Applying Shirts On Viewmodel Rigs

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

So what I’m trying to do is add a shirt to a Viewmodel rig, I tried parenting a shirt to it but it didn’t show up at all. I have read posts which mention that you need a Humanoid in it, my rig does have a Humanoid in it. The other parts include : LeftLowerArm, LeftUpperArm, RightLowerArm, RightUpperArm. I’m not very experienced with Viewmodels and would like to know why this isn’t working or I’m even doing it the right way. The cause might be silly.

Thank you for reading my post and hopefully someone can help me out here!

How are you trying to apply a shirt to it? Is it a player character? Did you insert in a Shirt to it? Does the instance or the shirt’s template doesn’t show up? I need more clarification.

#3

Do you have an UpperTorso, LowerTorso and a HumanoidRootPart?

I don’t think the shirt will show up without those, though I’m not 100% sure as I haven’t tried to create a humanoid rig with only arms.

Make sure the RigType of the Humanoid is set to R15. Other than that, a rig with only the body parts you want should work (you don’t need any essential body parts, not even head or torso parts, to render clothing on the existing ones).

Well, I parent the shirt to the model, and that usually applies it to every Character NPC or Character Rig. But in this case it wouldn’t show up.

Did you insert the correct shirt id in the ShirtTemplate box? If so, the error may be that you didn’t include a torso and arms for your character, according to this.

Alright so I tried what @emojipasta suggested and we got some progress, it does add the shirt but doesn’t apply it properly

What I rather got is the shirt template itself,
This is my hierarchy:

These are all baseparts my rig contains.

Try creating a proper R15 rig through the rig builder and deleting the parts you don’t need from there on.

I tried applying it on my own rig after removing all the parts I didnt have

And it does do it this time,
My hierarchy consists of the same children however
