how do i make it so that when a GUI shows on the screen, the player will click a button and then wear models I’ve made when they click a certain button, (there’s 8 buttons). How would I do this? also I’m not sure if this is the right topic. Thanks for the help! :slight_smile:

I can’t show you exactly how to do it, but I can give a rough concept of how it could look like:

-- Client Side
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Event = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Remote Event")

Button.Activated:Connect(function() -- When that button is clicked
   Event:FireServer(Button.Name) -- Send over the button Name, Ideally you want it to be the same as you wearable items name 
end)

-- Server Side
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")
local Event = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("Remote Event")

Event.OnServerEvent:Connect(function(player, itemName)
   -- Then you can get the models you need
   -- Now you have the player who clicked it and the itemName
   -- You would just need to find the model and apply it to the character
end)

Hope this helps, sorry if the Server Side was a bit Vague but I didn’t quite understand what you needed. Clothing? or some sort of Armour?

no not clothing, literally just some models I’ve made like a sword that appears on the players back

You would need to use RemoteEvents if you don’t already know how the client-server model works, you should learn that because that is vital to making a game with FilteringEnabled (every game now)

Ah, I see well that’s a little more complicated in a way. You would need to look into CFrames and welds.

-- Step by Step

-- Clone the weapon
-- Create a Weld on the torso, and weapon
-- Mess around with the CFrames to get it exactly how you want it
-- Parent it to the player.Character

That should be a rough setup, hopefully this helps. You can learn about CFrames here and more info here. Here is more info about Welds. Good luck :+1:
