Failed to load animation - sanitized ID

[Tamegogeta13 (NTAB_Tame)]

no what you didn’t realize is this is why the failed sanitized is happening and i stated that from the beginning with the first person " you can be the ownership of said animations but it wont load your ANIMATIONS" You Do Not Have Ownership Of Animation With The Selected Id - #17 by FoxwelI and it’s not a connection to the server it’s roblox in general if my game WAS WORKING FINE before the roblox update why would it be my connection i clearly said it worked fine before rejoining

Pretty sure this isn’t a roblox issue and it is related to scripts, I had this yesterday, after respawning it worked.

[Tamegogeta13 (NTAB_Tame)]

it’s a roblox issue people are reporting it still and just read the comment before yours it explains alot

[Sir_Highness]

If the id is a known valid id then you are correct, there is nothing to fix, the animation just failed to load for whatever reason. It may not fail the next time you try. The wording of the error message is confusing. ‘Sanitized’ doesn’t mean anything was wrong with it as a roblox rep states here:

Output spammed with "Failed to load Animation - sanitized ID" for ID's that aren't in the game upon startup

The asset ID is “cleaned up” right before the error message is logged to be more readable and to prevent any sensitive information from accidentally being shown. In most cases, the sanitized ID should be the same as the asset ID. If the asset ID was invalid, an error message may be shown instead or invalid characters may be removed. Sorry for the lack of clarity on this part

I have read the comment before posting, and reporting stuff is normal.

Roblox will NOT fix a bug with your specific assets. The entire platform is buggy, and it’s rare to find something that will actually be fixed.

People on this forum are trying to help you and you are seem to have an idea that they are required to provide any help to you when they aren’t, stop being so disrespectful to people trying to help you.

I’ve had this issue several times, it is a pain, you need to reupload the animations. It’s not going to be fixed by Roblox. They won’t even fix blatant documentation mistakes, they aren’t going to bother fixing this bug, this is 2023, not 2016, they don’t care.

it works ingame, trust me i had this

[ph33sh]

this started happening to me the last few days for a ton of animations I own/created myself under the correct name etc.

@OfficialPogCat

d ID means you have an improver ID. Meaning that the Animation simply doesn’t exist, Isn’t Loaded properly, Is not published correctly, Ownership issue ect… If I were you I would si

is there any fix yet… im having tihs exact same issue.

@graverealm

is there any fix yet

Upload it to a group, that’s the only way it seems like, fixed it for me

[pivotgrind]

roblox please fix this is happening to every animation

[Tamegogeta13 (NTAB_Tame)]

uploading to yourself will make it take a while but to group is instant for some odd reason they need to fix this indeed

[kbcubezz]

Uh. Apparently this was fixed a few days ago, according to a Roblox staff. Scroll all the way down on this.

VERY URGENT Cannot play or edit animations

Hi, I’m unable to play animations in my game before they’re reviewed by moderation. I’m also unable to load them into the animation editor. When they’re supposed to run in game it’ll say “Failed to load animation - sanitized ID:” When I try to load it into the animation editor it’ll say “You do not have permission to use this” or something like that [image] [image] The animations were uploaded by me and the game they’re supposed to be running on is also uploaded by me

People were getting mad about this.

I think if you made the animation before the bug was fixed it wont work. But any you made after they said it was fixed, should work.

I made one after it was fixed and it loaded fine.
All the ones from during the bug didn’t show a play logo and gave me the same error.

Try saving the animation under a new name, maybe that’ll work if you really want to keep them.

[Tamegogeta13 (NTAB_Tame)]

Your feelings hurt?? Cause I told him to just read I can see you can’t read either

[kbcubezz]

I think you should pause, read my post again.
I understand your dissapointed and everyone else experiencing this was disappointed too.

You will “Own your animation” when you reupload, as buddy said.

Roblox said they fixed the bug. Now its up to you to go through your animations and resave the ones that got affected.

From that point on you should be good.
No reason to get mad at people who are trying to help you.

[kbcubezz]

Im starting to feel like people dont read aswell. If you look at the link i posted. Second commennt from the bottom you’ll see that a roblox staff said the problem had nothing to do with animations being moderated. People seem to be very misinformed about this topic

[BloxSoMeta]

Hello all, apologies for how frustrating this issue has been… we have also been having trouble narrowing it down to a single root cause. There are actually multiple potential problems going on here, some of which have already been fixed, so please take another look and let us know if you continue to see issues.

• The ‘sanitized id’ part of the message is new, but it is not a new error, we’re just taking an extra security step to validate the request was truly for an animation asset id.
• There was a formatting problem with this message update, so it was truncating the id and reporting the wrong/non-existent asset id as a result. This has been fixed.
• Around the same time, there were some separate issues around content loading that affected animations:
  • Uploads could sometimes get stuck in a long backlog queue to publish, creating the appearance of non-existent assets and/or moderation issues. This has been fixed.
  • There was another issue that was discovered that could cause assets to delay or fail to load. This was just recently addressed (see here)
• Irrespective of the root issue, the message is not very informative or helpful to understand why the animation asset failed to load. We are working on improvements to that for your benefit (and ours, quite frankly).
• Lastly, in some cases there could just be a legitimate permissions issue with the animation, due to privacy issues. The content management team is very aware of these pain points (e.g. wanting to share animations with or across groups) and we plan to have improvements in the near future (as in 2024).

In the meantime, we will improve the error reporting to aid in debugging.

TL;DR - thank you for your patience with this one and please try again in case the recent content loading fixes have addressed the problem. If not, please reply here or to me directly and we will continue to investigate (caveat: many of us will be offline over the next few weeks, so we will respond in early January).

Thanks again.

33 days later, FOUND THE SOLUTION (at least worked for me)

just simply go to workspace and enable “ClientAnimatorThrottling” and it will WORK

Doesn’t work still, still throwing out sanitized ID error.

[LoreStorm (Lore)]

This is still an ongoing issue, would love if this could be looked into further! For some odd reason the animation works whenever I’m play testing in studio but as soon as I’m in the live game itself, it’s broken and is throwing out the error.
