Why are my animations working in Studio and not in game Roblox?
Have you ever created an amazing animation in Roblox Studio, only to find it not working when you play the game? This frustration is all too common for many Roblox developers, but the good news is that the solution is usually simple to find. In this article, we will explore the most common reasons why your animations may be working in Studio but not in game Roblox.
The Creator of the Game and the Animation Must be the Same Person
One of the most fundamental reasons for this issue is that the creator of the game and the animation creator must be the same person. This may seem straightforward, but it’s crucial to ensure that the two are identical. If not, the animation will not work in the game. So, before you start, make sure you are both the creator of the game and the animation.
Check Your Animation Priorities
Another common reason is that your animation priorities are not set correctly. Roblox has a feature called AnimationWeightBlendFix that can cause issues if not configured properly. By default, this feature is disabled, but if you are using an older version of Roblox Studio, it may be enabled. Check your animation priorities in the Animation Editor to ensure they are set to Weight instead of Priority.
Is Your Animation on Sale?
Another possibility is that your animation is not marked as a Group-only asset. If it’s marked as Free, Public, or Not for Sale, it won’t work in the game. Mark your animation as a Group-only asset in the Publishing Settings to resolve this issue.
Check Your Animation Weight Blend Fix
As mentioned earlier, AnimationWeightBlendFix can cause issues if not configured properly. Check your animation settings in the Rendering section of your game settings. If the Graphics Mode is set to Automatic, try changing it to Manual or Hardware.
Save Your Place and Earnings
If you’ve just uploaded a game, your place and earnings may be reset. Save your place by opening the game in Roblox Studio and clicking File > Save. This will ensure your progress is preserved.

In conclusion, there are a few common reasons why your animations may not be working in game Roblox despite working perfectly in Studio.

Remember to check animation priorities, mark animation as group-only, check animation weight blend fix, and save your place and earnings. Happy developing!
