What is the easiest way to upload over 500 individual models to Roblox?
I've dealt with trying to do it by hand (pure torture), so I asked on the scripters forum. The best reply I got was to make a Bot to do it, but I have no idea where to start in doing so. Does anybody have an idea of what I could possibly do to accomplish this?
Notes: In studio, I have a Folder Instance containing all the 500+ models.

Why do they have to be separate models? BlueTaslem 18071 — 8y

@BlueTaslem They are going to be loaded into my game with LoadAsset only when needed, and each one is needed individually. I'm doing to to solve the major lag issues in my game. Uglypoe 557 — 8y

Couldn't you just keep them in ServerStorage? BlueTaslem 18071 — 8y

I used to keep them there, but the models contained so many unions that the Server got backlogged and made the primary server-side functions of the game not function for 10's of minutes. Uglypoe 557 — 8y

well loading them in individually can also cause general lagg spikes upon begin spawned it koolkid8099 705 — 8y

That makes no sense. The server doesn't render unions - They're stored on the Roblox CDN. The server only sees abstract data, such as the fact that it is a union and where it comes from. There's no way that unions in ServerStorage caused your lag. User#6546 35 — 8y

@eLunate If it isn't the 500+ models stored serverside that is causing the lag, then I honestly don't know what is. (Besides the map, possibly). Uglypoe 557 — 8y

The server has to pull in the models when it starts. It doesn't have to render them, but it has to spend time setting up their meshes. That *could* explain slow-starting-time, but it shouldn't take minutes BlueTaslem 18071 — 8y

The server doesn't have to pull in their meshes until it has to manage them for physics in Workspace, surely. There's no point in having the meshes all fired up and ready if they're not being used until the physics solver needs them. User#6546 35 — 8y

You have to do them all one by one. ROBLOX doesn't have a function that will do it for you, otherwise it would've been stated in roblox updates/blog.
As said, a bot would do it, but that could cost you 10,000 robux, or more.

Well then go onto Group Recruiting Plaza and start trying to find somebody to do it. (OR google it.) Akward12345 0 — 8y
