Animation Doesnt play

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#21

Try checking in the game, not in the studio itself

#22

aight btw it still doesnt work on npc

#23

its animation isuse because ingame its still broken

#24

Try reuploading the animation or test this:

-- Made by Frosty

local character = script.Parent
local hum = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):WaitForChild("Animator")

-- checks for animation
local animation = script:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animation")
if not animation then
	warn("animation doesnt exit")
	return
end

-- plays da aniamtion
local anim = hum:LoadAnimation(animation)
anim.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action4

anim:Play()
if anim.IsPlaying then
print("Animation is playing")
end

-- checks for startup
local startupSound = script:FindFirstChild("Startup")
if startupSound and startupSound:IsA("Sound") then
	startupSound:Play()
else
	warn("startup doesnt exist")
end
#25

Try this script, I made a delay for the animation to load.

-- Made by Frosty

local character = script.Parent
local hum = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):WaitForChild("Animator")

-- checks for animation
local animation = script:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animation")
if not animation then
	warn("animation doesnt exit")
	return
end

-- plays da aniamtion
local anim = hum:LoadAnimation(animation)
anim.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action4

task.wait(0.25)

anim:Play()
if anim.IsPlaying then
print("Animation is playing")
end

-- checks for startup
local startupSound = script:FindFirstChild("Startup")
if startupSound and startupSound:IsA("Sound") then
	startupSound:Play()
else
	warn("startup doesnt exist")
end
#26

OH WAIT i just realised the npc works

#27

it doesnt work on the player but on npc yes

#28

Test this:

-- Made by Frosty

local character = script.Parent
local hum = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):WaitForChild("Animator")

-- checks for animation
local animation = script:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animation")
if not animation then
	warn("animation doesnt exit")
	return
end

-- plays da aniamtion
local anim = hum:LoadAnimation(animation)
anim.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action4

anim:Play()
if anim.IsPlaying then
print("Animation is playing")
end

-- checks for startup
local startupSound = script:FindFirstChild("Startup")
if startupSound and startupSound:IsA("Sound") then
	startupSound:Play()
else
	warn("startup doesnt exist")
end
#29

Try this script, I specified the character through the player

-- Made by Frosty
local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local character = plr.Character
local hum = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):WaitForChild("Animator")

-- checks for animation
local animation = script:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animation")
if not animation then
	warn("animation doesnt exit")
	return
end

-- plays da aniamtion
local anim = hum:LoadAnimation(animation)
anim.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action4

task.wait(0.25)

anim:Play()
if anim.IsPlaying then
print("Animation is playing")
end

-- checks for startup
local startupSound = script:FindFirstChild("Startup")
if startupSound and startupSound:IsA("Sound") then
	startupSound:Play()
else
	warn("startup doesnt exist")
end

wait i just realised somethingā€¦ im trying to make a serverscript run in the playercharacter

#31

Running animations on server is not a good idea, you will meet some delays.

#32

Dude, make that script localā€¦ LOL LOL

#33

wait it works thru server i just put a wait on the start :o

#34

Put this on local:

-- Made by Frosty

local character = script.Parent
local hum = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):WaitForChild("Animator")

-- checks for animation
local animation = script:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animation")
if not animation then
	warn("animation doesnt exit")
	return
end

-- plays da aniamtion
local anim = hum:LoadAnimation(animation)
anim.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action4

for _, animationTrack in ipairs(hum:GetPlayingAnimationTracks()) do
    animationTrack:Stop()
end

anim:Play()
if anim.IsPlaying then
print("Animation is playing")
end

-- checks for startup
local startupSound = script:FindFirstChild("Startup")
if startupSound and startupSound:IsA("Sound") then
	startupSound:Play()
else
	warn("startup doesnt exist")
end

Inside StarterCharacterScripts.
Wouldnā€™t suggest server as I explained here:

#35

oh yeah I remembered that there can be delays before the script and the script may not work

#36

yeah, the animation was too quick, but i though it was ok cus the sound was on time

#37

yeah but i need server cause its a battlegrounds game and i want the animations to be showed in everyoen

#38

Animations is replicated to everyone no matter what is it

#39

It seems like if you play the animation through a local script, then all players should see it

#40

aight i will check
word limitttttttttt
