Viewmodels right arm rotates whole body when trying to rotate it in animation editor?

[Salt_Tom (salt)]

Any help is appreciated!

My Roblox view model i have created using the rig builder has a weird outcome when i try and animated its right arm in specific. it rotates its whole body except the actual arm itself?

I have looked online and i haven’t found anyone who has experienced this. I’ve checked and its primary part is defiantly the root part so that’s not the problem, any help is appreciated!

Hi Tom, I am actively dealing with this issue but as soon as I figure it out, I will post here the solution that worked for me. I have noticed that you are using an animation controller, well so am I. But I believe the purpose or one purpose of the HumanoidRootPart in a humanoid is to have a frame of reference for everything else to move around. Possibly forming one for the animation controller might be the solution.

(ANIMATION EDITOR) How to rotate the entire body using one part as a pivot?

Hello developers! Im trying to remaster some animations, and for do it, i need to fix this issue… I want to rotate the entire body, but using only one of the parts as a pivot (maybe i can explain it better with images than with words) This is how i DON’T want to rotate in the animation editor: [RobloxScreenShot20200827_003925085] This is how i want to do it: [RobloxScreenShot20200827_004028947] As you can see, the entire body rotates (except the Left Leg, that part would be the pivot) …

For Tom, or others alike.

Here you go, this video will hopefully be the solution to your problem. I would be surprised if it doesnt.

Always set your models primary part to the part that wont move, typically the root part.
Always unanchor everything.
