LoadLibrary() not working

[EOASTUDIO]

Hello, been a while since I last posted here.

I took a PlaneKit from the toolbox, and it doesn’t work. This is for one reason.

What is this LoadLibrary for and what can I do to make it work?
Thanks all

LoadLibrary() is no longer supported, please read this post as it explains why and it also suggests some replacement ideas:

LoadLibrary is going to be removed on February 3rd

UPDATE This update is live as of February 3rd, 2020. UPDATE This has been postponed once more to February 3rd. UPDATE This has been postponed to January 6th; the post has been updated with the new timeline. What’s going on? LoadLibrary is a legacy mechanism that we previously used to provide access to Roblox-maintained Lua code. However, we haven’t updated the list of libraries or the libraries themselves in ages. There are three libraries: RbxGui, RbxStamper and RbxUtility; the first two are…

LoadLibrary was a global that was removed (linked by @mniao above).

If the module is using it, that means the module is pretty old. You will have to replace the function yourself:

We recognize that you don’t really want to spend a lot of time cleaning up uses of LoadLibrary. Usually the use of LoadLibrary is just for RbxUtility.Create which is a simple enough function to replicate, but some of you may be using RbxStamper or RbxGui . The good news is that it’s easy to replace LoadLibrary with the use of ModuleScript s and require . Here’s how to do this:

1. Download the attached file that contains 3 ModuleScripts in a Folder:

LoadLibrary.rbxmx (249.0 KB)

2. Insert it into your game into ReplicatedStorage by right clicking ReplicatedStorage, choosing “Insert from File…” and locating the file you downloaded.
3. In your script code, replace LoadLibrary calls with require as follows:

local RbxUtility = require(game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage"):
    WaitForChild("LoadLibrary"):WaitForChild("RbxUtility"))

-- call RbxUtility.Create as usual

Of course you are free to put the libraries into any other location in your game’s hierarchy, and you can remove RbxStamper / RbxGui if you only need RbxUtility.

That’s it! That’s all it takes.
