Animation not playing on npc

The animation on the npc does not play for some reason, here’s the code that plays it, its really simple.

controller:LoadAnimation(script.Animation):Play()

I don’t know if this is what you’re looking for, but I think you want an animation you made to play on an NPC? Whenever I do that I just do…

local animationId = 00000 --Change to your ID

	game.InsertService:LoadAsset(animationId).Parent = game.ReplicatedStorage

local controller = script.Parent.Humanoid
controller:LoadAnimation(script.Animation):Play()

And then insert an Animation to it and change that too. I’m not the best scripter though… this is just what I use.

Is your animation a descendant of the humanoid?

What I use is actually pretty simple.
Insert a script in the npc and add an animation into the script (and change the animation id to whatever your animation id is)
And then implement this code into the script:

 local animation = script:WaitForChild('Animation') 
local humanoid = script.Parent:WaitForChild('Humanoid')
local dance = humanoid:LoadAnimation(animation)
dance:Play()

This works for me. If it doesn’t work for you, just tell me and I’ll try to help you.

Note : Server Script

local NpcLoader = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local Animation = NpcLoader:LoadAnimation(script.Animation)
Animation:Play()

Could you send us the whole script and the output? It would help a lot.

AnimationController and Humanoid LoadAnimation functions are depricated, use animator

local id = 0 -- id here
local Animator= Model.Animator

Animator:LoadAnimation(Instance.new("Animation").AnimationId(id)):Play()
