Weld Not Working on R15

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
1

The goal of my script is to weld a knife, gun, and radio to the side of the player’s character.

R6 weld works perfectly. However, when I do the R15 weld, the parts do not welde and fall through the baseplate (they are non-collidable). So basically my problem is parts not welding to R15 LowerTorso and UpperTorso.

Here is my script:

local function Weld(a,b)
	local Weld = Instance.new("Weld")
	
	Weld.Part0 = a
	Weld.Part1 = b
	Weld.C0 = CFrame.new()
	Weld.C1 = b.CFrame:inverse() * a.CFrame
	Weld.Parent = a
end

Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(Player)
	Player.CharacterAdded:connect(function(Character)
		local Equipped = _G.DataManager.PlayerGetEquipped(Player)
		local EquippedKnife = Equipped.Knife
		local EquippedGun = Equipped.Gun
		local EquippedRadio = Equipped.Radio
		
		local Knife = GetKnife(EquippedKnife)
		local Gun = GetGun(EquippedGun)
		
		Knife.Parent = Character
		Gun.Parent = Character
		
		if Character:FindFirstChild("LowerTorso") then
			Knife.CFrame = Character:FindFirstChild("LowerTorso").CFrame * CFrame.new(0.9,-0.1,0) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(135),math.rad(180),0)
			Gun.CFrame = Character:FindFirstChild("LowerTorso").CFrame * CFrame.new(-0.9,-0.1,0) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(135),0,0)
			Weld(Character:FindFirstChild("LowerTorso"),Knife)
			Weld(Character:FindFirstChild("LowerTorso"),Gun)
		else
			Knife.CFrame = Character:FindFirstChild("Torso").CFrame * CFrame.new(0.9,-1,0) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(135),math.rad(180),0)
			Gun.CFrame = Character:FindFirstChild("Torso").CFrame * CFrame.new(-0.9,-1,0) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(135),0,0)
			Weld(Character:FindFirstChild("Torso"),Knife)
			Weld(Character:FindFirstChild("Torso"),Gun)
		end
		
		if _G.DataManager.PlayerHasItem(Player,"Radio","Default") then
			local Radio = GetRadio(EquippedRadio)
			
			Radio.Parent = Character
			
			if Character:FindFirstChild("UpperTorso") then
				Radio.CFrame = Character:FindFirstChild("UpperTorso").CFrame * CFrame.new(0,-0.1,0.8) * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(180),math.rad(45))
				Weld(Character:FindFirstChild("UpperTorso"),Radio)
			else
				Radio.CFrame = Character:FindFirstChild("Torso").CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,0.8) * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(180),math.rad(45))
				Weld(Character:FindFirstChild("Torso"),Radio)
			end
		end
	end)
end)

Thanks for reading and please reply any suggestions that you have that could possibly help me. Have a good day/night!

Hey there,
R15 rigs are built piece by piece. Although the character is added, the rig might not necessarily be set up yet, thus your welds fail. Have you tried yielding your script for a few seconds and seeing if the welds work?
