Just discovered this, pretty cool but I don’t like how it adds to the console every time you edit the RPC. I was able to replace print("[BloxstrapRPC] " .. json) with ContentProvider:PreloadAsync({"[FLog::Output] [BloxstrapRPC] " .. json .. "\n" .. HttpService:GenerateGUID()}) to make the RPC silent. ContentProvider:PreloadAsync will error for invalid asset IDs only to the log file and not the console, notably with an error message that includes the invalid asset ID, so I put the print and RPC prefix in an asset ID as Bloxstrap requires, along with a newline to delimit Bloxstrap’s JSON parser, and a GUID to make sure the final asset ID is different every time, because Roblox will only log the error for the same asset ID once. Maybe you could publish an update to the module to include this? I don’t see any downsides.
That’s pretty cool, and it seems to work perfectly. Nice job on finding this.
I would’ve considered doing it this way, but I do see a downside with doing this. It’s simply just not what ContentProvider:PreloadAsync is intended to do. It’s hacky, and therefore not safe, i.e. If Roblox internally changed PreloadAsync to validate URLs before further processing, then it would completely break it. I wouldn’t risk betting on PreloadAsync to keep working like this.
See the docs, you should be able to remove the small image. You might be able to create a lobby system if you use SetLaunchData to detect people joining through a Bloxstrap deeplink, but that only works if you don’t use reserved servers (not ideal, I know, my fault for not implementing it properly, sorry).
The images aren’t loading for me.
Hello. I was wondering if its possible to set large/small picture into thumbnail from roblox free models. If anyone knows the answer let me know. Thanks
Hello!
I have added this feature onto my game and its pretty good imo.
Altough SOME of the images i have been uploading dont load.
I’ve uploaded them from the Asset Manager, i dont know if that messes with it or not though.
Is there something i need to do, to make the images appear?
Only 1 of the 3 images i uploaded have loaded.
Either way thanks for this!
Roblox free model images must use Roblox assets, so you are able to use those image IDs
