How to Import Model with Animations that are made in Blockbench into Studio?

Howdy, I’ve been struggling to get my Animations from Blockbench imported into Studio?
Does Anyone know how to do it?

Even using the "Import with Animation’ Prompt when importing a Blockbench Model into Studio doesn’t work at all… Only The Model gets imported but not the Animation

If you’re reading this a solution would be appreciated!

Just a heads up—Roblox Studio doesn’t fully support Blockbench animations directly. The “Import with Animation” option only works if the model and animation are formatted exactly right, usually using a compatible .fbx or properly exported .obj with animation data (which Blockbench doesn’t always handle the same way Roblox expects).

To get animations into Studio, you’ll likely need to recreate them using Roblox’s Animation Editor after importing the rig. If you’re using a Blockbench plugin like GeckoLib, the animations won’t carry over either—you’d need to manually keyframe them in Studio.

I recommend using plugins like Rig Converter or Moon Animator 2

So, the only way of animating Objects/Characters made in Blockbench is by coding them manually or animating them using Roblox’s own animation Editor.
Thanks a lot!

But for example how to animate an Object like this:
Roblox just doesn’t let me animate imported Meshparts
Just smth

To animate imported MeshParts like the one in your example, you’ll need to use scripting since Roblox doesn’t support animating MeshParts with the Animation Editor. here’s a script you can use to make it rotate and float up and down

local mesh = script.Parent
local runService = game:GetService("RunService")
local startY = mesh.Position.Y
local t = 0

runService.Heartbeat:Connect(function(dt)
	t += dt
	mesh.CFrame = CFrame.new(mesh.Position.X, startY + math.sin(t * 2) * 0.5, mesh.Position.Z)
		* CFrame.Angles(0, t * 2, 0)
end)

this should help, if not please let me know and i’ll fix anything i can.
also i recommend checking other forms with this kind of topic. they would really help you!

Thanks a bunch!

But, is there any Way of animating a Mehspart/part with the Animation Editor?
I’ve seen someone on reddit once stating that it’s possible
to do so, but i dunno if it’s possible…
