I want to play an animation through a local script since I only want the local player to see it occur and I get this error!
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = script.Parent
local cam = workspace.Camera
local run = game:GetService("RunService")
local arms = game.ReplicatedFirst.Arms:Clone()
local holdTrack = arms.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script:WaitForChild("Hold"))
holdTrack:Play()
run.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
arms:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(cam.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,-1.5,0))
end)
arms.Parent = cam

Ah yes. Your issue here is you are attempting to cross the client server boundary without a remote to help you out. You are starting from what I assume is a LocalScript, but then you are attempting to call Clone() a function reserved for the server as a security feature. Your solution is to use a Remote Event/Function to do the clone portion of the stuff, then you can access the camera locally after the cloning happens.

Also. Your arms should be stored in ServerStorage, not replicated first. Is there any particular reason you are storing it in ReplicatedFirst? This is the container for first items to load. Meant for tutorials and loading screens and the like.
Thank you for your response, the arms in Replicated First for testing purposes!

Well. Either way your solution to your Animation bit, is to use a remote event to call a function on the server which will Clone the arms, which should be stored in server storage. Then you can parent the arms to whatever, and then you can play the animation locally after the remote event happens. And due to the nature of the code, this can all happen after you call the remote no need to wait so you would essentially do A on the client, send B to the server, and A will pause itself until B is done. The beauty of scripts.
