[bug?] Humanoid:ApplyDescription() doesn't put accessories correctly

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hi, I wanted to make a dummy that loads the players character, but the accessories don’t load in the correct places.

image

The script:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local WS = game:GetService("Workspace")

local dummy = WS:WaitForChild("Dummy")
local hum = dummy:WaitForChild("Humanoid")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
   local id = plr.UserId
   local newHumanoidDescription = Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId(id)
   hum:ApplyDescription(newHumanoidDescription)
end)

Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

it’s just roblox issues, don’t worry much about it, I’d also recommend you use a pcall to get the humanoid description since its a https request and it can fail

#3

if that detail is really important for you and you are only trying to render your character then just insert yours instead of applying the description

#4

No, it is a one player game.

well i mean, i don’t think there’s any other way of fixing it, try setting the character to unanchored because maybe that’s making the issue (probably not)

#7

That doesn’t work.

then it’s just roblox loading issues, it sometimes works or doesn’t, take a look at the new layered clothing, it either loads in the dummy or glitches

#9

I made my game R6, so layered clothing doesn’t load.

i was saying an example that happened to me, you can’t fix a roblox issue

also in the image I see isn’t that the untransparent humanoidrootpart or is it me?

btw, make a protected call when calling the function to get the humanoidappearance if you don’t want errors out of a sudden

#11

Yeah it is an untransparent humanoid, also how do I change this topic to a bug report?
This has been an issue for me for weeks, if not even months.

#12

idk, i also cant post bug reports, I think it has something to do with our experience level maybe? don’t know

#13

so how do i report this?

#14

i suggest you go to forum doubts or any channel for that and ask it in a topic because I literally have no clue lol

#15

i know a fix to this

how accessories work is they have an attachment that says where they go, like the head or something. if the character doesnt have that attachment it just creates a weld at attaches it to the part.

to fix: add all the attachments you need in the appropriate body part. it took me 30 seconds so you can do it too.
