Why won't my animation play [BUMP]?

Asked by 9 years ago

I'm not sure if I will get in trouble for posting because no one is answering on my first attempt. After some help from a few people (Big help form Redbullusa), we have come up with this script:

char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

-- You may delete the first two lines if they're already defined.
-- Be sure to replace the 'humanoid' variable to the desired Humanoid object in line 11 if you do.

SlashAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
SlashAnim.Name = "toolanim"
SlashAnim.AnimationId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=211308302"
SlashAnim.Parent = Tool
SlashAnimLoaded = humanoid:LoadAnimation(SlashAnim)

function attack()
    damage = slash_damage
    SlashSound:play()
    SlashAnimLoaded:Play()
end

It is in the default LinkedSword gear SwordScript. Tgis is the only modification in the script. Everything works very well accept one thing; The animation won't play! Here is the Animation on the site: http://www.roblox.com/Wrench-Swing1-item?id=211308302 The animation is a simple sword slash but is customized by me to swing at an angle. The priority is an action. It is not looped.

Any help?

Everything besides not calling the function is fine. Functions do not run the code inside unless they are called, as so;

char = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character
humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

-- You may delete the first two lines if they're already defined.
-- Be sure to replace the 'humanoid' variable to the desired Humanoid object in line 11 if you do. 

SlashAnim = Instance.new("Animation")
SlashAnim.Name = "toolanim"
SlashAnim.AnimationId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=211308302"
SlashAnim.Parent = Tool
SlashAnimLoaded = humanoid:LoadAnimation(SlashAnim)

function attack()
    damage = slash_damage
    SlashSound:play()
    SlashAnimLoaded:Play()
end

attack()
