I’m having some issues with…
I have the beta feature & property enabled.
When playing with a StarterCharacter my motor6d’s don’t change to a AnimationConstraint.
But if I remove the StarterCharacter,
My normal roblox character does spawn in with the new behaviour?!
I was just searching for info about this, have emissive textures been confirmed as on the way?
i cant find option tho my beta is enabled and studio reloaded
Is all of this compatible with ControllerManager
Hi Folks, you can use the new UIDragDetectors (currently in Beta) to implement a slider that lowers the MaxTorque like the one in @Homeomorph’s video.
Here’s an example world, feel free to steal it. There was some trickiness in there other than just setting the MaxTorque. (See comments in the MaxTorqueScript) Thanks to @Homeomorph for sharing the secrets; and now we share them with you!
Here’s the world:

And here’s a video:
Yes, and in fact ControllerManager significantly improves the behavior.
For example simulated characters holding things may spin or slide with the legacy physics controller in Humanoid. With a ControllerManager, the spinning stops because we now properly compute friction with the ground.
When using the heavy run animation, it is too wobbly, and when i jump with the mage animation, i end up flopping over on to the ground. Is there any way to fix this?
To clarify what I said earlier:
If you want e.g. a ragdoll with muscles (i.e. AnimationConstraints) to stand up without any help, you need to accept a certain amount of jitter, depending on character proportions, overall number of links, and gravity. It seems like AnimationConstraints sort of greedily act on their own, rather than collectively figuring out the torques to apply such that all connected links together achieve the target pose.
If methods to “properly” fix this bring a large performance penalty, it may be reasonable to make the constraints incorporate a torque that just opposes gravity, since it’s generally mainly gravity that causes this instability.
Here’s a place containing some examples to demonstrate. See how that arm is jittering? (Note that you don’t see the jitter when you’re in the client view, since physics replication is at a low frequency.)

I still wait for physics step to be enabled for standard scripts
