Script says I don't own the gamepass I created myself?

Asked 1,188 views1 answers

Hi guys,

not going to lie, I took this script from a forum (It's literally the most basic script ever) because I refuse to code 12 lines if I can just copy paste it.

The script is ment to check if the player owns a gamepass, and then gives him a tool to his backpack and startertools. The script goes as follows:

local id = (Removed ID for privacy)
	local item = game.ServerStorage.GoldenArmor
	 
	game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(player)
	    if game:GetService("GamePassService"):PlayerHasPass(player, id) then
	        local a = item:Clone()
		    a.Parent = player.Backpack
			print(player.Name .. " has the game pass!")
		else
	        print(player.Name .. " doesn't have the game pass...")
	    end
	end)

I made my own gamepass on the game's page and put it on sale, it says I own it, and yet whenever I join to check the dev console, it says I don't own the pass??

why would you remove the id for privacy? lol, we can just view your roblox profile and see your gamepasses anyways.

Your script is probably not working because GamePassService is deprecated, use MarketPlaceService instead. Here's a new roblox wiki article into how to make gamepasses work using this service. I'll also leave the code which lies at the end of the article here:

local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
 
local gamePassID = 0000000  -- Change this to your game pass ID
 
local function onPlayerAdded(player)
 
    local hasPass = false
 
    -- Check if the player already owns the game pass
    local success, message = pcall(function()
        hasPass = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(player.UserId, gamePassID)
    end)
 
    -- If there's an error, issue a warning and exit the function
    if not success then
        warn("Error while checking if player has pass: " .. tostring(message))
        return
    end
 
    if hasPass == true then
        print(player.Name .. " owns the game pass with ID " .. gamePassID)
        -- Assign this player the ability or bonus related to the game pass
        --
    end
end
 
-- Connect 'PlayerAdded' events to the 'onPlayerAdded()' function
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
