GetUserThumbnailAsync() without UserId

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I’m trying to use GetUserThumbnailAsync() without UserId, bc i’m using StarterCharacter but idk how, thank you if you tried to help.

#2

what do you mean by your using StarterCharacter? do you mean you’re using a local script?

#3

I’m using a Custom Character and i want to get the UserThumbnail of it.

#4

GetUserThumbnailAsync returns an image of an actual player, not a character

#5

oh so you mean you’re morphing a player and then get the player thumbnail but the morph?

#6

Yea, that’s what i’m trying but i’ll use ViewportFrameGui i think.

#7

yes, it returns the image of the player and not the character

#8

Btw, in the CoreGui i found something called HeadShot, and that’s from GetUserThumbnailAsync() so i think that should help me.

#9

it wouldn’t work with GetUserThumbnailAsync() but you can take a photo of the morph then edit it and then upload as a decal

#10

It’s called AvatarHeadShot and it’s a ModuleScript with this Source:

local CorePackages = game:GetService("CorePackages")
local CoreGui = game:GetService("CoreGui")

local InspectAndBuyFolder = script.Parent.Parent
local Roact = require(CorePackages.Roact)
local RoactRodux = require(CorePackages.RoactRodux)
local Colors = require(InspectAndBuyFolder.Colors)

local AvatarHeadShot = Roact.PureComponent:extend("AvatarHeadShot")

local RobloxGui = CoreGui:WaitForChild("RobloxGui")
local CoreGuiModules = RobloxGui:WaitForChild("Modules")

local FFlagHideAvatarHeadShotInspectAndBuy = game:DefineFastFlag("HideAvatarHeadShotInspectAndBuy", false)

local LegacyThumbnailUrls = require(CoreGuiModules.Common.LegacyThumbnailUrls)

local HEADSHOT_THUMBNAIL_SIZE = 48
local HEAD_SHOT_URL = LegacyThumbnailUrls.Headshot

function AvatarHeadShot:render()
	local playerId = self.props.playerId

	local headshotUrl = nil
	if playerId and playerId ~= "" then
		headshotUrl = HEAD_SHOT_URL:format(playerId, HEADSHOT_THUMBNAIL_SIZE, HEADSHOT_THUMBNAIL_SIZE)
	end

	-- if headshot is nil, don't render the AvatarHeadShot. For example, this will be the case when
	-- the menu is brought up by InspectPlayerFromHumanoidDescription since only a player name is expected
	if FFlagHideAvatarHeadShotInspectAndBuy and (not headshotUrl) then
		return nil
	end

	return Roact.createElement("ImageLabel", {
		Size = UDim2.new(0, 48, 0, 48),
		BackgroundColor3 = Colors.GrayBackground,
		BorderSizePixel = 0,
		Image = headshotUrl,
		LayoutOrder = 1,
	}, {
		MaskFrame = Roact.createElement("ImageLabel", {
			Size = UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0),
			BackgroundTransparency = 1,
			BorderSizePixel = 0,
			Image = "rbxasset://textures/ui/LuaApp/graphic/gr-avatar mask-90x90.png",
			ImageColor3 = Colors.Carbon,
		}),
	})
end

return RoactRodux.UNSTABLE_connect2(
	function(state, props)
		return {
			playerId = state.playerId,
		}
	end
)(AvatarHeadShot)

yes but that would only return this
image
and not the actual morph

edit:wait i think that’s different lol

#12

Well, i’ll see if i can get a answer with that ModuleScript.

#13

so this takes an image of the player character?

#14

The function is what im trying to get, so i can use it in other things.

#15

have you tried it?
