Adding Humanoid to NPC causing anims to not play

I’m trying to add a humanoid to my NPCs because i want to put some clothing on them. However, adding the humanoid causes animations to stop working. The animations work perfectly with an animator parented to an AnimationController. I’ve tried using LoadAnimation on the humanoid, on the animator parented to the humanoid, and changing the state of the humanoid. The only anchored part is the HumanoidRootPart but I’ve tried with it unanchored and got the same result and the anims played with it anchored without the humanoid so that shouldn’t be the problem.

maybe some screenshots? Animations should work with humanoids.

we need images and videos so we can solve your solution

I mean theres nothing to screenshot the models are just stiff. As if no animations were playing.

This is the code

	local animator = newZ:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
	newZ:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(servZombModel:WaitForChild("Body").CFrame)
	local raiseTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(riseAnim) 
	raiseTrack:Play()
	print('it did play')

the code reaches the print. But the models dont move.

this is the model.

You may want to remove the animation controller if you are using a Humanoid.
