How to change property of multiple objects / meshes at once?

#1

  1. What do you want to achieve? Trying to change the RenderFedility value of all the meshes on the map, however the only way I have found so far is changing it via code and we want to change the value permanently.

  2. What is the issue? We cannot figure out a way of doing this

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Tried looking for a plugin, tried searching Google, the Dev Forums, and more. This doesn’t seem to be mentioned anywhere

We’re really struggling with this - Please if you have any idea how to edit the RenderFedility value in the Studio without having to play test, let me know!

Do you mean change multiple objects changing property with 1 script? Well you can use pairs loop for that.
https://www.lua.org/pil/7.3.html

local Meshes = {} --Insert mesh directory here
local Meshes = workspace.Folder:GetChildren() --Or you can do this to get the mesh objects in a certain folder

for _, v in pairs(Meshes) do
    v.RenderFidelity = --Whatever
end

You can also use CollectionService if all the meshes won’t be in a precise folder.

If the meshes aren’t organized in a folder and you just want to loop through everything in the workspace, you can also use “:GetDescendants()”, which checks every object value.

for _, meshPart in ipairs(workspace:GetDescendants()) do
    if meshPart:IsA("MeshPart") then 
        meshPart.RenderFidelity = -- "Insert Value Here"
    end
end

Sorry, I should have explained a bit more!

We are worried that doing it through code will cause every single mesh to go under moderation. Is there a way to bypass that? Are we wrong in thinking that?

Thanks!

We’ve decided to approach this a bit differently - having it set this way wasn’t getting the results we wanted anyway. Thank you guys!
