Help with changing material

Hi,

I made a script so it changes the material of a part. The problem is, is that it doesn’t change material.

script:

local GlowPart = script.Parent

GlowPart.Material = Enum.Material.Neon

Make sure the script is under the part you want to change the material
Also the script works fine

Is it a normal script or a local script?

Also if you could send a picture of the explorer would be helpful

its a server script. I thought it should be a server script.

also the part is a mesh. Its a part with a special mesh inside.

Oh thats why I think. I’m not 100% sure with meshes but does the mesh have a textureId property active?

no. There is no texture. Also I just trued it out with a normal part with no special mesh and it work. I think it’s probably because of the special mesh.

Yeah most likely, it happens with unions too. Your best bet is trying to use a meshPart? You said it was a part with a mesh as a child to it correct?

You might have to add a line to change the MeshParts UsePartColor to be true

GlowPart.UsePartColor = true
