How to create a inventory system which shows models

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

Hello! I am quite new to scripting and have a system where you can break objects and they will go into your inventory, however since they are models they wont show in my inventory. Does anyone know a way to fix this? All help is appreciated <3

This is more of an API question rather than a scripting question.

Anything that is not a Tool or HopperBin will be rejected from showing in the backpack. You can either turn your model into a tool or create your own inventory system to accomplish this.

i have one idea maybe you could make a new backpack and and when you break the parts they get sent to a folder and the folder sends the items to the new backpack

#5

umm how exactly would i do that? i am not very good at scripting.

#6

use instance.new for backpack and parent the parts from the folder into the backpack

What would i set the for the parent of backpack?

#8

game.Players.LocalPlayer and try to destroy your real backpack i also recommend do something like this: when you break a part it gets sent to a folder then your gui gets the parts/models in the folder and shows them on the gui

#9

but it will show on the gui you still would need to make it a tool

#10

game.players.localplayer doesnt work its a server script…

#11

then use the second method when you break a part it gets sent to a folder then your gui gets the parts/models in the folder and shows them on the gui

#12

alright i have it so it goes towards a folder, how would i make it so the objects show on the ui?

#13

i cant tell you how to do everything first you got to know how to script at least a little you should be able to do this on your own

#14

would i like do :GetChildren and then duplicate a frame from replicated storage and change the text to the models name?

#15

i recommend you use chat gpt ai for some scripts

#16

wait what do you mean chat gpt ai??

#17

one question what is this inventory used for anyway and chat gpt is an ai that can script for you just tell it what to do

#18

basically im making a sort of survival game and then later im going to make you able to build with the items in your inventory
