Help with ViewportFrame

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hey,
Thanks for Clicking on my Post!
I am Making A "Pet Inventory" Where When you open an Egg, the Pet goes into your Inventory
and is Displayed in A ViewportFrame.

I Cannot Figure Out what I did Wrong
But When I Set the Pet to be inside the ViewportFrame,

It Looks Like this
Its A Grey Spot (Pet Colour Is Grey)

The Script I Use is

local newPet = Pet:Clone()
newPet.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
	
local petCamera = Instance.new("Camera")
petCamera.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPet.Body.Position - (-newPet.Body.CFrame.LookVector * 3.2),newPet.Body.Position) 
petCamera.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
	
TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame.CurrentCamera = petCamera

Thanks for Reading! :happy1:

Try this:

local function getLargestSize(part)
    local sizetable = {part.Size.X,part.Size.Y,part.Size.Z}
    local largestsize
    for i,v in pairs(sizetable) do
        if largestsize == nil then
            largestsize = v
        else
            if v > largestsize then
                largestsize = v
            end
        end
    end
    return largestsize
end

local newPet = Pet:Clone()
newPet.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
local largestPetSize = getLargestSize(newPet.Body)

local petCamera = Instance.new("Camera")
petCamera.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPet.Body.Position + Vector3.new(largestPetSize,largestPetSize,largestPetSize),newPet.Body.Position) 
petCamera.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
	
TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame.CurrentCamera = petCamera

thats what i did to make my viewport frame inventory work

let me know if this works

local function getLargestSize(part)
    local sizetable = {part.Size.X,part.Size.Y,part.Size.Z}
    local largestsize
    for i,v in pairs(sizetable) do
        if largestsize == nil then
            largestsize = v
        else
            if v > largestsize then
                largestsize = v
            end
        end
    end
    return largestsize
end

local newPet = Pet:Clone()
newPet.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
local largestPetSize = getLargestSize(newPet.Body)

local petCamera = Instance.new("Camera")
petCamera.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPet.Body.Position + Vector3.new(0,-largestPetSize,0),newPet.Body.Position) 
petCamera.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
	
TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame.CurrentCamera = petCamera

This is what happens

well, you just gotta play around with the camera position. here is my last guess

local function getLargestSize(part)
    local sizetable = {part.Size.X,part.Size.Y,part.Size.Z}
    local largestsize
    for i,v in pairs(sizetable) do
        if largestsize == nil then
            largestsize = v
        else
            if v > largestsize then
                largestsize = v
            end
        end
    end
    return largestsize
end

local newPet = Pet:Clone()
newPet.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
local largestPetSize = getLargestSize(newPet.Body)

local petCamera = Instance.new("Camera")
petCamera.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPet.Body.Position + Vector3.new(-largestPetSize,largestPetSize,largestPetSize),newPet.Body.Position) 
petCamera.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
	
TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame.CurrentCamera = petCamera

Hey, I Finnaly Made the Pet face the Correct way,
The issue is that it Is Pretty Small In the ViewportFrame.

Could you help me with this?

local function getLargestSize(part)
	local sizetable = {part.Size.X,part.Size.Y,part.Size.Z}
	local largestsize
	for i,v in pairs(sizetable) do
		if largestsize == nil then
			largestsize = v
		else
			if v > largestsize then
				largestsize = v
			end
		end
	end
	return largestsize
end

function addToInventory(Pet)
	local PlayerGUI = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui
	local SidebarGUI = PlayerGUI:FindFirstChild("Sidebars")
	local InventoryFrame = SidebarGUI.GroupOne.PetStuff.MainPetFrame.PetList
	
	local Template = InventoryFrame.Layout:FindFirstChild("petTemplate")
	
	local TemplateClone = Template:Clone()
	TemplateClone.Name = Pet.Name .. "s Template"
	TemplateClone.Parent = InventoryFrame
	
	local newPet = Pet:Clone()
	newPet.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
	local largestPetSize = getLargestSize(newPet.Body)

	local petCamera = Instance.new("Camera")
	petCamera.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPet.Body.Position + Vector3.new(-largestPetSize - 12,largestPetSize,-largestPetSize + 5),newPet.Body.Position) 
	petCamera.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame

	TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame.CurrentCamera = petCamera
end

yea i guess we could just shorten the camera distance a bit, also sorry for the late answer, i was asleep

local function getLargestSize(part)
	local sizetable = {part.Size.X,part.Size.Y,part.Size.Z}
	local largestsize
	for i,v in pairs(sizetable) do
		if largestsize == nil then
			largestsize = v
		else
			if v > largestsize then
				largestsize = v
			end
		end
	end
	return largestsize
end

function addToInventory(Pet)
	local PlayerGUI = game.Players.LocalPlayer.PlayerGui
	local SidebarGUI = PlayerGUI:FindFirstChild("Sidebars")
	local InventoryFrame = SidebarGUI.GroupOne.PetStuff.MainPetFrame.PetList
	
	local Template = InventoryFrame.Layout:FindFirstChild("petTemplate")
	
	local TemplateClone = Template:Clone()
	TemplateClone.Name = Pet.Name .. "s Template"
	TemplateClone.Parent = InventoryFrame
	
	local newPet = Pet:Clone()
	newPet.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame
	local largestPetSize = getLargestSize(newPet.Body)

	local petCamera = Instance.new("Camera")
	petCamera.CFrame = CFrame.new(newPet.Body.Position + Vector3.new(-largestPetSize*0.75,largestPetSize*0.75,-largestPetSize*0.75),newPet.Body.Position) 
	petCamera.Parent = TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame

	TemplateClone.petImage.ViewportFrame.CurrentCamera = petCamera
end
