R15 animation

R15 is an animation rig currently in beta, which has more joints, and is able to bend. The model is named after the amount of body parts it has (15 parts) instead of 6, like the current model. The model is available to the public for testing. As the description of the game says, all the current animations are temporary, and thus will most likely be changed in the future.

Lua ports

There are scripts that try to remake the original model, including the animations, joints, etc, though all of them are now are pointless as R15 is released for testing.

Reception

The animation received mixed reviews from users. Some users gave positive reception to the animation because of its limbs being able to bend. On the other hand, some testers gave negative reviews to the animation because the walking animation looks like "an angry 5-year-old stomping" and some of them think the cheering, laughing, and waving animations are over-exaggerated. It was also criticized for the joints being too visible, the swimming animation appearing to be a horizontal version of the walking animation, and some catalog items appearing to not work properly. Some users even believe it would be used by online daters.

How to get R15 in your game

R15

R15 seems to be already available for the public on ROBLOX. There is no exact date at which it was released, as the release was silent, with no news page to support it. To enable R15, go to the Develop tab, look at the set of tabs at the left, and click Games. There, configure the game you wish, and you will be brought to the "Configure Game" menu. In Basic settings, R6/R15 selections will be present.

Broken features

Currently R15 doesn't support packages. Some hats aren't offsetted correctly on the avatar. Not all gears work. ROBLOX is currently converting all of the packages, hats, and gears to work with R15.
