Mesh Facing wrong direction

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I am trying to make multiple mesh parts appear but,
when the player puts their camera into a different position, the Meshpart is no longer aligned. How can I make it face the player?

script.Parent.WindSlashRemote.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(plr)

  local char = plr.Character
  local Hum = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
  local HumRp = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
  local VFx = script.Parent:WaitForChild("VFX")
  local Debris = game:GetService("Debris")
  local slash1 = VFx:WaitForChild("Slash1"):Clone()
  local slash2 = VFx:WaitForChild("Slash2"):Clone()
  local DiamondEffect = VFx:WaitForChild("DiamondMesh"):Clone()
  local folder = Instance.new("Folder",workspace)
  folder.Name = plr.Name..("Effects")
  Debris:AddItem(folder,100)
  local Anim = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Animations")
  local Sounds = script.Parent:WaitForChild("Sounds")
  local weld1 = Instance.new("ManualWeld")
  
  
  
  
  slash1.Parent = folder
  slash2.Parent = folder
  DiamondEffect.Parent = folder
  slash1.CFrame = HumRp.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,2,-5) 
  slash1.Orientation = Vector3.new(6.16, -15.6, 42.35) 
  slash2.CFrame = slash1.CFrame 
  slash2.Orientation = Vector3.new(-2.04, 28.45, 140.38)
  DiamondEffect.CFrame = slash1.CFrame * CFrame.new(0.2,0,0.8) 
  DiamondEffect.Orientation = Vector3.new(6.47, 5.34, 0.33) 
  
  
  weld1.Part0 = slash1
  weld1.Part1 = slash2
  weld1.C0  = weld1.Part0.CFrame:toObjectSpace(weld1.Part1.CFrame)
    weld1.Parent = weld1.Part0

end)

it might be hard to see but this is the player turning back

Change the orientation that you are using

Looks like you are using World Orientation instead of Object Orientation for your CFraming.

You can change the CFrame’s Angle property. By using the CFrame.Angle() method along with math.rad() to determine the angle’s radian…

Quick Example:

CFrame.Angles(math.rad(90),0,0) -- The x radian

Can you please elaborate on that?

Instead of using WorldOrientation Use ObjectOrienation
