Advanced Roblox Scripting Tutorial #14 - Animation (Beginner to Pro 2019)

Hey guys! Welcome back to another roblox scripting tutorial. In today's video I am going to be teaching you about animations and the animation editor in roblox. This is a very easy tutorial and there honestly isn't much scripting so it should be pretty easy to follow. Anyways enjoy!

Guys, if anyone is watching it today, the Animation Editor and Rig Builder have been moved to the Avatar category!

15:00 Start here if you already know how to animate. This is where the scripting begins

[ahmedmohamady]

If anyone watching this year is deprecated (Which means its outdated and shouldn't be used) instead fetch the animator in the humanoid like so:

"alright, for the lefties out there, we are going to do the left arm."
5 seconds later: "alright so click on the right arm."

If you want your animation to run when you press a key here's how you do it

Do all in Localscript btw

local LiftingAnimation = script.Animation

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local hum =

local LiftingAnimationTrack =

local UIS =



if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.R then



end

end)

For anyone whos confused as to why character isnt a child of localplayer, instead do
local Humanoid =
This will make it find a child named humanoid of an object in the workspace named the same thing as the player. Since the player model in the work space will always be named the same as the player, it will find the humanoid of the players model.
However if there are models in the game that have a humanoid that are named the same as a player who joins it will break the script. So i suggest u name the models or their humanoids names that cant be used as usernames. You can also do Humanoid.Parent to access the playermodel.

Yaass i don’t need to be afraid of scripting every obstacle can be overcome with patience

[BallChewer]

Thanks i already knew how to do it but you made it way easier

[niklauss]

YO THANKS I AM SO HAPPY i was watching other tutuorials and i couldnt understand it but when i watched u it worked

[not_eagleye]

For anyone wondering why your animation isnt working if you set it to work when u click a tool, it needs to be set to action priority or else it wont work, and for your custom idle the animation needs idle priority

[yelezi]

Thanks for staying with the scripting tutorials it really helps alot!

Hey there, if ur getting error like nil value or smthing

here :

local AnyVariableYouLike = script.YourAnimation
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
local hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

[Iocaluser]

local anim = script.Animation
wait(1)
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character
local hum = char.Humanoid
local animTrack = hum:LoadAnimation(anim)

animTrack:Play()
attempt to index nil with 'Humanoid'

[reality]

15:00 he starts to do the script (make sure you got the animation ID)

[ItzLoDz]

why mine like this
attempt to index local 'char' (a nil value)
???

[liamjiromasao]

There's an error called attempt to index nil "Humanoid"
But instead I put:
local char =
