Animations WILL NOT Load instantly on the first try NO MATTER WHAT

  1. What do you want to achieve?
    I want Animations to Play IMMEDIATELY when the function is called. No Waiting for it to load or anything like that.

  2. What is the issue?
    The Animation WILL NOT LOAD IMMEDIATELY NO MATTER WHAT.

  3. What solutions have you thought of so far?
    Even with “Preload()” and “PreloadAsync(),” and even waiting for scripts to run AFTER it verifies that the animation IS IN FACT PLAYING. The Animation Yet Still Waits AT MOST 2 Seconds To actually start playing AFTER The script even runs any code after.

Nothing works.

If your Roblox animation doesn’t play immediately, even with PreloadAsync(), check this list of.

Make sure PreloadAsync() fully finishes before playing the animation in script.

contentProvider:PreloadAsync({animation})

Set High Animation Priority, preventing conflicts with other animations.

animTrack.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action
animTrack:Play()

Reduce Networking Delays by triggering the animation in a localscript.

remoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
    animTrack:Play()
end)

Set blend time to 0 for instant transitions.

animTrack:Play(0)

And use F9 to check for script delays.

If the issue persists,
try reducing the animation’s length or complexity and preload it during game startup.
Or simply play the animation directly on button press so it has time to load before the fade.

Sincerely,
Bellamy Lakey.
