Animations not working in tools

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#44

just to make things clear:
-where do you want to play the animation? on the script, or local script?
-Which one is the script, and which one is the local script?

#45

it looks like you have your local script disabled

#46

I want to make animations work in server scripts and the disabled scripts are the ones I don’t use

#47 
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local eventClean = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("eventclean")

eventClean.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player, spill)
	warn('Event Called!')

	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	warn('Character =', character, "AND humanoid =", humanoid)

	local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")

	local tool = script.Parent
	
	if animator then
		warn('Loaded Animator!')
		local anim = Instance.new("Animation")
		anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://126407570972225" -- βœ… μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ 고쳐야 함
		animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
		animationTrack:Play()

		task.delay(3, function()
			if animationTrack then
				animationTrack:Stop()
			end
		end)
	end

	

end)

this local script?

#48

yes, is it enabled or not enabled?

#51

Ah, the one you sent me earlier was a different script log.
Even when I test it with the script you sent me, no log appears.

#52

Okay, I think I got it, the server script is not getting called because you are not calling the event, so just for testing replace:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local eventClean = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("eventclean")

eventClean.OnClientEvent:Connect(function(player, spill)
	warn('Event Called!')

	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	warn('Character =', character, "AND humanoid =", humanoid)

	local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")

	local tool = script.Parent
	
	if animator then
		warn('Loaded Animator!')
		local anim = Instance.new("Animation")
		anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://126407570972225" -- βœ… μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ 고쳐야 함
		local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
		animationTrack:Play()

		task.delay(3, function()
			if animationTrack then
				animationTrack:Stop()
			end
		end)
	end
end)

with this to debug:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local eventClean = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("eventclean")

wait(10)
	warn('Event Called!')

	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	warn('Character =', character, "AND humanoid =", humanoid)

	local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")

	local tool = script.Parent
	
	if animator then
		warn('Loaded Animator!')
		local anim = Instance.new("Animation")
		anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://126407570972225" -- βœ… μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ 고쳐야 함
		local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
		animationTrack:Play()

		task.delay(3, function()
			if animationTrack then
				animationTrack:Stop()
			end
		end)
	end
#53

now, what are the logs that you got?

#54

where is player?
and is local script?

What?

#56

opps, then try:

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local eventClean = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("eventclean")

script.Parnet.Equipped:Connect(function()
    print("Tool has been equipped!")
	warn('Event Called!')
    player = Players:FindFirstChild(script.Parent.Parent.Name)

	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	warn('Character =', character, "AND humanoid =", humanoid)

	local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")

	local tool = script.Parent
	
	if animator then
		warn('Loaded Animator!')
		local anim = Instance.new("Animation")
		anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://126407570972225" -- βœ… μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ 고쳐야 함
		local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
		animationTrack:Play()

		task.delay(3, function()
			if animationTrack then
				animationTrack:Stop()
			end
		end)
	end
end)

just equip the mop, to debug

#57

Now, what logs do you get after equipping?

#58

This will help find the problem

#59

21:42:15.169 Parnet is not a valid member of LocalScript β€œPlayers.xptmxmgkfj.Backpack.Mop.LocalScript”

#60

Check Output for errors. sometimes roblox simply refuse to load animations. It could help to restart studio.

#61

okay, now try this

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local eventClean = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("eventclean")

script.Parnet.Equipped:Connect(function()
    print("Tool has been equipped!")
	warn('Event Called!')
    player = Players.xptmxmgkfj

	local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
	local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
	warn('Character =', character, "AND humanoid =", humanoid)

	local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")

	local tool = script.Parent
	
	if animator then
		warn('Loaded Animator!')
		local anim = Instance.new("Animation")
		anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://126407570972225" -- βœ… μ΄λ ‡κ²Œ 고쳐야 함
		local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
		animationTrack:Play()

		task.delay(3, function()
			if animationTrack then
				animationTrack:Stop()
			end
		end)
	end
end)
#63

The animation works
But how to change?

#64

Wait, when did it work, which script???

#65

Also let’s not do this harder than it have to. Just debug this piece of code instead:

local player = game.Player.LocalPlayer
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local animator = humanoid:WaitForChild("Animator")

local anim = Instance.new("Animation")
anim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://126407570972225"

local track = animator:LoadAnimation(anim)
track:Play()
print("is playing")
#66

The event side didn’t work, only the animation worked.
