How the heck do you make team only avatars?
I'm making this Vietnam War based game and I'm trying to get team only avatars. I made 2 models 1 for VC, 1 for USMC, but I made them as StarterCharacters. Help me with this please :(
This is the code I tried using, as its free modeled I don't understand it.
local TeamAppearances = {USAF = "3859337296",
VietCong = "3859340251"}
-- for character appearance-changing, this part never changes and always comes first, right before the UserID that you want to dress like
local TeamBaseURL = "http://www.roblox.com/Asset/CharacterFetch.ashx?userId="
-- since this script is in StarterPack, it'll get put into Player.Backpack, so script.Parent.Parent is the player
local Player = script.Parent.Parent
-- loop through all the teams and find the one with the same color as our player
for _, team in pairs(game.Teams:GetTeams()) do
if (Player.TeamColor.Name == team.TeamColor.Name) then
-- now find the team appearance in our table, if it exists
local teamAppearance = TeamAppearances[team.Name]
if teamAppearance then
-- we've got the appearance; now dress the player!
Player.CharacterAppearance = TeamBaseURL .. teamAppearance
end
end
end

[EDIT] - Changing Player's Character to another Character Model
Found a way how to do it with a model instead of a player's user ID. Basically, change the player's Character property to a model that you cloned from the server storage and clone in a few scripts to make the character work.
Normal Script:
character1 = game.ServerStorage.Character1
animationScript = game.ServerStorage.Animate
cameraUpdateScript = game.ServerStorage.UpdateCamera
function changeCharacterModel(player)
local cameraScriptClone = cameraUpdateScript:Clone()
local clone = character1:Clone()
local animationScriptClone = animationScript:Clone()
clone.Parent = game.Workspace
player.Character = clone
animationScriptClone.Parent = clone
cameraScriptClone.Parent = player.PlayerGui
--need to reconnect died function every time we make a new character so we're calling this again
clone.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
changeCharacterModel(player)
end)
end
game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
game.Workspace:WaitForChild(player.Name) -- wait for the character to spawn into the workspace
changeCharacterModel(player)
--change characters model when they die
player.Character.Humanoid.Died:Connect(function()
changeCharacterModel(player)
end)
end)
UpdateCamera script: (this is a local script)
workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Follow workspace.CurrentCamera.CameraSubject = game.Players.LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart
OLD ANSWER:
What the script is doing is changing a characters appearance based off another character's appearance. The ids in TeamAppearances are user IDs but it seems like either the users who have those IDs are banned or they don't exist.
If you want to use that script, find a user you like the look of and paste in their userID
For example, my user is https://www.roblox.com/users/20111088/profile and my userId is 20111088

Dude, it’s simple: DONT USE FREE MODELS / SCRIPTS. You usually don’t understand them, and sometimes they contain bad things. Look it up on YouTube, but nobody here is going to fix a problem with a free script that you don’t understand.
