You can write your topic however you want, but you need to answer these questions:

  1. What do you want to achieve? Keep it simple and clear!
    I want the WorldModel to display my saved outfit’s HumanoidDescription.
    Also, if possible, I’d like to improve my script so it can save body parts and skin color as well.

  2. What is the issue? Include screenshots / videos if possible!
    image
    The rig should display my outfit’s appearance.

  3. What solutions have you tried so far? Did you look for solutions on the Developer Hub?
    I’ve tried to make a RemoteEvent that sends HumanoidDescription but I don’t know how to make the thing I want.

After that, you should include more details if you have any. Try to make your topic as descriptive as possible, so that it’s easier for people to help you!

You might have better luck by doing something like, when a new shirt (or hat or whatever) is applied doing:

  • HumanoidDescription.Shirt = newShirt

This will let you use Humanoid:ApplyDescription() over having to do all that Character.Head.Decal.Texture = …

local propertiesToExtract = {
	"Archivable",
	"BackAccessory",
	"BodyTypeScale",
	"ClimbAnimation",
	"DepthScale",
	"Face",
	"FaceAccessory",
	"FallAnimation",
	"FrontAccessory",
	"GraphicTShirt",
	"HairAccessory",
	"HatAccessory",
	"Head",
	"HeadColor",
	"HeadScale",
	"HeightScale",
	"IdleAnimation",
	"JumpAnimation",
	"LeftArm",
	"LeftArmColor",
	"LeftLeg",
	"LeftLegColor",
	"NeckAccessory",
	"Pants",
	"ProportionScale",
	"RightArm",
	"RightArmColor",
	"RightLeg",
	"RightLegColor",
	"RunAnimation",
	"Shirt",
	"ShouldersAccessory",
	"SwimAnimation",
	"Torso",
	"TorsoColor",
	"WaistAccessory",
	"WalkAnimation",
	"WidthScale"
}

local extractHumanoidDescription = function(description)
	local extracted = {}
	for _,property in pairs(propertiesToExtract) do
		extracted[property] = description[property]
	end
	return extracted
end

local reconstructFromExtracted = function(extracted)
	local description = Instance.new("HumanoidDescription")
	for property,value in pairs(extracted) do
		description[property] = value
	end
	return description
end

Here’s a simple 2 functions that’ll let you serialize the description, example:

local currentDescription = humanoid:GetAppliedDescription()
local toSave = extractHumanoidDescription(currentDescription)

-- later:

local reconstructed = reconstructFromExtracted(saved)
humanoid:ApplyDescription(reconstructed)

Then you could probably create a viewport using something like:

It’s kinda hard for me to understand advanced coding, I’ve tried to figure out how to do it with humanoid descriptions, but I can’t… I know the code is like spaghetti, but I managed to apply shirt and pants on the model

Accessories wont work because insert service doesnt work on client and im not sure how to fix this, i cant put the method in server script because i don’t know how to find the rig in the local player’s gui etc.

All I need is for accessories to work, and some additional stuff so body parts and colors save as well
