Hello, i am trying to make a Advanced Sword System, i made the animations, but i dont know how can i make the walking animation and the idle animation when the Sword is equipped.

I already search in the internet for result but none of them helped.

Check the events for this for some info you might want to know
https://developer.roblox.com/en-us/api-reference/class/Tool
And at the bottom of this one you get some code to play animations.

i know how to detect if player equipped the tool, but how i can change player’s walking animation.

You load an animation and play it once equipped and maybe have the animation priority above the idle and walk animation

So if you look in the characters Animate script. There are TONS of Values with animations in them.

You would have to make a script that does something along these lines:

-- author - @DevKeia @8/31/22

-- for devfourm (made for TheFurukanDev) --

-- The Default Animations, just got them from the character. --
local DefaultAnimationIdle1 = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=2510196951"
local DefaultAnimationIdle2 = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=2510197257"

local DefaultAnimationRun = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=2510198475"

script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
	--// Varibles
	
	-- We are just getting the player --
	local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
	local Character = plr.Character
	
	-- Here, we are defining the players animations! --
	local IdleAnim = Character.Animate.idle.Animation1.AnimationId
	local IdleAnim2 = Character.Animate.idle.Animation2.AnimationId
	
	local RunAnimation = Character.Animate.run.RunAnim.AnimationId
	
	-- NOTE: You really don't need to change
	-- The walk animation, no point, your run anim is your walk.
	
	-- Change "Your Animation Id" to the animation ids
	-- Make sure you put an animation into workspace and
	-- Let that define it as an asset, because roblox
	-- Does not know if it is an asset or not.
	
	IdleAnim = "Your Animation Id"
	IdleAnim2 = "Your Animation Id"
	
	RunAnimation = "Your Animation Id"
	
end)

script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	--// Varibles
	
	-- Here we are just setting it back --
	
	local plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
	local Character = plr.Character
	
	local IdleAnim = Character.Animate.idle.Animation1.AnimationId
	local IdleAnim2 = Character.Animate.idle.Animation2.AnimationId

	local RunAnimation = Character.Animate.run.RunAnim.AnimationId
	
	-- Change the varibles at the top if you have custom --
	-- Animations for the idle & the run --
	
	RunAnimation = DefaultAnimationRun
	
	IdleAnim = DefaultAnimationIdle1
	IdleAnim2 = DefaultAnimationIdle2
end)
