How to upload Texture without the Forbidden error?

Asked by 3 years ago

I've been working on 3d models for over a week, and today when I tried to upload them to roblox (via studio) a couple textures got the Forbidden error, I insisted and my account got temporarily blocked (now restored).

So I'm wondering: What am I doing wrong? The texture names were GWLeftTexture, GWRightTexture, the images were simple textures without anything but colors.

Can anybody help me with this issue?

Thanks

Well heres a few things:

  1. Do not post anything thats unrelated to scripting here. Please use the devforums next time (if you can)

  2. When I was making a mesh before, some textures didnt want to get uploaded , so i renamed them to something simpler and it worked. Depending on what you set your account age to is how loose you can get with your textures. Try renaming them to Left and Right, or something simpler.

  3. Roblox Studio only accepts one texture per mesh, making it hard to have multiple textured models. You may have to split the model in blender depending where the textures are (or whatever program you use) and then weld it back together in studio, so that error may be occuring from multiple textures.

Mesh importation isn't the best on roblox, I'd recommend building what you want in Parts and then welding / anchoring it together, it works much better.

Also, another (somewhat unrelated) tip, if you use unions if you build in parts, convert it into a mesh with the "Export" option in the context menu, and then import it back into a mesh part. It saves lots of resources.

Hope this helped, - infinite / gam3r
