Trying to adjust animation speed relative to walkspeed

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Self explanatory, I am trying to make a script that adjusts the animation speed relative to walkspeed. This is for my 8 directional walk system, here’s my attempt:

if NewSpeed < 18 then -- this is just a condition
		local Walk = Animate:FindFirstChild("walk")
		local WalkAnim = Walk.WalkAnim
		if Walk and WalkAnim.AnimationId ~= "rbxassetid://12603582942" then
			WalkAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://12603582942"
			ChangedAnimation = true
		end
		if ChangedAnimation == true then
			local Walk = Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(WalkAnim)
			Walk:AdjustSpeed(Speed/16)
		end
	end

This is the full script

local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local ExtraFunctions = require(ReplicatedStorage.Modules.ExtraFunctions)
local MathAddons = require(ReplicatedStorage.Modules.MathAddons)

local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
if not LocalPlayer then
	Players:GetPropertyChangedSignal("LocalPlayer"):Wait()
	LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer
end

local PlayerScripts = ExtraFunctions:WaitForChildWhichIsA(LocalPlayer, "PlayerScripts") :: PlayerScripts
local PlayerModule = require(PlayerScripts:WaitForChild("PlayerModule")) :: any

local Controls = PlayerModule:GetControls()

local Humanoid: Humanoid?
local Character = LocalPlayer.Character or LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")

local PlayerAnimations = ReplicatedStorage.Animations.PlayerAnimations

local LoadedAnimations = {}
local WalkAnimations = {
	Back = PlayerAnimations.WalkBack;
	Front = PlayerAnimations.WalkFront;
}

local Directions = {
	[Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)] = "Not Moving";
	[Vector3.new(0, 0, -1)] = "Foward";
	[Vector3.new(0, 0, 1)] = "Backward";
	[Vector3.new(-1, 0, 0)] = "Left";
	[Vector3.new(1, 0, 0)] = "Right";
	[Vector3.new(-1, 0, -1)] = "FowardLeft";
	[Vector3.new(1, 0, -1)] = "FowardRight";
	[Vector3.new(-1, 0, 1)] = "BackwardLeft";
	[Vector3.new(1, 0, 1)] = "BackwardRight";
}

local Character = LocalPlayer.Character or LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local Camera = workspace.CurrentCamera


local function ThumbstickCurve(X: number): number
	local K_CURVATURE = 2.0
	local K_DEADZONE = 0.15

	local function FCurve(X: number): number
		return (math.exp(K_CURVATURE * X) - 1) / (math.exp(K_CURVATURE) - 1)
	end

	local function FDeadzone(X: number): number
		return FCurve((X - K_DEADZONE) / (1 - K_DEADZONE))
	end

	return math.sign(X) * math.clamp(FDeadzone(math.abs(X)), 0, 1)
end

Humanoid.Running:Connect(function(Speed)
	local Animate = Character:FindFirstChild("Animate")
	local MoveVector = Controls:GetMoveVector()
	MoveVector = Vector3.new(
		math.round(ThumbstickCurve(MoveVector.X)),
		math.round(ThumbstickCurve(MoveVector.Y)),
		math.round(ThumbstickCurve(MoveVector.Z))
	)
	
	
	local NewSpeed = math.round(Speed)
	local ChangedAnimation = false
	-- This right here is my attempt
	if NewSpeed < 18 then -- this is just a condition
		local Walk = Animate:FindFirstChild("walk")
		local WalkAnim = Walk.WalkAnim
		if Walk and WalkAnim.AnimationId ~= "rbxassetid://12603582942" then
			WalkAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://12603582942"
			ChangedAnimation = true
		end
		if ChangedAnimation == true then
			local Walk = Humanoid.Animator:LoadAnimation(WalkAnim)
			Walk:AdjustSpeed(Speed/16)
		end
	end
	
	--if Directions[MoveVector] == "Foward" then
	--	local Walk = Animate:FindFirstChild("walk")
	--	local WalkAnim = Walk.WalkAnim
	--	if Walk and WalkAnim.AnimationId ~= "rbxassetid://12603582942" then
	--		print(MoveVector," | ", Directions[MoveVector])
	--		WalkAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://12603582942"
	--	end
	--end
	--if Directions[MoveVector] == "Backward" then
	--	local Walk = Animate:FindFirstChild("walk")
	--	local WalkAnim = Walk.WalkAnim
	--	if Walk and WalkAnim.AnimationId ~= "rbxassetid://12603582942" then
	--		print(MoveVector," | ", Directions[MoveVector])
	--		WalkAnim.AnimationId = "rbxassetid://12603582942"
	--	end
	--end

Bumping this topic, I haven’t found a solution :crying_cat_face:

#3

I’d love to know if you get a solution to this. I have the same problem using the default walk animation on NPCs where I vary their walkspeed and it always looks slightly odd.

#4

What exactly is the problem? Knowing specifically what is or isn’t working will help us narrow it down and know where to look.

Is the speed not changing at all? Is it changing, but incorrectly? Is the script throwing an error?
