Animation only runs client sided and no one can see it [SOLVED]

I tried with server script and that doesn’t work you need a local or it doesn’t work for some reason

Okay. But have you tried creating a new script file and pasting the code there?

Didn’t work like I can play the animation in-game but my friend can’t and he doesn’t see the animation either

So he can see the script…?

I understood this as him being unable to see the script, not the effects of the script.

Oooh sorry mb Like he can’t see the effects in studio or in-game

Okay, I see. Thank you for clearing that up!

After googling I found this answer on another thread:

Perhaps this is the issue?

Based on what I’m hearing I think you have collaborative editing enabled. You might want to check this out: Collaborative Editing has arrived! - Updates / Announcements - DevForum | Roblox
Also is this in a group? If so, make sure to upload the animations to the group not to your account.

This is not in a group this is my account also I do have that enabled

It wont work inside of a server script because you define the player as game.Players.LocalPlayer you can not define a local player inside of a server script, simply just delete your script and make a new local script then transfer the code to see if it works. Also maybe just use a remote event to transfer the animation and the player to the server and handle everything else server sided.

You need to put them in ReplicatedStorage I think. It’s on the server, and all players also have access to them.

That would explain it, animations are only authorized to be sent to members of a group or the owner, so because your animations are put in your account then it doesnt let him use it.

Were you using :FireServer and not .FireServer, How were you using the remote event. Have you both reloaded roblox studio? Did you make a new script? Are you defining the correct part?

Animations are only visible to the uploader at first, if the animation id’s and scripts are correct then you should be able to see them while you are in-game. If you still can’t see them then the animations may not have been exported to the website…
