The animation value is not nil and it should work and it has no errors, for some reason it does not play!

QAPcore.Animations.Inside.ScrollingFrame.DescendantAdded:Connect(function(object)
	for i,v in pairs(QAPcore.Animations.Inside.ScrollingFrame:GetChildren()) do
		if v.ClassName == "ImageButton" then
			local tmp = QAPcore.Animations.Inside.ScrollingFrame.Template
			v.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
				local anim = v.Main.AnimationID
				local preview = QAPcore.Preview.Main.ViewportFrame
				game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Char").Humanoid.Animator:Destroy()
				local newanimator = Instance.new("Animator")
				newanimator.Parent = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Char").Humanoid
				local animplay = game.Workspace:WaitForChild("Char").Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
				animplay.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action
				animplay:Play()
				animplay.Looped = true
			end)
		end
	end
end)

You need to actually create an animation object and set the AnimationId of the animation object to the id. Then you can load the animation object like so:

local a = Instance.new(“Animation”)
a.AnimationId = your_animation_id
hum:LoadAnimation(a):Play()

I assume he’s attempting to read the “AnimationId”* (not “AnimationID”) property of Animation. It is best to load the existing Animation instance over creating a copy.

@Spa_rkk, Animator:LoadAnimation requires the whole Animation instance, not just its ID. Correct your code to

local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(button.Animation)

Sorry for not specifying that

is an animation object sorry for the confusion

#5

try to change the animator variable to local newanimator = Instance.new("Animator", Char.Humanoid) or Char.Humanoid.Animator
and remove the newanimator.Parent line

the new animator works fine its just that it never playes the animations and I can still see that the animator is still there b ecause there are no errors and it detects when a animation is nil

#7

then check your animation id, and make sure the publisher is you, (if this is a team create without a group make sure the publisher is the owner of the game, and if it is in a group then make sure the animation is published under the group)

I made the animation five minutes before and published it myself and the game is owned by me

#9

try replacing this line with this
local animplay = newanimator:LoadAnimation(anim)

Debug the script by doing print() for example when button pressed, animation played, etc.
