How can I disable the default "Animate" script in a spawned character?
I am trying to disable the default "Animate" script that automatically spawns in characters so that I can make my own custom controls & animations for a custom character. Neither of the two strategies I tried worked. Am I just missing some information about network ownership or replication? I thought this could be done on a local script.
BOTH LOCAL SCRIPTS 1.
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
character:WaitForChild("Animate").Disabled = true
end)
DOES NOT WORK.
2.
player = game.Players.LocalPlayer oldAnimate = game.workspace:WaitForChild(player.Character.Animate) oldAnimate.Disabled = true
DOES NOT WORK
With both ways (local scripts), the "Animate" script "Disabled" box is still unchecked when I look in the character model in the workspace when the game is launched.

For fix this use ServerScripts!
For first, insert a ServerScript(Script) in ServerScriptService and put this script:
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr) -- On player added get player
plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char) -- On character of player added get character
local anims = char:WaitForChild("Animate") -- Wait for script named as "Animate"
anims.Disabled = true -- Disable the Animate script.
-- Go to stop all anims in Humanoid
for _,Anim in pairs(char:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):GetPlayingAnimationTracks()) do -- Wait for humanoid and get all anim's in humanoid, after get humanoid and tracks stop all
Anim:Stop() -- Stop all anims.
end
end)
end)
Players.PlayerAdded - Detect if a player added in game (Only ServerScript)
Player.CharacterAdded - Detect character of player added
WaitForChild - Wait for instance
For loop - Loop to get all in a "table", and you can use this for re-name items... and more.
GetChildren - Transform children of location in a "table"
Examples:
-- WaitForChild
workspace:WaitForChild("Item").Parent = game.ServerStorage -- Wait for item and put it on ServerStorage
-- PlayerAdded
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
print("The player " .. player.Name .. " joined to game!")
end)
-- CharacterAdded
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
print("The char of player " .. player.Name .. " spawned!")
end)
end)
-- generic for loop
for index,value in pairs(workspace:GetChildren()) do -- Get all in workspace in a "table"
print(value.Name) -- Print name of all items in workspace
end
Hope it helped, Errors? tell-me on comments.

Solved your problems? put [SOLVED] in title or accept a answer.
The local script wouldn't work for the character, so heres my try which isnt in a local.
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
plr:WaitForChild("Character")
plr.Character.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
character.Animate.Disabled = true

If you don't care about not getting the default animations back, then you could have a script that actually replaces them with the ones you want, so you don't have to add a new script to run your animations.
But if you don't want to do that, then you can just have this in character scripts:
wait() script.Parent.Animate.Disabled = true
