Change player rig upon join

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hi,

I’m trying to make it so that when a player joins the game, it loads them with a rig. I put it in the package, but it says the package is not a valid member of the humanoid description. If I do put in the custom IDS of every body part, it doesn’t load either.

What am I doing wrong?

ServerScriptService:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAppearanceLoaded:Connect(function(character)
		local humanoid = character:FindFirstChildOfClass("Humanoid")
		if not humanoid then return end

		local description = humanoid:GetAppliedDescription()

		description.Head = 0
		description.Torso = 0
		description.LeftArm = 0
		description.RightArm = 0
		description.LeftLeg = 0
		description.RightLeg = 0
		description.Package = 86500078

		humanoid:ApplyDescription(description)
	end)
end)

I also attempted cloning the rig from replicated storage, but another issue occurs which makes my character not move at all.

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local defaultRig = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("DefaultCharacter")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
		wait()

		local clonedRig = defaultRig:Clone()
		clonedRig.Name = player.Name
		clonedRig:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(character:GetPrimaryPartCFrame())

		player.Character = clonedRig
		clonedRig.Parent = workspace

		character:Destroy()
	end)
end)

It’s exactly as it says, there is no “package” property in humanoid descriptions.

You have to get the ID for each of the limb of the package instead.

You could rename the rig to ‘StarterCharacter’ and place it in the StarterPlayer instead of ReplicatedStorage. That should avoid the need for any scripts.
