Setting requirehandle to false and this is the result

[warycoolio]

You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

1. A friend of mine made sword animations for me, and I set Require Handle to false so I can weld the sword to the right arm.

2. The sword goes poof. Literally… https://gyazo.com/a417ec84fe0466eb5cfd599f34b162d7

3. I have been looking around for some weld scripts but I used my own.

local animation = script:WaitForChild("Animations")
local idle = animation:WaitForChild("Idle")
local run = animation:WaitForChild("Run")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:wait()
local Humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local track = char.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(idle)
track.Looped = true
local weld 

script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
	weld = Instance.new("Weld",char["Right Arm"])
	weld.Part0 = char["Right Arm"]
	weld.Part1 = script.Parent.Sword
	track:Play()
	
end)
script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	weld:Destroy()
	track:Stop()
end)
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.Jam.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	game.Workspace.Folder.Courage:Play()
end)

The reason the sword disappears is because you deleted the swords weld to the players right hand. At least that is what it looks like. (Though, I am pretty sure you did not unequip the sword in the gif)

[warycoolio]

I did not de equip the sword. It literally deleted the sword from my backpack and made me unequip it.

[CiAxe]

Are you using a tool for the sword?

[warycoolio]

Yeah, I probably should of used a full gif next time

[CiAxe]

If you are using a tool, you do not have to weld the sword to the players right hand, since the Tool will do that for you.

[warycoolio]

It’s so the idle animation can move the sword. With handle on, it would make one hand just not work

[CiAxe]

Then I would suggest not using a tool at all, and just use a script to weld the sword to the player’s character when the player “Equips” the sword.

[warycoolio]

The sword system I use works with tools I believe, are there any alternatives?

[CiAxe]

The only alternative I have used if when the player joins the game I just weld the sword to the player’s righthand. Then I would have a LocalScript that handles the sword it’s self, (when the player swings, Mouse.Button1Down I would play the animation that way).

[warycoolio]

So a onCharacterAdded function that would weld the sword to the character’s right hand?

local animation = script:WaitForChild("Animations")
local idle = animation:WaitForChild("Idle")
local run = animation:WaitForChild("Run")
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local char = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:wait()
local Humanoid = char:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local track = char.Humanoid:LoadAnimation(idle)
track.Looped = true
local weld 
game.Players.LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
	weld = Instance.new("Weld",char["Right Arm"])
	weld.Part0 = char["Right Arm"]
	weld.Part1 = script.Parent.Sword
end)
script.Parent.Equipped:Connect(function()
	track:Play()
	
end)
script.Parent.Unequipped:Connect(function()
	track:Stop()
end)
game.ReplicatedStorage.Remotes.Jam.OnClientEvent:Connect(function()
	game.Workspace.Folder.Courage:Play()
end)

Here’s what I got, same problem. This time, the sword doesn’t even appear.

[CiAxe]

Do this in a Normal script on the server:

--Variables Here

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
   player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
      --Code Here
   end)
end)

[warycoolio]

@warycoolio

end)

Same problem. I believe I should handle the idle animation on such on the localscript, so I left that there.

local weld 
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		weld = Instance.new("Weld",char["Right Arm"])
		weld.Part0 = char["Right Arm"]
		weld.Part1 = game.StarterPack.Sword.Sword
	end)
end)

[warycoolio]

Or, should I put the entire script in the serverscript?

[ScriptingSausage (Oob)]

When you equip a tool a RightGrip weld is added to your right hand that attaches it to your hand:

If you want it to weld the tool to your arm you can just modify the Part0 property.

[warycoolio]

Should I use a Motor6D instead, then? Because it was animated with a Motor6D
EDIT: I used a motor6d, and legit. same outcome.

[warycoolio]

Do I have to attach the sword to the arm, or something?

[warycoolio]

Oh wait, the handle just gets fixed after swinging the sword once…

EDIT: nevermind, this happens when the handle is on

one hand is holding it up, (the right arm) and the other arm is doing the idle animation

[warycoolio]

found a solution for this hand holding up, here’s the script

local NOHANDOUT_ID = 04484494845

local function DisableHandOut(character)
	local Animator = character.Animate
	local Animation = Instance.new("Animation")
	Animation.AnimationId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id="..NOHANDOUT_ID

	local ToolNone = Animator:FindFirstChild("toolnone")
	if ToolNone then
		local NewTool = Instance.new("StringValue")
		NewTool.Name = "toolnone"
		Animation.Name = "ToolNoneAnim"
		Animation.Parent = NewTool
		ToolNone:Destroy()
		NewTool.Parent = Animator
	end
end

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		DisableHandOut(character)
	end)
end)

put this in serverscriptservice
