I’ve already tried to look up for other topics,like mine,but i couldn’t find the right answer.Please,can someone find an error in this local script?

local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://138509202688208"
local hum = script.Parent:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
local humanoid = hum:WaitForChild("Animator")
local erm = humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)


erm:Play()

Did you even parent the animation instance to something???
Parent it to where you need it and then load it!

#7

it is already parented to the script

#8

Nope, you are constructing an instance. You never parented it.

Try this to check where is your error :

local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://138509202688208"

local hum = script.Parent:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
print("Humanoid find")

local humanoid = hum:WaitForChild("Animator")
print("Animator find")

local erm = humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)
print("Animation loaded")

erm:Play()
print("Animation played")

Here this might work:

local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.Parent = script
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://138509202688208"
local hum = script.Parent:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
local Animator = hum:WaitForChild("Animator")
local erm =Animator:LoadAnimation(animation)


erm:Play()

so apparently,everything prints,but the animation doesn’t work itself

Have you made the animation?
Did the owner share and give access?

#14

oh that error means that u dont own the animation, did u take it from toolbox? if u did, then just reupload it as urs, this vid might help:

#15

im working on my friend’s game,and he made the animation

#16 
local animation = Instance.new("Animation") 
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://138509202688208"

local hum = script.Parent:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
print("Humanoid find")

local humanoid = hum:WaitForChild("Animator")
print("Animator find")

local erm = humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)
print("Animation loaded")

UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(Key) 
	if Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.C or Key.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.LeftShift then	
		erm:Play()
		print("Animation played") 
	end
end)

what about this script?

#17

oh then uh thats not a problem if its ur friends game and his anim, in roblox it will play it just wont play for u in roblox studio

#18

Try doing this:

local animation = Instance.new("Animation")
animation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://138509202688208"
local hum = script.Parent:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
local humanoid = hum:WaitForChild("Animator")
local erm = humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)

task.wait(0.5)
erm:Play()

I see this happen a lot, if you play an animation right when you load an animation, chances are, it wont play, so add a task.wait

Ok so this is probably why it isnt working.

In roblox you cant use other peoples animations, unless the game you are editing is under a group, and the animation was uploaded to said group, otherwise I dont believe you can use the animation
