viewmodel animation doesn't immediately play upon spawning the viewmodel

[plucky summit]

the video should show my problem. The viewmodel stays in the unanimated position for a split second before it animates, despite the code telling it to animate the moment it is spawned.

damn that background noise is awful

i apologize in advance

[unkempt crow]

ok

did you save you

like

load it in advance

[sage falcon]

are you loading the animations and arms immediately or before the player equips their weapon?

if you load it before this should resolve the issue

ok i tried that and it helped but theres still a split second where its in the no animation position

[plucky summit]

update: its fixed

simply preloaded it and removed the transition time (and added a tiny wait period before the viewmodel starts drawing)
