How to make character transparent when they spawn?

Asked by

The goal of this script is to make it so the player is transparent when they spawn but I am not sure where I went wrong. Any help?

01local folder = script.Parent
02local player = folder.Parent
03 
04for index, lookchar in pairs(folder:GetChildren()) do
05    if lookchar ~= script then
06        lookchar.Parent = player
07 
08        player.Character.Torso.Transparency = 1
09        player.Character:FindFirstChild("Left Arm").Transparency = 1
10        player.Character:FindFirstChild("Left Leg").Transparency = 1
11        player.Character:FindFirstChild("Right Arm").Transparency = 1
12        player.Character:FindFirstChild("Right Leg").Transparency = 1
13    end
14end

Here, you are just making the parts of the character invisible and not the whole player. I just made a simple script as an example :

01game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player) -- Calls when the player joins
02 
03    local ServerStorage = game:GetService("ServerStorage") 
04    local UserId = tostring(player.UserId)
05 
06    local FolderExisted = ServerStorage:FindFirstChild(UserId) 
07 
08    if not FolderExisted then -- Checks if there is no such folder as the condition
09        local Folder = Instance.new("Folder") -- Creates the folder
10        Folder.Parent = ServerStorage -- Parents it to ServerStorage
11        Folder.Name = UserId -- Name it to the player's UserId
12    end
13 
14    -- The next steps will explain why we created this folder
15 
16    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function() -- Calls when the character is added
17        repeat wait() until player.Character -- THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT, it would not execute the further code until the whole character is added
18        local char = player.Character -- Gets the character
19        local charContents = char:GetChildren() -- Creates the table of all contents in the character
20        local HeadContents = char:WaitForChild("Head"):GetChildren() -- Creates a table for all contents in the Head of the player
21 
22        for i, Mesh in ipairs(charContents) do -- Runs a loop
23            if Mesh:IsA("MeshPart") or Mesh:IsA("Part") then -- Checks whether the thing is a MeshPart or a Part
24                Mesh.Transparency = 1 -- Sets its Transparency to 1
25            end
26 
27            if Mesh:IsA("Accessory") then -- Checks whether it is an accessory
28                Mesh.Parent = ServerStorage:FindFirstChild(UserId) -- Puts it to the Folder that we created above
29            end
30        end
31 
32        for i, Decal in ipairs(HeadContents) do
33            if Decal:IsA("Decal") then -- Checks if the content found inside the head is a Decal, here the Decal would be only the Face of the player
34                Decal.Transparency = 1 -- Sets its transparency to 1
35            end
36        end
37 
38    end)
39end)

Lemme know if it helps!

It's a ServerScript in ServerScriptService. If you want to make them visible, just revert the steps BestCreativeBoy 1395 — 4y

So, first, you want to find out if the player is R6 or R15. Then make all body parts Transparent. Place a Script in Workspace and follow my code:

01local DefaultTransparency = 1 --Modify if needed
02workspace.ChildAdded:Connect(function(Child)
03    local h = Child:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
04    if h ~= nil then
05        if h.RigType == Enum.RigType.R6 then
06            Child.Head.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
07            Child.Torso.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
08            Child.HumanoidRootPart.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
09            Child["Left Arm"].Transparency = DefaultTransparency
10            Child["Left Foot"].Transparency = DefaultTransparency
11            Child["Right Arm"].Transparency = DefaultTransparency
12            Child["Right Foot"].Transparency = DefaultTransparency
13        else
14            Child.Head.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
15            Child.UpperTorso.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
16            Child.LowerTorso.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
17            Child.LeftFoot.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
18            Child.LeftHand.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
19            Child.LeftUpperLeg.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
20            Child.LeftLowerLeg.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
21            Child.LeftUpperArm.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
22            Child.LeftLowerArm.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
23            Child.RightFoot.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
24            Child.RightHand.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
25            Child.RightUpperLeg.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
26            Child.RightLowerLeg.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
27            Child.RightUpperArm.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
28            Child.RightLowerArm.Transparency = DefaultTransparency
29        end
30    end
31end)
