How do i force r6 using a script

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

requesting server sided support
here is what i have so far

local mike = game.Players:FindFirstChild("mikebramble591")
-- now i wish to make myself r6 rig type

i could do it in studio but its a r15 game and i wish to have myself only be r6 for testing

#2

Maybe an R6 StarterCharacter rig and then apply the humanoid description of the player?

#3

Why would you use a script to force R6 if there are game settings to force that?

#4

get r6 character from toolbox name it StarterCharacter and put it in StarterPlayer

#5

You have to use a StarterCharacter which is R6

#6 
local players = game:GetService("Players")
local getHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId = players.GetHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId
local insert = game:GetService("InsertService")
local loadAsset = insert.LoadAsset
local starterPlayer = game:GetService("StarterPlayer")

local function getR6Avatar()
	local success, result = pcall(loadAsset, insert, 1785197)
	
	if success then
		if result then
			local starterCharacter = result:FindFirstChildOfClass("Model")
			if starterCharacter then
				starterCharacter.Name = "StarterCharacter"
				starterCharacter.Parent = game.StarterPlayer
				result:Destroy()
			end
		end
	else
		warn(result)
	end
end

local function onPlayerAdded(player)
	local function onCharacterAdded(character)
		task.wait(0.5)
		local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
		local success, result = pcall(getHumanoidDescriptionFromUserId, players, player.UserId)
		if success then
			if result then
				humanoid:ApplyDescription(result)
			end
		else
			warn(result)
		end
	end
	
	player.CharacterAdded:Connect(onCharacterAdded)
end

players.PlayerAdded:Connect(onPlayerAdded)
getR6Avatar()

Here’s a script which automates everything, you won’t even need to insert a model named “StarterCharacter” into the “StarterPlayer” folder.

I hate to bump this topic. But I need to know: How do I use this?

#8

Well, that depends on what you want to do

#9

like, i want to force R6 with a script. The entire game.

#10

Game settings can do this for you without a single script:

Take a look at the Avatar Type setting.

AGAIN SORRY FOR THE BUMP

So I’m trying to force it using a script, example below

Player 1: Wears a glove only made for r6
Player 2: Doesn’t need the gloves but is forced to use R6
So, I want player 2 to stay without r6
I’ve got a way to do this, but I just need to know how you would do so with a script.
