I am very new to the world of character animation and I want to learn how to use it. Since I am not very good at CFrame myself I want to ask:
1) What's Vector3.lookVector?
2) Let's say that I would like a tool to rotate if you moved the camera up in first person. Which value, from the broad list of values mouse.Hit gives you, would I use?
3) What if I want to rotate my arm left and right, instead of only up and down? CurrentAngle appears to only be a number value although the wiki page says it's a CFrame (which would make much more sense)

I despise animations, this is to the best of my knowledge:

1) I don't believe there *is* a Vector3.lookVector. Only CFrame.lookVector which returns the direction that the CFrame is facing.
2) x, y, z = mouse.Hit:toEulerAnglesXYZ() and then use x I believe.
3) I think you have to set the Shoulder's C1 or C0. Annoying? Yes. But it's the only way I believe.

I disagree. I think 100 posts is quite a lot.

In 100 seconds you could script a command language...
In 100 minutes you could make that command language evolvable and attach it to an AI...
In 100 hours you could evolve the AI to pwn all human players...
And in 100 posts you could brag about the AI enough to get the community to despise you.


BTW, have you heard of my evolving AI? I'm trying to get it efficient enough to make large ecosystems.
