I would like to play an animation so that everyone can see it, the animation is running but I want it to play in a ‘loop’ way when I press the W key, what am I doing wrong?
local runAnimation = script.Parent.runAnim
local runAnimationTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(runAnimation)
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W then
-- Play anim
runAnimation:Play()
end
end)
What exactly is the error it shows?
Oh sorry, I was wrong, **there's no error is shown in output I just updated the post with more details
Oh 
Well I think you need to set the animation to loop in the animation editor and then you’ll also need to check when the input ends too so that you can stop the animation.
Something like this? the problem is that it’s not playing the animation 
local runAnimation = script.Parent.runAnim
local runAnimationTrack = humanoid:LoadAnimation(runAnimation)
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W then
-- Play anim
runAnimation:Play()
end
end)
uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W then
-- Play anim
runAnimation:Stop()
end
end)
Ah yes, I see the issue. Unfortunately Humanoid | Roblox Creator Documentation was deprecated so you’ll need to use the newer Animator | Roblox Creator Documentation instead - it works in pretty much the same way from what I can tell when I’ve used it.
Humanoid:LoadAnimation still works, its not deprecated
I just did it but the animation does not play, it does not show the print either
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:wait()
local humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local animator = humanoid:FindFirstChildOfClass("Animator")
local animationId = script.Parent.runAnim.AnimationId
local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(animationId)
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
if animator then
local playAnim = animationTrack
playAnim:Play()
print('playing animation')
return playAnim
end
end
end)
uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
if animator then
local playAnim = animationTrack
playAnim:Play()
print('stop animation')
return playAnim
end
end
end)
and got an error:
local runAnimation = script.Parent.runAnim
local runAnimationTrack = humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(runAnimation)
runAnimationTrack.Looped = true
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W then
-- Play anim
runAnimation:Play()
end
end)
uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W then
-- Stop anim
runAnimation:Stop()
end
end)
Edit: forgot to add the script box lol
got an error
whoops I used the wrong variable
local runAnimation = script.Parent.runAnim
local runAnimationTrack = humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(runAnimation)
runAnimationTrack.Looped = true
uis.InputBegan:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W then
-- Play anim
runAnimationTrack:Play()
end
end)
uis.InputEnded:Connect(function(input)
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.W then
-- Stop anim
runAnimationTrack:Stop()
end
end)
First of all you would put the animationId into the actual animation instance then you would use the
LoadAnimation() function on the humanoid with a colon infront of it and the whole animation in the parameter
Thats funny though it works for me fine
Just cuz it works fine doesn’t mean it isn’t deprecated. You can still use deprecated functions, just they won’t work as well as the alternative.
I mean it is… use your eyes man
Somthing along The lines of this should work
Alr sorry I didnt know it was deprecated just always worked flawless for me
You don’t need to redefine the animation. my code should work a bit better
Thank you so much guys! it is working perfect! 
thank you for your comments they were very helpful
