Camera and using custom Player models

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’ve got these custom character models so that every time you respawn the game will pick a random model and make it your player model. However, when you go to play the game for some reason the camera is in the middle of the sky but you can see your character moving around. Any help would be appreciated cheers.

Server Script

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

local charactersFolder = ServerStorage:WaitForChild("Characters")

local function assignRandomCharacter(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(originalCharacter)
		local characterModels = charactersFolder:GetChildren()
		if #characterModels == 0 then
			warn("No character models found in the Characters folder!")
			return
		end

		local randomModel = characterModels[math.random(1, #characterModels)]
		local newCharacter = randomModel:Clone()
		newCharacter.Name = player.Name
		newCharacter.Parent = Workspace

		local newPrimaryPart = newCharacter:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart") or newCharacter:FindFirstChild("PrimaryPart")
		if not newPrimaryPart then
			warn("No PrimaryPart or HumanoidRootPart found in character model!")
			return
		end

		local oldPrimaryPart = originalCharacter:FindFirstChild("HumanoidRootPart")

		if newPrimaryPart then
			if oldPrimaryPart then
				newPrimaryPart.CFrame = oldPrimaryPart.CFrame
			else
				newPrimaryPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(Vector3.new(10, 0, 0))
			end
		else
			warn("HumanoidRootPart missing from new character for", player.Name)
		end

		player.Character = newCharacter
	end)
end

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(assignRandomCharacter)

Local Script

game:GetService("Players").PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
    player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function()
        local playerCamera = workspace.CurrentCamera
        playerCamera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
        playerCamera.CameraSubject = player.Character.Humanoid
        playerCamera.FieldOfView = 70
        playerCamera.CFrame = player.Character.Head.CFrame
    end)
end)

Please do not ask people to write entire scripts or design entire systems for you. If you can’t answer the three questions above, you should probably pick a different category.

You’re using CharacterAdded to attach the camera to the old character. Use a remote event so the server can tell the client when the new character has been setup.

Also you leak the old character on the server. You’ll want to destroy that.
