Mega-Parched Eyeball Head is setup incorrectly on R6 and R15 variants

Reproduction Steps
Wear the item Mega-Parched Eyeball Head - Roblox in-game in R6 and R15

Expected Behavior
The item is set up properly so that the R6 Variant uses SpecialMesh and the R15 variant uses MeshPart

Actual Behavior
Due to the R6 variant using MeshPart it has weird side effects like messing up the sizing of the accessory

It also doesn’t have a R15 variant causing you to be unable to wear it in R15

Thank you for flagging this. This is now fixed.

The accessory still seems to be broken, now the transparency is almost gone from the accessory, looking something like this in r15, and r6 is completely opaque now

I found a solution to which this accessory could be fully fixed, by adding double sided faces,
transparency set to 0 to avoid any visible artifacts, and using the surfaceappearance instance it previously used.


the surfaceappearance would do it’s job just fine if it is set to transparency mode and use the texture created for this accessory

I hope this helps!

Additionally, to fix the r6 variant, i think the accessory could use the same “meshpart” type of accessory instead of the classic specialmesh type of accessory.

(edit:)
I added this part to show why I chose the surfaceappearance instead of a transparent part with a special mesh:

Regular bricks with transparency higher than 0.01, will not be seen behind glass, meanwhile, every meshpart with it’s transparency set to 0 but using surfaceappearance on transparency mode will be seen behind the glass, allowing the accessory to look solid and transparent at the same time

We put SA Transparency back on. R6 cannot use MeshPart Accessories, and can only use Special Mesh Accessories.

The R6 version is no longer transparent, the handle of the SpecialMesh R6 version should be made slightly transparent so that there is parity between the R15 and R6 versions.
