Maybe you need to remove the .Parent part?

if v:FindFirstChild("Head")  then
                    v:FindFirstChild("Head").Transparency = 1                
 end

It’s hard to understand where “Head” is located and the screen grab doesn’t really clarify anything. I assume that “Head” is inside one of those models? Are there only Models in the “Outfit” folder? If so, rather than GetDescendants() why not iterate the Models inside the “Outfit” folder and use FindFirstChild(), i.e.

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		local Outfit = char:WaitForChild("Outfit",3);
		local Children = Outfit:GetChildren();
		for i, v in pairs(Children) do
			-- if there are other types of objects in the folder and head is guaranteed
			-- to be a child of a Model then uncomment the next line
			--if not v:IsA("Model") then contiune end;
			local Head = v:FindFirstChild("Head");
			if Head and Head:IsA("BasePart") then
				Head.Transparency = 1;
				break;
			end
		end
	end)
end)

So you mean Head isn’t a model but a part ?

@dduck5tar

game.Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(plr)
	plr.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(char)
		local Outfit = char:WaitForChild("Outfit",3);
		local Children = Outfit:GetChildren();
		for i, v in pairs(Children) do
			-- if there are other types of objects in the folder and head is guaranteed
			-- to be a child of a Model then uncomment the next line
			--if not v:IsA("Model") then contiune end;
			local Head = v:FindFirstChild("Head");
			if Head and Head:IsA("BasePart") then
				Head.Transparency = 1;
				break;
			end
		end
	end)
end)

I just got back on and because FindFirstChild doesn’t work for some odd reason but waitforchild does

GetChildren

The issue is it’s not moving to the next line it stops at print(“Found”)

local Outfit = char:WaitForChild("Outfit",3);
print("Found")
for i,v in pairs(Outfit:GetChildren()) do
	print("OutfitFound")
	if v:IsA('Model') and v:FindFirstChild("Head") then
		print(v.."found")
		v:WaitForChild("Head").Transparency = 1
		print("Transparency")
	end
end

You may need to check it actually found “Outfit”". So instead of print("Found") do:

if Outfit then print("Found") else return end;

You must return if it is not found since there is no instance of Outfit. You can increase the timeout on WaitForChild() the second parameter is the number of seconds to keep trying to obtain the child. The problem here is this logic is contained in PlayerAdded which will be subject to replication issues if there is no chance for it to actually replicate fully before logic is applied. You could try a repeat until, i.e.

local Outfit = nil;
repeat 
	Outfit = char:FindFirstChild("Outfit");
until Outfit ~= nil;

But even with this method you may need a timeout to prevent an unyielding loop.

I fixed it had to remove a line
