Body Position & Gyro aren't replicating? VR

[logieMaster23 (encrypt)]

i found a similar problem but this had no answer. Changes to body position not replicating to server

i think the issue is setnetworkowner - look at my modules being run on the server.

CharacterModule

local module = {}

local WeldModule = require(script:FindFirstChild("WeldModule"))

function module:create(player, character)

	Humanoid.RequiresNeck = false
	
	-- //for loop
	for _, part in ipairs(character:GetChildren()) do
		if part:IsA("BasePart") then
			
			-- //SetNetworkOwner
			part:SetNetworkOwner(player)

	end
	
	-- //for loop
	for a, joint in ipairs(character:GetDescendants()) do

	WeldModule:weld(player, character)

return module

				child.LocalTransparencyModifier = 0.75
			end
		end
		
	end)
end

the body instances are getting registered but idk why its not replicating. i took off setnetworkown on the server to test if it would work and it still doesnt.

another solution - which was found but not fully answered.

BodyGyro and BodyPosition not replicating to server

in the video before i sit in the car it was being controlled by the server as soon as the player sits in the seat it gives the player network ownership and server stops controlling the car im using a driver seat so i dont have to make my own input system this is ran when the player sits in the seat: (server) function component:giveNetworkOwner(player, model) if model == nil then model = self.model end for i, v in pairs(model:GetDescendants()) do if v:IsA("BasePart") or v:IsA("MeshP…

TL;DR: Make sure that every part of the body has network ownership set to the player.

It’s possible that when you’re removing welds it resets the assemblies’s network ownership to the server. Maybe set the ownership after making modifications.

If the client has ownership of all the parts, the parts are unanchored on both the client and the server, the physics from the client should always replicate.

Edit:

@logieMaster23

if BodyPosHead or BodyGyroHead or BodyPosRightArm or BodyGyroRightArm or BodyPosLeftArm or BodyGyroLeftArm then
	print("Body Loaded!")
end

Also, this statement should use ands, so that it prints only if everything is loaded, instead of only one thing.

Edit:

@logieMaster23

you solved it - it was the joints being broken after the parts were being setnetworkowner,

Nice, glad I could help!

imma test this.

Oh, I think I see the problem. Are you controlling the body parts with physics (ie the body movers) or are you controlling them by setting the CFrame directly?

@logieMaster23

Head.CFrame = Camera.CFrame * HeadVR * BodyGyroHead.CFrame + BodyPosHead.Position
RightArm.CFrame = Camera.CFrame * RightVR:ToWorldSpace(CFrame.Angles(math.rad(90), 0, 0)) *  BodyGyroRightArm.CFrame + BodyPosRightArm.Position
LeftArm.CFrame = Camera.CFrame * LeftVR:ToWorldSpace(CFrame.Angles(math.rad(90), 0, 0)) *  BodyGyroLeftArm.CFrame + BodyPosLeftArm.Position

I believe instead of the lines above, you should be setting the control properties of the respective body movers. Setting CFrames isn’t physics based, and network ownership is for replicating physics updates.

E.g:
Instead of

Head.CFrame = Camera.CFrame * HeadVR * BodyGyroHead.CFrame + BodyPosHead.Position

do

local headCFrame = Camera.CFrame * HeadVR * BodyGyroHead.CFrame + BodyPosHead.Position
BodyPosHead.Position = headCFrame.Position
BodyGyroHead.CFrame = headCFrame

This will cause the physics-based body movers to do the movements, which should replicate properly if the ownership is set to the client.

@BendsSpace

local headCFrame = Camera.CFrame * HeadVR * BodyGyroHead.CFrame + BodyPosHead.Position
BodyPosHead.Position = headCFrame.Position
BodyGyroHead.CFrame = headCFrame

This will cause the physics-based body movers to do the movements, which should replicate properly if the ownership is set to the client.

i tried this on each arm and head now the server is replicating

the client was handling it but not replicating now its showing what the server is doing

its staying in its given bodyposition = 0 on the vector and the cframe isnt working

-- //
if VRService.VREnabled then
	RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function(deltaTime: number) 
		
		-- //VR
		local HeadVR = VRService:GetUserCFrame(Enum.UserCFrame.Head)
		local RightVR = VRService:GetUserCFrame(Enum.UserCFrame.RightHand)
		local LeftVR = VRService:GetUserCFrame(Enum.UserCFrame.LeftHand)

		local headCFrame = Camera.CFrame * HeadVR * BodyGyroHead.CFrame + BodyPosHead.Position
		BodyPosHead.Position = headCFrame.Position
		BodyGyroHead.CFrame = headCFrame
		
		local rightCFrame = Camera.CFrame * RightVR * BodyGyroRightArm.CFrame + BodyPosRightArm.Position
		BodyPosRightArm.Position = rightCFrame.Position
		BodyGyroRightArm.CFrame = rightCFrame
		
		-- //for loop
		for _, child in ipairs(character:GetChildren()) do
			if child:IsA("BasePart") and child.Name ~= "Head" then
				child.LocalTransparencyModifier = 0.75
			end
		end
		
	end)
end

I would check:

• That the network ownership of all the parts is set to the client.
• That the client code is running on the client.
• That the RunService connection is being made

You can check these by:

• Playtesting
• Verifying that the values of the body movers are changing on the client
• If they aren’t, it means one of 2 or 3 isn’t true
• If they aren’t changing, try setting them manually. If this moves the part, then one is true.
• If they aren’t changing on the client and manually changing them doesn’t move the parts, then none of the 3 are true.

you solved it - it was the joints being broken after the parts were being setnetworkowner, so i swapped the for loops around.

UPDATED CHARACTERMODULE

local module = {}

-- //Services

-- //Modules
local WeldModule = require(script:FindFirstChild("WeldModule"))

function module:create(player, character)
	
	-- //Humanoid
	local Humanoid = character:FindFirstChild("Humanoid")
	
	Humanoid.RequiresNeck = false
	Humanoid.HipHeight = 2
	
	-- //for loop
	for a, joint in ipairs(character:GetDescendants()) do
		if joint:IsA("Motor6D") then
			joint:Destroy()
		end
	end
	
	
	-- //for loop
	for _, part in ipairs(character:GetChildren()) do
		if part:IsA("BasePart") then

			-- //SetNetworkOwner
			part:SetNetworkOwner(player)

		end
	end
	
	WeldModule:weld(player, character)
	
end

return module
