How do I make CFrame changes overwrite animations and tools?

Asked by

I am decently new to CFrames and completely new at CFrame animation. I couldn't find any tutorials on how to do CFrame animations so I used the animation plugin to make an animation then just printed the .C1 of all the character joints for each frame and put them in a table. Then I just had a for loop set my characters joints to those when you click with a tool equipped. The animation works, but the problem is any animations that play while it is playing the CFrame animation play over it. So if the player jumps their arms flail and their feet pull pack. And because the player has a tool equipped their arm is extended and its CFrame doesn't change.

Here is the script (minus the cframes because question was over 10,000 characters and would not post)

01local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
02local db = true--debug variable
03local dw = 1
04if db then--if in debug mode make things pause for 5 times as long
05    dw = 5
06end
07local root = {}--table of cframes for RootJoint
08local lhip = {}--table of cframes for Left Hip
09local rhip = {}--table of cframes for Right Hip
10local lshoulder = {}--table of cframes for Left Shoulder
11local rshoulder = {}--table of cframes for Right Shoulder

14    tool.Name = "DJ Booth"
15    tool.GripPos = Vector3.new(0,1,0)
16    local suitcase = Instance.new("Part",tool)
17    suitcase.Name = "Handle"
18    suitcase.Size = Vector3.new(2,2,0.5)
19    suitcase.CanCollide = true
20    local mesh = Instance.new("SpecialMesh",suitcase)
21    mesh.MeshId = "rbxassetid://442477818"
22    mesh.TextureId = "rbxassetid://442477819"
23    mesh.Scale = Vector3.new(5,5,5)

So how would I temporarily disable the player's animations and make the player's hand not extend with the tool equipped? I know I could use a HopperBin but those are depreciated.

How do I make CFrame changes overwrite animations and tools?
