I’d like to load avatars into Roblox Studio.
Currently, the only way I’ve found to do this is using plugins, but all the ones I’ve encountered don’t provide any run-time functionality or aren’t customizable to the level I’m looking for.
How, without plugins, can I insert the avatar of a player (who isn’t in the game) into the game?
What do you mean? There is a plugin called “Load Character Lite” made by AlreadyPro that loads in any character just by typing in their name.
You could take the code from the plugin and put it into a script.
Plugins and their code are stored on your system in your Roblox files.
If you don’t want to rely on plugins, you can accomplish this by running some code in the command bar. You’ll need to enable HTTPService and use a proxy like rprxy.xyz.
Here’s the API:

If you aren’t familiar with HTTPService, you could look into it on the wiki or I could write you a quick sample of it.
Thanks, this is the kind of solution I was looking for.
There are several ways to do this without external APIs, which you could’ve searched up before posting.
That being said, any and all methods related to fetching the appearance of an avatar only fetches the assets they’re wearing, does not include the rig construct. If you want that, you’re going to have to find the MrGrey models off the Roblox account in the library.
