Viewmodel effects not visible

I have a simple FPS model
I’d like to have:

  • A particle emitter for muzzle flash
  • A pointlight for said muzzle flash
  • A beam for a bullet tracer effect

Yet ingame, none of these appear at all, despite them being visible in studio

(Proof of working in studio, beam is instanced by script)

(Proof of effects not visible while shooting)

I dont believe this is a scripting problem necessarily, maybe something implemented by roblox i need to cirumvent?

Could you create the effects with a LocalScript and workspace, is it practically the same result?

The beam effect is parented to the workspace, and is made with a localscript
dont see why the other 2 would work
