Changing player model in-game

Hello everyone,

I’m currently working on a game in Roblox and I’m trying to change the player’s model during gameplay. I’ve tried a few different methods, but I haven’t been able to get it to work properly. Here’s what I’ve tried so far:

local model = workspace.midouzi:Clone()  -- target model
local player = game.Players:GetChildren()[1]
model:PivotTo(player.Character:GetPivot())
model.Parent = workspace
player.Character = model

The above code works but it requires some additional camera settings and, I have many custom elements in my character, I want to keep them.

I’ve also tried using ReplaceBodyPartR15, LoadCharacter, and AddPersistentPlayer, but none of them have worked for me so far.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can change the player’s model without cloning and changing the parent? I’m open to any reliable method.

Thank you in advance for your help!

maybe you should store values like Hugner and MaxHunger in the player instance and not the character ?

or if you want to keep them here you can get them before changing the player’s character and re apply them after the character changed

yeah, that will work but I have a feeling that there is a better way haha :rofl:
