[RESOLVED] Animation Issues / Bugs on newer artifacts

[proper sierra]

We're experiencing significant animation issues with newer artifacts, specifically with artifact b9875. Some of the problems include:

• Reload animations cutting out halfway.
• Vehicle first-person shooting glitching out during fire.
• Trolley animations for heists not playing.
• Smashing glass animation for Vangelico not triggering.
• Peds not playing the correct animations or behaving correctly.

I've tested artifact 8102 as it was suggested to be the last stable version before these issues began. However, we’re still encountering some animation problems even with this version.

I’m looking for help identifying the cause of these issues. Others have suggested artifact versions might be to blame, but I find it hard to believe I'm the only one facing these problems. Any insight would be appreciated.

Reload animations cutting out halfway.
Is it a addon weapon?

[proper sierra]

Happens with both addon and base-game

Tried an addon pistol & rifle, as well as the weapon_pistol and weapon_assualtrifle

[thin schooner]

which client build are you on

[summer cliff]

Then i have no idea

[proper sierra]

client build, is that refering to release / beta / the other one? 😅

Downloaded qb_jewelry and got this error:

[thin schooner]

release, beta, canary

[proper sierra]

Currently on Beta

[thin schooner]

try canary

[proper sierra]

Will do, just hope all players dont need to hop on canary for this to work for them too

[thin schooner]

if it works in canary, then it will only be a week or so before fixed in all

if it doesnt work in canary, i would put bets on it being a broken resource

[proper sierra]

Gotcha, only thing is, I tested on I believe 8102 and it fixed the weapon anims but not the jewelery anim or the others

qbx_jewelry isn't our main vangelico heist, I added it just for a second script to check and it also failed

So the likelihood of both scripts being broken for the same job is low

[thin schooner]

oh and also, which game build

[proper sierra]

Chop Shop

so 3095?

[thin schooner]

3095 should be good

[proper sierra]

Currently updating artifacts back up to latest and I'll run in canary

[proper sierra]

3095, b9751, canary and still having the animation issues

Same error from the anim

[thin schooner]

9751 aint the latest 👀

10018 is the latest

[proper sierra]

oh shoot, I'll be right back 🙃

[thin schooner]

(every number increment is a change made, so quite a few changes between)

[proper sierra]

ah gotcha

Aighty, booting up into 10018

[thin schooner]

(so next change made, it will be 10019, just making clear what i meant xD)

[proper sierra]

I appreciate it haha

I guess they skip some numbers when multiple changes are made at once

[thin schooner]

yes

or just quick sucession updates

[proper sierra]

Damn, 10,000 changes, you'd expect them to be stable by now 😂

[thin schooner]

like, these were all made within minutes iirc

so, each change got a number, but not all got a seperate build

as u can see from the jump

[proper sierra]

yup yup

Aighty, loading in, hopefully this fixes all my issues and lets me sleep at night

I've spoken to some other server owners also on 3095 with b9751 with no issues which is why I tried that, I guess my luck isn't as good.

[thin schooner]

yeah, if it doesnt work on 10018, its 100% a broken resource somewhere

[proper sierra]

Gotcha, would you happen to have a rough guestimate on which type of resource would be causing this issue?

I disabled our anim menu but that didnt resolve it

[proper sierra]

Yup, bugged out on 10018

So its a resource issue, not a artifact issue

[thin schooner]

for that, not sure what resource would be blocking it

do u have any other scripts that use particles

[proper sierra]

Here is a video of the weapon reload 'glitch' i mentioned, this is also happening, not only on addon weapons.

[proper sierra]

not that I'm aware of

Actually, I do have one that shoot off some smoke & dust

if that counts

[thin schooner]

try stopping that and seeing

[thin schooner]

as for this, im looking through the natives to see what would do that

my best guess would be something call ClearPedTasks

[proper sierra]

Still happening with both smoke and dust script disabled

I'll stop some of my resource folders, reboot and see if it goes away, and try narrow it down

[proper sierra]

Aighty, disabled 3 folders the the weapon glitch stopped

gonna test the anim from the jewelery, is that works then I have somewhat narrowed it down

The weapon reload has been fixed, however, the animation is still scuffed

[proper sierra]

Hey bud, any ideas on what could be causing it, or are we still unsure?

[eager stump]

The only ones shown are the ones with a successful build, the others have a failed build

[eager stump]

Damn already at 10k

[proper sierra]

Yeah, I'm on 10018 and game build 3095 with these animation issues

[eager stump]

Maybe try 3258, just checking to see if it could be a game build issue

[proper sierra]

I'm still trying to figure out which resource is causing the gun reload, as I've narrowed that down to my standalone folder, but the other issues are still a problem

[thin schooner]

all it took was like 10 years

[eager stump]

Exactly

But we went faster from 88xx to 10k than qbox got 10 released resources

So that's something to note

[thin schooner]

went from 7xxx faster xD

[eager stump]

Somewhere there, I lost track after a few builds

[proper sierra]

Same issues on 3258

[eager stump]

You didn't change anything to trigger this?

[proper sierra]

Nope, I think I mentioned above but I downloaded qbx_jewelery as our main jewelery heist was having the same issue, so i wanted a second reasource to test to see if it was only mine

Its a fresh download and slapped straight into the server

[eager stump]

And you're running qbox unstable or?

[proper sierra]

Should be latest release, 1.19.0

[eager stump]

No, recipe, not qbx_core

[proper sierra]

We moved from qbcore to qbx, so I had to manually download the core

Didnt use the recipe

[eager stump]

Alright, I am guessing you have lots of extra resources as well then?

[proper sierra]

Correct

[eager stump]

What if you disable all of them aside from what you need for the server to function just enough to get to where you get the error. With that I mean, just everything qbx and ox and the rest disabled

[proper sierra]

I can do, I believe the weapon animation I posted a video of above is caused by something in our standalone folder, but the other anims im not too sure about, I'll go ahead and only run the base resources and see if it decides to work

[proper sierra]

Running the bare minimum to load me in and the error is still occuring

[eager stump]

I am not sure, the name is right, I see no issues in the code

Maybe have someone else test it to see if it's only you, your server or the script

[proper sierra]

Yeah, I'll have someone else test it

[placid ether]

Read the error

Some resources are probably loading assets and not Releasing them

[proper sierra]

I was only running bare minimum assets to get into the server but the issue continued

[placid ether]

hm

what gamebuild?

[eager stump]

All that info is already asked

Scroll a bit up

[placid ether]

oh oop didnt see gamebuild

hm weird

tf

[eager stump]

You can try testing in your server and see if you have the issue too

Otherwise I just wouldn't know what's up

[proper sierra]

Yeah, its been haunting me the last few days

Cant seem to figure out whats causing it

[proper sierra]

So I've found out that if I spawn a weapon into my hand using natives and reload, it works perfectly fine, but a weapon pulled out using ox_inv has the reload issue, could that mean something?

I still havent found a solution to the unreleased asset

[proper sierra]

Any idea if my above message may solve it, or why it works without the inv?

[eager stump]

Try posting this is in the ox forum support channel

If Linden is available to help I'm sure he'll know what your issue is

[proper sierra]

Already got a post there, hope it catches his eyes

[eager stump]

Post the info you got now with the weapon from ox inv

[proper sierra]

I did, posted the extra info

[proper sierra]

Found the issue, it was the nopixel_visuals / graphics pack causing the issues.. No idea why or how, but once we disabled that the scr_jewelheist played instantly

currently trying to look inside and see what on earth is running in there to cause it

[eager stump]

I wouldn't think of that lol

Might be something replacing

[proper sierra]

Yeah, glad I found it, of course it would be something I wouldnt expect driving me nuts

I appreciate all your help!
