Vehicle Animation Recording Plugin

I just made a free plugin that allows you to

  • Drive any vehicle
  • Record the exact movements
  • Replay the animation via script at any moment

I made this because I tried animating a car for a cutscene and realized it was impossible to accurately depict all the intricacies of vehicles in motion.


Vehicle Animation Recorder Plugin

Usage:

  1. Add vehicle to workspace
  2. Set Vehicle’s primary part to a chassis or root (main part of car)
  3. Test/play game
  4. Select vehicle model in explorer
  5. Sit in/on vehicle
  6. Press Record Vehicle from the plugins bar, output should say started recording
  7. Drive around!
  8. Once done, press Record Vehicle again to end recording, then press Export Playback
  9. In workspace, copy the generated folder
  10. End test, and paste the generated folder back into workspace
  11. Open the Play Vehicle script, and change “workspace.Car” to workspace.(your vehicle name)
  12. Now use “playback.Play(vehicle)” to call the animation at any point!

can this work on the client side?

Yes it should you can swap the playvehiclescript for a localscript and put the whole folder in starterplayerscripts
