[@PlutoIsAway]

FIX: If your viewmodel is colliding with the player, add these lines of code on line 18 to make sure the viewmodel has cancollide set to off pastebin.com/b1xGkfpy

hey, i got quescion for u, could u make video about how to animate shooting and making so the shooting does damage?

[@randomfunnymomentguy]

used this to make a portal type game so i can make the portal gun appear and randomly i hear the portal radio theme as the outro. Perfect

[@zumbie411]

If you wanna make the arms look like your character add these lines ViewModel.BodyColors.LeftArmColor = Character:WaitForChild("Body Colors").LeftArmColor ViewModel.BodyColors.RightArmColor = Character:WaitForChild("Body Colors").RightArmColor print("ChangedColors") if Character:FindFirstChild("Shirt") then Character.Shirt:Clone().Parent = ViewModel print("AddedShirt") end

[@ghostlol-cw1xy]

do i just add it in the viewmodel script?

[@friendlyfriend9831]

do i add it at the end?

[@czctus]

you should use "FindFirstChildOfClass('Shirt')" instead of find first child.

Is there a way to make the viewmodels appear on certain tools? and also is there a way to animate them?

[@coolboy123e3]

yea there is but its pretty hard to do so i recommend you search of a step by step tutorial

[@historybitshort]

Yes, its pretty easy to make viewmodels appear on certain tools, but it is very hard to animate them. Use something like : local tool = script.parent local function animate() end tool.Equipped:Connect(animate)

[@thatoneguyyouforgotthenameof]

Incase the viewmodel doesn't move with the camera you might need to set a "primary part" for it.

[@frostysgamingclub9162]

what should the primary part be because i have that same problem

Turn of collisions i think 🤔

[@Cyronez]

The humanoid will mess with the properties of the parts in it, so removing it will make it work.

i had the same problem, u gotta turn of colligion in in the humanoidRootpart AND the arm/arms

If you can't move to the sides just add ViewModel.RightArm.CanColide = false ViewModel.LeftArm.CanColide = false Add this after lien 17 and replace RightArm and LeftArm with the actual names of your objects if you have questions just comment them fr

[@kinghotcoc0]

One of them is for just giving you a view model, the other is probably for learning how to make it from scratch. Maybe animations included too

[@Jesse_69420]

So for the view model in my game, different infected and survivors have their own unique view models. How can I modify the script so that the view model is based on what character you are currently playing as?

[@apenasgargorio]

various games has, my favourite example is Team Fortress 2 you could either use a Script so it could be based on the character you're currently morphed, or you could Model it individually, and depending on the character's weapons or items, it will show as it

Yes. The viewmodel is still a character it's just missing some joints, to play animations you would load the animation to the viewmodels animator/humanoid and play the animation as you normally would.

Also make sure to ONLY anchor the HumanoidRootPart. Everything in the viewmodel should be welded to the HumanoidRootPart
