Roblox Default Tool Animation Is Broken!

Hello developers. I am currently developing a Border Game for my group which you can read about here. Around a few weeks ago all of the animations broke in the game. (You can see this in the GnomeCode stream when he tested out the game here.

I don’t remember how we fixed this exactly, but I believe it had to do something with a new animation script (in StarterCharacterScripts or something). This may be incorrect. From there on everything worked pretty well. Until now when I was testing. I equipped a tool and noticed that it did not play Roblox’s Default Tool holding animation. I have no clue what is wrong with it, but I know it is just that animation, because our tools with the custom animations don’t have this problem.

For example, here is the Classic Sword in our game, and as I described it is not doing the normal Tool-Hold animation. We are set to release on August 10th and if we can’t get this problem fixed all of our work will be for nothing.

We also have many errors and I am sure this might be connected, but these have been around since very early on.

I ask anyone that can help, please do so. This game means a lot to me and I am planning to spend a lot of money to advertise, all coming from my own pocket. Thanks!

R6 idle: 180435571
R6 Walk: 180426354
R6 Run: 180426354
R6 jump: 125750702

8

10

it’s a basic r6 animation for holding tool?

If your animations aren’t made by you or the group, then this error should appear in the console.

Failed to load sanitized ID:

Have you checked both server and client consoles? This depends because your Animate script could either be a LocalScript or the other. Also, does your Animate script have a tool_none descendant and is in the animations table in the script? Does it have a valid animation reference?

Writing this on my phone so I might be wrong

I didnt see the “Failed to load sanitized ID:” error in either consoles sadly. along with that all the custom animations have been working recently so i think they are under our group. its only that one Default holding animation.

Also would you mind explaining this a bit more? I’ve never heard of such things (new to animation)
