  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I wonder what is the difference within a CFrame and a Vector3. I was messing around with pathfinding and I found out that I cant use CFrame, I have to use Vector3.new I wondered if there s a mathematical equation to convert CFrame and Vector3.new as the coordinate that I used were in CFrame.

There’s no such thing as a CFrame3, just a CFrame.

A Vector3 is a point in space. It is only a point in space. A CFrame is a point in space, along with a direction in which that point should be facing.

You can get the position of a CFrame with yourCFrame.Position

To simplify what SebastianAurum said, Vector3 is just a position, while CFrame is a position & orientation/direction.
