Bumping - At least give an allow-animation process like Sounds have, where you can explicitly grant permission to other places if you Publish to Roblox in a different place.
Group-to-Group / Player-to-Group Animation transferring sucks.

Bumping this thread, would like to see public animations in the roblox field again.
Bumping, animations and also sounds suffer from the lack of flexability there is with perms (ofc a public option would solve most of these issues), I have a package admin I made that uses anims and sounds and for every experience (has diff ownership) I add it to I have to go through hell uploading animations and setting the sounds’ perms (it’s horrible the way it is right now) to allow them to be played in the experience

I think this would work best if the animations wouldn’t work on a game until the game owner adds them to their inventory. Remember when Roblox uploaded a rope-swinging animation on their account? Exploiters sure do. They call it ;bang.

You did NOT 
I am onto agreeing this statement
and that it should be convenient for developers for both animations and sounds.
However, I believe there should be selection for developers.
I currently suck at animating, and using any public animations as a placeholder for now would allow me to work on the remaining of the game faster and gives me more confidence. I still need after 6 years of requesting.
Please tell me there’s been an updateee
honestly, i dont know why animations are per user, if you can spoof anims anyway, why even bother making this a thing and not changing it? im pretty sure everybody would be happy as they would like to get free animations, there are animators who want to open source weapons they made along with animations and it requires the other user to reupload all anims which suck, dont know why its still a feature in 2024 if animation spoofing is so easy to do, not to mention its not even a good feature.
I feel like a request like this should’ve been filed with intent for privacy and publicity with animations. If the a player wants their animation not to be stolen, it should be more than possible just like audios, and if the player wants it to be public, they can make it public.
clearly, its an obvious feature that wouldve been added no matter what so its pointless to even mention it, its like audios.
It’s not clear that its going to release, its like decals and whatnot they’d have to put it on an agenda list that’s pending release. I would expect something mentioning it but I’ve yet to come across it, its always great to remind them if they don’t remember.
no i meant about public or private options
can we finally get this? i had to reupload 70 animations to a different group because permissions arent a damn thing

@Roblox do you have any excuse as to why this isn’t a thing yet? No? I thought so.

Roblox being Roblox… Prioritizing the development of unimportant and unnecessary changes, meanwhile ignoring the community’s wants and needs.

And then when you make a feature request for this people will say “this request has already been made, your request sucks” even though the request was made years ago. At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if roblox just forgot about making public animations in the first place.
Please file it again, It’s been 5 years.
8 days ago, they mentioned Animation Privacy features are scheduled for May-August 2025.
A simple checkbox is being delayed by a year.
