For anyone reading this post 4 years later like me (or more), here’s another way to fix it cuz I didn’t understood @Icey_CD 's version bc I’m lowkey too dumb
you can re adapt the default “Animate” localscript to put not into the character, but into the player by putting it into StarterPlayerScripts and re adapting the script (I did it easly with deepseek and a few fixes)
to clear up the default animate script you need to create an empty local script called animate in the starter character scripts (like in the picture)
And here is the new code handling new characters for the localscript in StarterPlayerScripts (don’t forget to past into it all of the stuff there was in the default animate local script) :
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
local Figure = nil
local Humanoid = nil
local pose = "Standing"
local EMOTE_TRANSITION_TIME = 0.1
local userAnimateScaleRunSuccess, userAnimateScaleRunValue = pcall(function() return UserSettings():IsUserFeatureEnabled("UserAnimateScaleRun") end)
local userAnimateScaleRun = userAnimateScaleRunSuccess and userAnimateScaleRunValue
local function getRigScale()
if userAnimateScaleRun then
return Figure:GetScale()
else
return 1
end
end
