I want to make parts of the character model invisible to one player but visible to all others. Is this possible?

Can you make certain object invisible/visible to a specific person?

Yes, it is possible, but you'll need to use a localscript in order to do this. Since localscripts are client-sided and normal scripts are server sided, you'll choose the localscript since it will only show for that player
Accessing the player in a localscript
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --won't work in server
and now, to get the character, you'll check if their character has loaded yet
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --won't work in server
local character = player.CharacterAdded:Wait() or player.Character
now, try to get some parts of the character, and if you don't know the parts of a character, then try using a dummy, and look inside of it
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --won't work in server
local character = player.CharacterAdded:Wait() or player.Character
local hrp = character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
and set the visible property to false
local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --won't work in server
local character = player.CharacterAdded:Wait() or player.Character
local hrp = character:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")
hrp.Transparency = 1
I hope you got an idea on what to do, and if you're still having trouble with local scripts, then I'll give you this wiki.

parts dont have a visible property, use transparency = 1
Oh right, I am so sorry
Thanks for answer. I also found out about LocalTransparencyModifier, with this command you can change the transparency for a specific client. This is a lot easier if you just wanted to make something invisible for one guy because now you don't have to replicate everything you want to client based manipulate onto a local script.
