"Attempt to Index nil with [module]"?

[NolanCYT (Him)]

Hello! I’ve been working on a new project and I’m making a loading script in ReplicatedFirst. But I’ve encountered an issue when trying to preload the images in the script.

Here is the error I encounter.

It says “Attempt to Index nil with Images” even thought the module is there.

Here is the ServerStorage:

Here is the script.

			end)

				error('ERROR: Applying the property, '..a..', to '..InstanceData..', Failed! ('..d..')', 2.0)

	Parent = Background,
}

I apologize if this was not spoken clearly enough. But please, if anybody could help I very much need it! Thank you!

Is the loading script a LocalScript? Local scripts do not have access to ServerStorage

[NolanCYT (Him)]

Yes, the loading script is local. Where should I move the Assets folder so the local script can have access to the modules?

[Opulace]

If you put the Assets folder in ReplicatedStorage or ReplicatedFirst, local scripts will have access to it. These storages are replicated to the client
