[Solved]This animation button is not working. It is in starter gui, what is the problem?

I am making a T-Pose animation in my game. If you press a button in starter GUI you "buy" the T-Pose animation. It is not working. Please tell me what is the problem and how can I fix it.

Here are the scripts:

This is a local script inside a button of starter gui:

local repstorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local emote = repstorage:WaitForChild("Animation", 100)
local serverstorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage")
local price = serverstorage.Animations.TPose
local TPose = serverstorage.Animations:WaitForChild("TPose", 100)

script.Parent.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
    local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
    if player.leaderstats.Cash.Value >= price then
        player.leaderstats.Cash.Value = player.leaderstats.Cash.Value - price
        local anim = player.Character.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(emote)
        anim:Play()
        print("Success!")
    end
end)

Please tell me what is the problem and how can I fix it. Thanks!

you should play the animation from a localscript GoldAngelInDisguise 297 — 5y

include some print()s in your code and try to find the source of the problem. so far i can only think the if condition in your server script is false GoldAngelInDisguise 297 — 5y

I included a "print("Success!")" after "anim:Play()". It didn't print anything. StrategicPlayZ 58 — 5y

if script.Parent is a GuiButton you should do script.Parent.MouseButton1Click not MouseButton1Down GoldAngelInDisguise 297 — 5y

another possibility: WaitForchild() might be yielding the thread but not giving any warnings, remove the second arguments GoldAngelInDisguise 297 — 5y

Updated again. It shows one error in the output:| 21:16:48.850 - Animations is not a valid member of ServerStorage | even though there is a folder called animations in it. StrategicPlayZ 58 — 5y

Local scripts can’t access ServerStorage. Try using ReplicatedStorage instead. User#20279 0 — 5y
