Animation not working?

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve?
    to play the animation

  2. What is the issue?
    the animation wont play but the output prints the text

  3. What solutions have you tried so far?
    tried republishing the animation twice


while wait(10) do

	anim:Play()
	print("AnimPlaying")	
	wait(3)

end

really not sure why this isnt working, i get the output in studio/play testing but the animation isnt playing

so sorry i forgot to include the top line of the script

#5

do
local ani = script.Parent.HeadAnim
local hum = script.Parent:WaitForChild(“Humanoid”)
local playani = hum:LoadAnimation(ani)

while wait(10) do
playani:Play()
wait(3)
end

That might work, Maybe do a repeat until loop instead of while loop

#6

i added a print statement to show the script is working, but the animation still doesnt play :frowning:

#7

maybe i could try using Vectors instead of animation ?

#8

Maybe. Try a repeat until loop

If im correct, the animation isnt playing, is the game inside a group? if yes then you will have to upload the animation directly in the group

the simplest cause is that something in the model is anchored. Assuming that isnt the case then another cause could be that the owner of the game isnt the same as the owner of the animation. If the game is published under a group or an account that isnt the same as the one you used to publish, then the animation wont play. It’s a mechanism roblox has to prevent stealing assets. All you need to do to fix it is publish it under the same account or group.

try using the animator inside the humanoid. The code is the same but it looks like this …

Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
