Custom Achievement UI/Animation

[B0XSHARK]

Hello! I just wanted to know how to do the badge thing like how doors does it. They have custom badge UI, and I was wondering how could I do that? This is the first time I’ve seen a game do it before.

Thanks

What I’ve done is make a main function for badges (sometimes in a main script or in a separate script), and when it gets called (main script), or called with a bindable event (separate script), it then send a ui with the text I want, usually the badge title and description, as well as an image, then award the badge to the player.

EDIT: here are some resources, HasBadge (don’t want to send it twice), AwardBadge (actual function to tell Roblox they get a badge, use this after sending the ui animation), and GetBadgeInfoAsync (gets the badge info, so you can set the text).

On the client, use game.StarterGui:SetCore("BadgesNotificationsActive", false) to turn off the original badge UI. Then, use a remote event to tell the client to start your custom badge UI animation. To get the info of the badge, I recommend using the Badges API.

You need to use a proxy to interact with roblox api through roblox, I recommend roproxy.com.
That means, the url will translate to:

local url = "https://badges.roproxy.com/v1/universes/"..game.GameId.."/badges?limit=50"
local data = game.HttpService:JSONDecode(game.HttpService:GetAsync(url))
warn(data) --> {...}

This returns the data for all the badges in your game. Use this data for every player so you don’t need to get it again every time.

Just to clarify somethings, you should not use a proxy for this, especially when you don’t have to (see this).

An alternative is to make a dictionary, set the keys to all the badges you will use in the notification, then call the GetBadgeInfoAsync for every key in the dictionary, setting their values to {Name: "", Description: "", ImageId: ""}, then you can use this dictionary for the ui.
