i added i picture of the error at the top and it works for me but it fails to load on my friend

#25

it also only works in playtests

#26

Always run animations on a local script.
Also make sure the animation is yours or if this a group project make sure the group owns the animation.

this is a group project and i have switched to a group animation and a local script and it has the same error new animation

#28

Wish I could help more but the only thing I can think of is that the animation your trying to use is not owned by the group, maybe you forgot to replace the animation Id? You should be able to go to the creation tab on roblox and look at your group animations than just copy the link of the animation into the animation object.

#29

should i do animation id or url

#30

The url should automatically turn into an Id, if your putting into an animation object.

#31

yesok thats how i have it set up yesok2

#32

You would paste the url into animationId. Also I would suggest to put the local script into StarterCharacterScripts. You would have to alter you script something like this tho
Keep the animation in the local script while moving it over to StarterCharacterScripts.

EDIT

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Tool =  Player.Backpack. --Tool name
local Animation = script:FindFirstChild("pickanim")
local debounce = false
Tool.Activated:Connect(function()
	if debouce then return end
		debouce = true
	

    local Character =  Player.Character
    local Humanoid = Character.Humanoid
   
    local AnimationTrack = Humanoid:LoadAnimation(Animation)
	    AnimationTrack:Play()
	wait(3)
	debouce = false 
	
end)

ive moved it into startercharacterscripts with the animation inside of the localscript and i get this error image

#34

The tool is being defined wrong

local Tool = Player.Backpack.Pickaxe

Make sure nothing else in your backpack is named pickaxe (Backpack is where all your tools go from starterPack) So if there are two things named Pickaxe in starterpack change one of the names

#35

ok i will try this not sure if this helps but you pick up the tool

#36

Has roblox accepted the animation yet. thatā€™s probably the issue.

#37

Oh okay, then try to define tool as

local Tool = game.Workspace.Pickaxe

Just make sure there isnā€™t two things in workspace named pickaxe

#39

it says your post is withdrawn

#40

it was made 2 days ago it has hopefully been accepted

ok i will try this thank you

#41

Is the script inside the tool if so.

define the tool as

local Tool = script.Parent
#42

its not inside its inside startercharacterscripts
