Small Character Movement Sliding / Drifting

[The_PreRex (Rex)]

Small Characters appear to drift when moving.

All of the parts are massless, w/o collision, and the hipheight does not affect this issue.

Video:

The closest ive gotten to fixing it is changing the model scale to 1, but when I do this the model becomes massive. When I scale down the meshparts manually after setting model scale to 1 it, breaks all animations. The animation reziser plugin didnt fix this.

Player "skids" around at small character scale

So I read about increasing friction, and thought up a possible solution. (After reading the docs for a solid half hour) Basically just increasing friction and friction weight of the player by a bunch.

''Solution''

local descendants = Humanoid.Parent:GetDescendants() ---Gets descendants of the player's model. for index, descendant in pairs(descendants) do ---Goes through every descendent of the player model. if descendant:IsA("MeshPart") then -…

See if this helps you.

@Player "skids" around at small character scale

			local descendants = Humanoid.Parent:GetDescendants()
			---Gets descendants of the player's model.
			
			for index, descendant in pairs(descendants) do
			---Goes through every descendent of the player model.
				if descendant:IsA("MeshPart") then
					---Sets physProperties as the new physical properties.
					local physProperties = PhysicalProperties.new(.7, 10, .5, 100, 1)
					---Sets the physical properties as the physproperties for each MeshPart.
					descendant.CustomPhysicalProperties = physProperties
				end
			end

Applied it as a local script inside of the char’s humanoid, and i dont see much of a differance.

Alright, ive found a fix that seems to work. Here are my steps to fix:

• Duplicate the Sliding Model: Create 2 duplicates of the character model causing you issues. I will refer to these as “model 1” and “model 2”.

• Install the “Animation Resizer” Plugin: Link

• Find the “model 1”'s Scale:
  

• Make this Value in the “Animation Resizer” Plugin the “Scale” Value Of “model 1”:
  

• Right-Click on “model 2” and Click “Group As Model”:
  

• After the Last Step You Should Have Something Looking Like This:
  

• Right-Click “model 2” and click “Ungroup”. It Should Ungroup Into the Model its Parented to And The Model Its Parented To Has a Scale of 1.

• Next, Click Back On “model 1” and Find Its “AnimSaves”. Select Everything in there and click “Apply Scale” on the plugin. Ive also included the settings I had on the plugin:
  
  
  

• Move The Animations The Plugin Has Created To “model 2”'s “AnimSaves”, Open The Animation Editor And Load and Re-upload model 2’s animations to Roblox! Use “model 2” as your character model (It should have a Scale of 1) and it should work!
