How do I change a brick's parent and its MeshFile?

Alright so I want x to still be in p when I change the parent of p. I've tried this but it doesn't work:

function fire()
    local p = Instance.new("Part")
    p.Name = "Something"
    p.Position = script.Parent.Position
x = Instance.new("FileMesh", p)
x.MeshId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=1286103"
x.Parent = p
p.Parent = script.Parent

end

Please explain how I would keep the mesh with it's parent.

It looks like you're trying to parent 'p' to another part? TheGuyWithAShortName 673 — 10y

Want to know something interesting? A filemesh isn't an object. What you want is a special mesh with the MeshType set as a FileMesh


function fire()
    local p = Instance.new("Part")
    p.Name = "Something"
    p.Position = script.Parent.Position
    x = Instance.new("SpecialMesh")
    x.MeshType="FileMesh"
    x.MeshId = "http://www.roblox.com/asset/?id=1286103"
    x.Parent = p
    p.Parent = script.Parent
end 

fire()
