I keep on looking up how to add a walk animation to an NPC but all of the results won't work because it shows on Studio but when i play it on Roblox it won't show the animation and I want every player to be able to see it too

fervent lintel I keep on looking up how to add a walk animation to an NPC but all of the result...

gotta do it on the server

#

local ShopNPC = workspace:WaitForChild("shopKeeper")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local ShopAnim = ReplicatedStorage.Anims:WaitForChild("IdleAnim")

local animator = Instance.new("Animator")
local animationTrack = animator:LoadAnimation(ShopAnim)

animator.Parent = ShopNPC.Humanoid
animationTrack.Looped = true
animationTrack:Play()

#

i did this for my idle animation

#

its the same logic

#

but you have to have the walking anim

#

in this instance my anim is just in an animation object in replicated storage
