#

max animation tracks error is exactly what it says on the tin - you did humanoid/animator:LoadAnimation too many times and it wont load more. the limit is around 255

Unfortunately I dont have anything similar in my game with the weight thing. For reference, you can just do this in a local script in starter character scripts: local anim: Animator = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Humanoid"):WaitForChild("Animator") function check() if #anim:GetPlayingAnimationTracks() > 256 then local tableString = "" fo...

Yeah I tried to remove the track and deleting them

#

but it still wont disappear

fathom kiln
#

track:destroy wont fix it

#

you can't remove them roblox doesnt have a thing for that

#

need to load the track once and use that

#

if you disable/re-enable the animate script repeatedly it will cause the error too because repeated animator:loadanimation on the same animation

#

the limit is with the animator/humanoid and is related to networking animations

Oh so I have to reuse the same animation and not create new one?

fathom kiln
#

yes

#

the same track

#

the animation object is the thing you put the animation id in, thats all it does

#

Thanks ive been trying for hours

fathom kiln
#

the animation track is created by the humanoid.animator

#

the animation track count, i.e max number times you can call loadanimation per humanoid (resets on character dies and respawn) is around 255

#

So if i still cant fix it another way of solving is resetting the player character?

fathom kiln
#

yes but that would be disruptive to your game most likely

#

using loadanimation every time you want to use an animation is very common mistake to see beginners make

#

Ok thanks for stopping by @fathom kiln

#

I think i fixed it now
