Custom character not playing animations

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I’m trying to get the default roblox animations to play on a custom character that is being cloned from server storage. I can’t use StarterCharacter to spawn in as the character because each player can have a different starting character.

For some reason the animations just don’t exist. the character is fully rigged and has a humanoid(and works by setting the character to “StarterCharacter”)

I have seen a few people with this same issue and they have all said to set player.Character before parenting the character to workspace but that is not working and I don’t know why

this is the character spawning code if that helps

local CharEquiped = Save.Character.CharacterEquipped.Value
if game.ServerStorage.Chars:FindFirstChild(CharEquiped) then
	local CHAR = game.ServerStorage.Chars:FindFirstChild(CharEquiped)
	local character = CHAR.StarterCharacter:Clone()
	character.Name = Plr.Name
	Plr.Character = character
	character.Parent = workspace
else
	Plr:LoadCharacter()
end
