GUI gets deleted after changing player's character

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

I have this script which changes the player’s avatar (character) for another one.

The thing is, when the change occurs, the GUI on game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.PlayerGui gets deleted.

Note that I can’t clone it; when I do, the Viewport Frame’s Cameras as well as local scripts, for some reason, get deleted.

local Debris = game:GetService("Debris")

local Camera = game:GetService("Workspace").CurrentCamera
local Player = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local Character = Player.Character
local NewCharacter
local Avatar

while true do wait()
        for _, v in pairs (script.Parent:GetDescendants()) do
                if v:IsA("TextButton") then
                        v.MouseButton1Up:Connect(function()
                                NewCharacter = v.Parent:FindFirstChildOfClass("Model"):Clone()

                                Avatar = Instance.new("StringValue")
                                Avatar.Name = "Avatar"
                                Avatar.Value = NewCharacter.Name
                                Avatar.Parent = Player.leaderstats

                                NewCharacter.Parent = game:GetService("Workspace")
                                NewCharacter.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
                                NewCharacter.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = false
                                NewCharacter.Name = Character.Name

                                Debris:AddItem(Character, 0.5)

                                Player.Character = NewCharacter
                                Camera.CameraSubject = NewCharacter
                        end)
                end
        end

        Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid").Died:Connect(function()
                if Avatar.Value ~= nil then
                        for _, v in pairs (script.Parent:GetDescendants()) do
                                if v.Name == Avatar.Value then
                                        NewCharacter = v:Clone()
                                        NewCharacter.Parent = game:GetService("Workspace")
                                        NewCharacter.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame = Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame
                                        NewCharacter.HumanoidRootPart.Anchored = false
                                        NewCharacter.Name = Character.Name

                                        Debris:AddItem(Character, 0.5)

                                        Player.Character = NewCharacter
                                        Camera.CameraSubject = NewCharacter
                                end
                        end
                end
        end)
end

That was the main problem, although I still have one left; whenever the player changes character, it won’t do animations when walking, jumping, or idlying anymore.

Just for understanding, you are trying to make a morph gui?

#3

go to your ScreenGui and make sure ResetOnSpawn is off

It was set to on.

I set it to off and now whenever I change characters Studio crashes.

#5

yes sorry i didn’t read the whole script but the reson behind the crash it’s you making alot of connection

remove the while loop to fix the issue

#6

Tysm! That worked rather perfectly :3

Btw, do you have a clue about why does this happen?

#7

ye there’s localscript insiad your character called Animate make sure to clone it from the original character and place it into the new one

#8

Health and Animate scripts are already there but it still isn’t working.

@Ahdlibya Nevermind, now that works fine. The only issue is that the character isn’t respawning after HP goes down to 0
