Server animation not correctly replicating to client

[ItsPlasmaRBLX (Brer Rabbit)]

No matter what I do, I cannot get a single animation from the server to replicate back to the client. I’ve tried loading animation instances that the client has already loaded in and that doesn’t seem to be working either.

Server code:

local idleAnimation = Instance.new("Animation")
idleAnimation.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://122194723067274";

local idletrack = characterAnimator:LoadAnimation(idleAnimation)
idletrack.Priority = Enum.AnimationPriority.Action4
idletrack:Play()

Here is what is happening on my end:

This is a matter of replication not group/profile animations. If I wait 1 second the animation replicates but I can’t afford to do that.

Hi, i did some snooping to see if any others have had this problem, have you tried;

Animations not properly replicating to client

I’ve fully fixed the issue. As I suspected, it’s a client issue. Because assets are lazy loaded (i.e. they’re only downloaded when needed) the animation does not have .Looped set to true on the first pass of the animation. However, if you manually preload the animations using ContentProvider:PreloadAsync() this issue is resolved. Below you will find the local script I use for this. local ContentProvider = game:GetService("ContentProvider") local Animator = script.Parent local Children = A…

Have you tried setting the weight value in the :Play() method? Roblox core animations have a weight of 10.

As expected, this did not fix the replication issue. The primary issue here is that the animation is not replicating, this is not a matter of weight or priority.
