Is the Animation owned by you? If it isn’t, then I believe it can’t be able to be played within your game

Also use the Tool.Activated Event instead for this, there isn’t a necessity to be checking 2 functions inside of each other

local Tool = script.Parent
local Plr = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Chr = Plr.Character or Plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Animator = Chr:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):WaitForChild("Animator")
local Animation

Tool.Activated:Connect(function()
    Animation = Animator:LoadAnimation(Tool.Animation)
    Animation:Play()
end)

Tool.Unequipped:Connect(function()
    Animation:Stop()
end)

Otherwise, I’d check to see what your AnimationPriority is set as cause that may be overlapping with your other default animations

The Animation you try to load needs to be owner by the user or group that owns the game.

I didn’t try either of these solutions yet but I am going to rn. Quick question first tho is it a problem that the animations is owned by me but its a group game?

#5

Yes
That is most likely the issue

Okay thank you I will try and test these suggestions tomorrow!

FYI: If you don’t own an animation, it’s really likely to not work in your game(s).

I fixed it now I just had to add it to the group instead of myself. It was owned by me but even though I owned the group it was in it didn’t work because it was owned by me and not the group.
