So I am making an animation for my game, and im making it activate once i say a message as a test, but every time I try to do it, it doesnt work, and it just shows this.
I don’t know if this is an update or anything, but, im still trying to figure it out.
this is the script
You need to run :Play() on the animator object, not the animation object.
Create the animator, then run :LoadAnimation on it, passing the animation object as the parameter. Then run :Play() on the animator
I don’t know how to make an animator though, I’m a little new to scripting.
You can insert it like any other object in the game! Right click somewhere, then insert object, then animator
This is my explorer, dont know if anythings wrong with it
But this is what it says in output
What line of code is causing the Argument 1 is missinng or nil error?
None it just says that, theres nothing else
What’s the blue text below it?
Can you please send over your current code?
Argument 1 is the animation you have
local LoadedAnimation = script.Parent.AnimationController.Animator:LoadAnimation(Animation)
LoadedAnimation:Play()
Nothing will happen, and theres no errors
Have you done script.Parent.Animation or set “Animation” to whatever variable you have for it?
I dont know what you mean by that
In my reply with the code, you can’t just put :LoadAnimation(Animation) as Animation doesn’t exist, it’s just a placeholder for you to put in your animation.
I put local Animation = script.Parent.Animation, I’m pretty sure it creates a variable for Animation
Just noticed something, you need to put the Animator object inside the Humanoid
Adjust your code to script.Parent.Humanoid.Animator
As @TaxFraudBruh said, put the animator object inside the humanoid. However, that error is likely because the controller hasn’t loaded yet, so try :WaitForChild()
Im confused, do I put the AnimationController into humanoid to?
No, only just the Animator and you need to update your script as I said before
