ViewModel Sword Animation Not Playing

[lor5s]

Hello, I’m working on a sword animation for my game and while it equips fine, none of the animations play.

This is not what I want.

Image of explorer:

LocalScript:

plrs = game:GetService("Players")
plrs.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Wait()
chr = plrs.LocalPlayer.Character
task.wait(0.1)
a1 = script.Parent.AnimationController.Animator:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.s1)
a2 = script.Parent.AnimationController.Animator:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.s2)
idle = script.Parent.AnimationController.Animator:LoadAnimation(script.Parent.idle)
script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
	chr = script.Parent.Parent
	chr["Left Arm"].Transparency = 1
	chr["Right Arm"].Transparency = 1
	idle:Play()
end)
script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	chr["Left Arm"].Transparency = 0
	chr["Right Arm"].Transparency = 0
	idle:Stop()
end)

The sword itself moves. Not the ViewModel arms.

Fixed it. I didn’t make the animations under a rig, which I thought wouldn’t matter but apparently it did. For anybody with this issue and this setup, make sure you move the tool into a rig and upload the animations from the tool under the rig.

Here’s what the animations look like!
