Need help trying to debug why anim montage isnt playing

[xXMeisthabestXx]

Can someone give me some pointers on how to figure out why this anim montage isnt playing.

This is the montage that isnt playing. I used a print string to see if the skeletal mesh component was actually set and this is what I got

I got the reference to the component from my player character blueprint and I use this code to assign the mesh

I am not sure what information is relevant so if you need me to show you something else, please let me know

2 options:

Either , you need to set Animation Mode = Anim Asset and set a montage anim (a normal seq won’t work)

Or, create an AnimBP for it with it proper Default Slot set. (and set it Anim Mode to AnimBP)

Ok once I get back from work I’ll try that, thanks!
