Hello!

I am making server animations for the gun and followed @Headstackk tutorial. I am seeking for a way to hide the tool in first person because there is already a viewmodel.

Thanks !

You can set all of the parts inside the tool’s transparency to 1. When ever the user is in first person.

how do you detect if the user is in first person?

you can check the LocalTransparencyModifier of the player’s character’s children.
for example: Head.LocalTransparencyModifier, Torso.LocalTransparencyModifier etc.

you could do something like this:
LocalScript in StarterCharacterScripts

local character = script.Parent

while wait(1) do -- checks every 1 second
    for i,v in pairs(character:GetChildren()) do
        if v.ClassName == 'Part' or v.ClassName == 'BasePart' then -- detects if it's a part
            if v.LocalTransparencyModifier == 1 then -- detects if it's transparent - in first person
                print('first person')
            elseif v.LocalTransparencyModifier == 0 then -- if the player isn't in first person then they are in third person
                print('third person')
            end
        end
    end
end

sorry if there are mistakes since I haven’t tested it.
