Disable A Single Players Shadows

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

I Was Wondering How Do I Disable A Single Players Shadows And The Other Players Still Have Shadows, Like Arsenal.

And Is It As Easy As Disabling Shadows In Lighting

Like This:

You can set the player’s parts’ Transparency to 1 or turn off CastShadows on them.

It’s a bit of a workaround, but yes it’s possible & a bit simple

You could just reference this in a LocalScript inside StarterCharacterScripts, thru looping all of the Character’s Objects & checking if they’re a “BasePart” of some sort, then casting its shadow to false:

local Player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local Character = script.Parent

Player.CharacterAppearanceLoaded:Connect(function()
    for _, Part in pairs(Character:GetDescendants()) do
        if Part:IsA("BasePart") then
            Part.CastShadow = false
        end
    end
end)

Again, loop through everything but instead in the workspace this time & check if every Part is a “BasePart”

You can reference the script as a LocalScript parented inside the TextButton when it gets activated:

local Enabled = true --By default setting
local Button = script.Parent

Button.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
    if Enabled then
        Enabled = false --Changing to false

        for _, Part in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
            if Part:IsA("BasePart") then
                Part.CastShadow = false
            end
        end
    elseif not Enabled then 
        Enabled = true --Changing to true

        for _, Part in pairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
            if Part:IsA("BasePart") then
                Part.CastShadow = true
            end
        end

    end
end)

Are you trying to disable the shadows using GUIs?

#8

turn off GlobalShadows in a local script

#9 
local Button = script.Parent

Button.MouseButton1Down:Connect(function()
  game.Lighting.GlobalShadows = not game.Lighting.GlobalShadows
end)
