Humanoid:ApplyDescription() Doesn't Apply Accessories

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

It produces the same results. Do you know any other way?
Does it have an effect that the dummies are posed?

Sorry, I assumed that MrGrey was an R15 model. R6 Humanoids do not support scaling, so if you need to use an R6 model, you will likely need a brute-forced solution that I unfortunately do not have. Otherwise, if you can use an R15 model, the code I posted above should work.

The game is r6 so having r15 models would be kinda weird, but thanks. I might ask in a separate post with a more specific question

Sorry for bumping but since this is unsolved, I figured I may answer.
To apply description and accessories simply use this.

function Create(Character:Model?)
	local Description = Character.Humanoid:GetAppliedDescription()
	workspace.Rig.Humanoid:ApplyDescription(Description)
	for _,v in Character.Humanoid:GetAccessories() do -- Unsure about this, since GetAppliedDescription seemed to also apply accessories when using a roblox-made rig with the same body type.
		workspace.Rig.Humanoid:AddAccessory(v)
	end
end

If the accessories aren’t positioned correctly, it’s because you’re trying to apply accessories from an r6 character to an r15 rig (Vice Versa), I also recommend using the default built in rig builder.
Actually I don’t think the iteration loop is really necessary since GetAppliedDescription seems to apply accessories when using a roblox-made rig as mentioned above, but if you’re NOT using a roblox rig you can still use the loop. (That or if you’re getting description from userid.)

I actually figured the issue out a while ago but never really replied. I checked the attachments for the accessories and they somehow got completely messed up when my friend repositioned it. Going into a test place and re inserting a rig, moving it, and scaling it exactly how it is in the original fixed it. Definitely a weird case but it wasn’t anything script related iirc

It’s more on WHAT rig you used, using roblox official ones fixed everything, but like I said using R15 description on r6 does not work. On other hand CreateHumanoidModelFromDescription also seemed to work fine, you should use it too, I use it everytime a new player character appearance is loaded then store the cloned dummy model on a separate folder for later use.

Though for some reason, CreateHumanoidModelFromDescription doesn’t utilize new changes made to in-game player characters.

I used the same rig both times so it wasn’t an issue with the rig

I feel like this would be much messier for the same result

Not at all! It actually helped a lot for me! I didn’t have to clone character or get their humanoid description everytime I wanna use it! I’ll just store a 1:1 replica of them in a folder!
It only has one problem though! It makes a default Animate script inside the HumanoidModel but its doable.

Yeah, but if they update their avatar during the game it becomes outdated, and I’d argue that getting and applying the description is cleaner than cloning a rig and positioning/sizing it. I see what you mean, though.
