How would you make player death animations?

Hey guys! I was just wondering how you would accomplish making death effects/animations on Roblox. For example, in the game 'Murder Mystery', the player becomes a "skeleton" when they die, and in 'Deathrun 2' players can choose from a choice of five different death effects/animations. Can someone teach me how this is done? I am not asking for an entire script. It would be very helpful if someone could just teach me the basics and explain its general concept. Thank you!

Put this in the script

function OnEntered(Player)
    while Player.Character == nil do -- Notice it does not use break.
        wait()
    end
    wait(1)
    Player.Changed:connect(function(Property)
        if Property == "Character" then
            if Player.Character then
                local Mods = script:GetChildren()
                for X = 1, # Mods do
                    if Mods[X].className == "Script" or Mods[X].className == "LocalScript" then
                        local S = Mods[X]:Clone()
                        S.Disabled = false
                        S.Parent = Player.Character
                    end
                end
            end
        end
    end)
    local Mods = script:GetChildren()
    for X = 1, # Mods do
        if Mods[X].className == "Script" or Mods[X].className == "LocalScript" then
            local S = Mods[X]:Clone()
            S.Disabled = false
            S.Parent = Player.Character
        end
    end
end
game.Players.ChildAdded:connect(OnEntered)

Now insert a script into this script and put

Character = script.Parent
Humanoid = Character.Humanoid
Torso = Character.Torso
if Character.Name == "Player1" or Character.Name == "NameHere" or Character.Name == "NameHere" then
function OnDeath()
    print(Character.Name .." has died")
    H = Instance.new("Hint", Workspace)
    H.Text = Character.Name .." Has died"
    wait(3)
    H:Destroy()
    X = Instance.new("Explosion", Character)
    X.Position = Character.Torso
    X.BlastRadius = 100 --Change this to how many studs/whatever to who dies Max: 100
    X.BlastPressure = 2500 --Set to super SUPER high if you want to ff kill players
    end
end
Humanoid.Died:connect(OnDeath)

I made that explode the player when they die

Wait remove the "if" Character.Name == "Player1" or and so.... then remove last end if you want it to do for everyone fireboltofdeath 635 — 10y

If you want I can also me putrify, and make the character burst into flames of course that would lag if I made them too big. fireboltofdeath 635 — 10y

You would make an animation, and then a .Changed event would check to see if the human's health equals zero. If so, run animation.

Can you show me how I'd use humanoid.Died? Does it have to be put with PlayerAdded? dpark19285 375 — 10y
