Animation speed changes according to humanoid walkspeed

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Is there anyway to make the animation independent from the humanoid walkspeed? What I mean by that is that if I change the humanoid walkspeed to 100, my run animation would look as if the walkspeed is set to the default 16.
I think this “issue” has to do with something in the “Animate” script inside every player character.

EDIT: Here is the R6 fix for that

Yes, you can use AnimationTrack:AdjustSpeed(walkspeed/16).

Oh wait the animation speed itself is not working when you run at 100 walkspeed?

Thanks for replying but I have no idea where to put what you said in. Let me explain you my situation:
I want to make players who join my game have the default animation pack. And what I did was take the default “Animate” script and changed the IDs inside of it to the default ones, made a copy of it and stored it in ReplicatedStorage, then whenever someone joins their default “Animate” script gets deleted and replaced with the one that has the default animations.

I don’t want the animation to move that fast even tho the walkspeed value is set to 100, i want to to seem like it’s set to 16 or something natural.
Please mind the Gyazo framerate, but you get the idea of how fast the character’s animation is moving at.

Unfortunately that’s how the animation script was made. If you want to fix that you would have to delete the line AnimationTrack:AdjustSpeed(walkspeed/16) in the script.

If you want I can edit the animation script and send it with this already deleted.

Animation fine for player but looks weird for others
Sprinting and walking animation based on player speed?
#11

Brilliant! This is exactly what I needed!

#12

I have one last question, how do I make it seem like it’s moving at any Humanoid walkspeed value?

#13

It’s fair to assume you’ve moved on from this concern, but maybe you’ve taken a 5 month break.

I wanted to know the same thing and this thread came up when I searched. I poked around and found an answer I prefer:
image

I saw the hint in the default script you posted:

local AnimationSpeedDampeningObject = script:FindFirstChild("ScaleDampeningPercent")
local HumanoidHipHeight = 2

I don’t see any reason to fight this. Just set the dampening value.

The animation speed is based on hipheight, movement speed, and that ScaleDampeningPercent. If you want your character to animate slower, increase the dampening.

function getHeightScale()
	if Humanoid then
		if not Humanoid.AutomaticScalingEnabled then
			return 1
		end
		
		local scale = Humanoid.HipHeight / HumanoidHipHeight
		if AnimationSpeedDampeningObject == nil then
			AnimationSpeedDampeningObject = script:FindFirstChild("ScaleDampeningPercent")
		end
		if AnimationSpeedDampeningObject ~= nil then
			scale = 1 + (Humanoid.HipHeight - HumanoidHipHeight) * AnimationSpeedDampeningObject.Value / HumanoidHipHeight
		end
		return scale
	end	
	return 1
end

local function rootMotionCompensation(speed)
	local speedScaled = speed * 1.25
	local heightScale = getHeightScale()
	local runSpeed = speedScaled / heightScale
	return runSpeed
end

Untested code here, but approximately what you want to do to change the speed is:

-- you had:
local Character = script.Parent
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid") 
-- so:
local scaleDampening = Character:WaitForChild("Animate"):WaitForChild("ScaleDampeningPercent")
local defaultDampening = scaleDampening.Value

-- then where you want to change the speed:
local speedFactor = 0.5 -- half animation speed
scaleDampening.Value = defaultDampening / speedFactor

Otherwise, every time the animation script changes the animation, you have to fight it.

My animation speed change script isn't working
#14

sorry for the bump on a 8 month old thread, but how would i do this with the R6 version of the animate script?

Oh my, it’s been 8 months already? Feels like yesterday, (not rlly but it def doesn’t feel like 8 months ago o_o).
Here you go, the function is at line 189, if you ever need to re-enable it, just uncomment it.
