How do I get my animation code to play instead of not working?

For some odd reason the code that I use to play animations for my Player isn't working. Here is the script

01local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
02local Mouse = Player:GetMouse()
03 
04Mouse.KeyDown:connect(function(key)
05    key = key:lower()
06    if key == "g" then
07        local anim = Player.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Animation)
08    game:GetService("Chat"):Chat(Player.Character.Head, "BLESSED HAMMER!", "Blue")
09        local x = game.ReplicatedFirst.Hammer.Handle:Clone()
10        x.Parent = game.Workspace
11        x.Name = "NotIceHammer"    
12        x.Anchored = false
13        x.CanCollide = true x.CFrame=Player.Character.Head.CFrame*CFrame.new(0,6.5,4)*CFrame.Angles(0,math.pi/2,2*math.pi/9)
14        local pe = Instance.new("ParticleEmitter", x) --Make the Hammer look Blessful-ly
15        pe.Size = NumberSequence.new(0,2.62)
16        pe.Texture = "rbxassetid://1205087993"
17        pe.EmissionDirection = Enum.NormalId.Back
18        pe.SpreadAngle = Vector2.new(0,360)
19        pe.Lifetime = NumberRange.new(2.5)
20        pe.Rate = 100
21        pe.LightEmission = 0.1
22        pe.Lifetime = NumberRange.new(.5)
23        pe.Speed = NumberRange.new(.2)
24        pe.Transparency = NumberSequence.new(.7)
25        local bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", x) --To Counteract the gravity pulling the hammer down
26        bv.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge)
27        bv.Velocity = Player.Character.Head.CFrame.upVector*0
28        local bv = Instance.new("BodyVelocity", x)
29        bv.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge,math.huge,math.huge)
30        bv.Velocity = Player.Character.Head.CFrame.upVector*0
31        --Might Take Below Out--
32        while true do --Rotates it on its Z-Axis--
33            x.CFrame = x.CFrame * CFrame.fromEulerAnglesXYZ(0,0,0)
34            wait(0.01)
35        end
36        --Might Take Above Out--
37        anim:Play()
38 
39        --Make The Hammer Follow the Humanoid's Arms--
40 
41    end

The Animation Code used in this script is what I use for other scripts like this and they work just fine. I also have tried changing the Animation Priority to "Movement" and that didn't help either.

You have to actually PLAY the animation

`1`	`local` `anim` `=` `Player.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Animation)`

Instead of just making the animation a variable and not using it You have to play it like this

`1`	`local` `anim` `=` `Player.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Animation)`

`2`	`anim:Play()`

And if its a looped animation you stop it like this

`1`	`anim:Stop()`

But I did...Look at line 37 and even though I don’t think it matters I also tried putting it right after LOCAL ANIM = Player.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(script.Animation) awesomeestef1 -3 — 7y

Try putting some print() functions around and see if the event is actually being fired BerrySus 65 — 7y
