intention since it doesn’t really make sense to me

[Spa_rkk]

Alr so it is to put the model to were the camera is, then Lerp it to give it some sway.
its a viewmodel

Have you tried just multiplying it by rot?

script.Parent.PrimaryPart.CFrame = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame * rot

[Spa_rkk]

no to rotate a cframe you need to use cframe angles

[HugeCoolboy2007 (omega)]

A CFrame includes the rotational values with it (that’s why you can do CFrame.Rotation). CFrame.Angles is only used if you strictly have an X, Y, and Z with no existing CFrame. But in this case, you have the rotation:

CFrame.Rotation

---

local identity = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame
local newCframe = CFrame.new(0, 20, 5) * identity.Rotation
print(newCframe) --> prints a cframe

CFrame.Angles returns a CFrame. CFrame.Rotation is already a CFrame

Where exactly is this script located in?

[Spa_rkk]

mmmm yes the perfect result of the mastermind known as HugeCoolboy2007

[HugeCoolboy2007 (omega)]

Alright, figure it out on your own

[Spa_rkk]

just did, cframe angles was not the problem it was the cframe value itself

I know that the problem was solved, but if someone in the future wants a part to sway near the camera, they can use this code. It goes in character starter scripts, as a local script. (I can only assume that sway means the part should orbit the camera a little bit, though I did not use a lerp to do so.) The swaying part is expected to be called MyPart. I hope I didn’t misinterpret something, sorry if I did.

local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local part = workspace.MyPart
local camCFrame = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame
local angle = 0
local swayDistance = 0.2

part.CanCollide = false
part.Size = Vector3.new(1,1,1)

RunService.Heartbeat:Connect(function()
	angle += 0.3
	camCFrame = workspace.CurrentCamera.CFrame
	
	-- sway in front of camera
	part.CFrame = CFrame.new(camCFrame:VectorToWorldSpace(Vector3.new(0,0,-5)))*camCFrame*CFrame.new(Vector3.new(math.sin(angle),0,math.cos(angle))*swayDistance)
	
	-- sway at camera (requires inward facing triangles, or a model where the backfaces cannot be seen.)
	--part.CFrame = camCFrame*CFrame.new(Vector3.new(math.sin(angle),0,math.cos(angle))*swayDistance)
end)
