Hi im new at devforum but whatcha mean with “all” like literally every animation? stop everything
stop really everything? you will be just idle but no animation at all?
and then turn these that was playing before on?

#3

Yes, I want no animations to be playing at all. Even the default ones, including the idle animations like the head turning. I just want it to be stand still. Thanks.

Yes, I have. Unfortunately it doesn’t stop default animations from playing.

??
and then enable the animate that it will return the default

I’ve done:

local animate = char.Animate
animate.Disabled = true

But it doesn’t do anything to stop the animations unfortunately. :confused:

I mean you can just try it yourself it’s only a couple lines or more of code. Just try to stop the default animations from playing using code. Right now I don’t have an answer.

I don’t know why something so simple can be so frustratingly difficult.

game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:WaitForChild("Animate").Enabled = false

for i,v in pairs(game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Humanoid"):GetPlayingAnimationTracks()) do
	if v.IsPlaying == true then -- or if v.IsPlaying == false if you want both
		v:Stop()
		local the = Instance.new("StringValue",script)
		the.Value = v.Animation.AnimationId -- get rid of this if you want
	end
end
-- to play back again
for i,v in pairs(script:GetDescendants()) do
	if v:IsA("StringValue") then
if v.Value ~= "" and v.Value ~= " " then
		local e = Instance.new("Animation")
		e.AnimationId = v.Value
		local anim = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):LoadAnimation(e)
		anim:Play()
		v:Destroy()
end
	end
end

i have made this simple script let me test it rq
let me fix a few stuff

yeah it should work but i’d recommend not use my play back again just enable the animate instead

#12

Thanks, I think it worked on the server side as well. Thanks for your help.

#13

basically animation on client it also shows in the server, if the animation was made by you and the game was aswell made by you
