I want to animate a viewmodel but the animations will not show up. There are no errors. I have tried deleting the humanoid / using an AnimationController instead and switching the parent of my motor6d’s

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = script.Parent
local cam = workspace.Camera
local run = game:GetService("RunService")
local gun = game.ReplicatedStorage.Viewmodel:Clone()

run.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	gun:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(cam.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,0.5))
end)

gun.Parent = workspace

local LoadedAnimation = gun.anim:LoadAnimation(gun.idle)

LoadedAnimation:Play()

print ("Loaded")

Viewmodel

You can’t play ANY animation, unless you have a Humanoid present in your model, AND there must be a rig that the Roblox Animation software can verify.

Use an AnimationController to play your animations. Insert the AnimationController in the viewmodel.

Thats one of the solutions i tried. Did you read the post?

Have you heard of AnimationControllers? And yes ive rigged the viewmodel

#7

if you can send us a video. It’ll be great! Since there’s a lot of reason why the animation wont show up

Try adding a wait() first. That a most common problem that people experience

I forgot to mention “anim” in the viewmodel is actually an AnimationController
