You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    wanted to make a screen gui with the own character on it

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    nobody cuz they use part as a viewportframe

--idk how can i code here

Please do not ask people to write entire scripts or design entire systems for you. If you can’t answer the three questions above, you should probably pick a different category.
ok
i already tried cloning the character into the viewport frame, but it doenst work cuz it doenst allow cloning character into it

#2

Can you show the code that you wrote?

you just paste the code there lol

#3

no i wrote nothing cuz im dumb and idk how i code :skull:

#4

You can use this Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId() to get the Characters look.

how do i use it? bc idk how can i use cuz im new to coding

#7

fake character for client… i already tried using something like this
local plr = game.players etc:clone()
plr.parent = viewport
it says attempt to index with :clone()

#8

Well the function takes a players ID as the first parameter. This will get the appearance of the player of the player ID. Then you would use Humanoid:ApplyDescription and use the Players:GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId() function as the parameter.

what is game.players etc?

im just writing stuff here to get to 30 word minimum ignore this line

#10

so thats mean that i gotta get the players ID? simple lol and clone the player apply description to the dummy ? (dummy means the viewport)

#11

@Coolest_LSELFAVER used that as an example to show the Character.

#12

game.players.localplayer.Character:Clone()

#13

Yeah, that’s basically how to do it.

#14

Here’s a script I made a while back. You need to specify the ViewportFrame used.

local viewport = yourviewportframehere
local char = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character
local cam = Instance.new("Camera",viewport)

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	for i,v in pairs(viewport.Character1:GetDescendants()) do
		v:Destroy()
	end
	
	for i,v in pairs(char:GetChildren()) do
		local v2 = v:Clone()
		
		if v2:IsA("Script") or v2:IsA("LocalScript") or v2:IsA("ModuleScript") then
			v2:Destroy()
		else
			v2.Parent = viewport.Character1
			if v2:IsA("Humanoid") then
				v2.DisplayDistanceType = Enum.HumanoidDisplayDistanceType.None
			end
		end
	end
	
	viewport.CurrentCamera = cam
	cam.CFrame = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-5) * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(180),0)
end)

*Noticed some mistakes in the code, I updated it

#15

btw how did u code that fast tho thx let me see if it works

#16

try putting the script into startercharacterscripts instead of starterplayerscripts

#17

where do i put this? im the startergui or the viewport frame or startercharacterscripts

#18

If you were to put it inside the viewport you would use it this way:

local viewport = script.Parent
local char = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character
local cam = Instance.new("Camera",viewport)

game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	for i,v in pairs(viewport.Character1:GetDescendants()) do
		v:Destroy()
	end
	
	for i,v in pairs(char:GetChildren()) do
		local v2 = v:Clone()
		
		if v2:IsA("Script") or v2:IsA("LocalScript") or v2:IsA("ModuleScript") then
			v2:Destroy()
		else
			v2.Parent = viewport.Character1
			if v2:IsA("Humanoid") then
				v2.DisplayDistanceType = Enum.HumanoidDisplayDistanceType.None
			end
		end
	end
	
	viewport.CurrentCamera = cam
	cam.CFrame = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer.Character.HumanoidRootPart.CFrame * CFrame.new(0,0,-5) * CFrame.Angles(0,math.rad(180),0)
end)

guys i use game.players.localplayer.playergui it will work same as a game.StarterGui?

#20

StarterGui is not the same as the PlayerGui. StarterGui clones all the objects you put into it into each player’s PlayerGui object when they join the game. Editing StarterGui while the game is running does not edit the gui in the player’s PlayerGui object.
