How would I convert a MeshPart to a Special Mesh? I have split MeshParts that must be positioned EXACTLY where they are in the beginning. I tried the following script and they won't keep their position:
for i, v in next, workspace.MyMesh:GetChildren() do
if v:IsA("Model") then
local c = v:FindFirstChild("1")
if c:IsA("MeshPart") then
local p = Instance.new("Part", c.Parent)
local m = Instance.new("SpecialMesh", p)
p.Name = c.Name
p.Position = c.Position
p.CFrame = c.CFrame
p.Size = c.Size
m.MeshType = Enum.MeshType.FileMesh
m.TextureId = c.TextureID
m.MeshId = c.MeshId
for o, pa in next, v:GetChildren() do
if pa:IsA('MeshPart') then pa:Destroy() end
end
end
end
end

MeshId cannot be assigned to from scripts. Also, don't use the parent argument. It is deprecated and is known to cause latency.
You can assign a SpecialMesh's MeshId. That's why I am using it.
No you can't.
Yes you can. Go check.
