Hello, i have a problem with copying the player’s accessories onto a smaller rig.

Here is the script:

local tool = script.Parent
local hammerModel = tool:WaitForChild("HammerModel")
local noob = hammerModel:WaitForChild("Noob")
local handle = tool:WaitForChild("Handle")

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local function weld(p0, p1)
	local w = Instance.new("WeldConstraint")
	w.Part0 = p0
	w.Part1 = p1
	w.Parent = p0
end

local function applyPlayerAppearance(player)
	local char = player.Character
	if not char then return end

	-- Body colors
	local bodyColors = char:FindFirstChildOfClass("BodyColors")
	if bodyColors then
		bodyColors:Clone().Parent = noob
	end

	-- Shirt
	local shirt = char:FindFirstChildOfClass("Shirt")
	if shirt then
		shirt:Clone().Parent = noob
	end

	-- Pants
	local pants = char:FindFirstChildOfClass("Pants")
	if pants then
		pants:Clone().Parent = noob
	end

	-- Copy Face decal
	local face = char:FindFirstChild("Head"):FindFirstChild("face")
	if face and noob:FindFirstChild("Head") then
		noob.Head.face:Destroy()
		face:Clone().Parent = noob.Head
	end

	-- Replace body parts appearance
	for _, noobPart in ipairs(noob:GetChildren()) do
		if noobPart:IsA("BasePart") then
			local playerPart = char:FindFirstChild(noobPart.Name)
			if playerPart then
				noobPart.Color = playerPart.Color
				noobPart.Material = playerPart.Material
				noobPart.Transparency = playerPart.Transparency
			end
			weld(noobPart, handle)
		end
	end

	-- Accessories
	for _, acc in ipairs(char:GetChildren()) do
		if acc:IsA("Accessory") then
			local clone = acc:Clone()
			clone.Parent = noob
			local accHandle = clone:FindFirstChild("Handle")
			if accHandle then
				local attach = accHandle:FindFirstChildWhichIsA("Attachment")
				if attach then
					local attached = false
					for _, np in ipairs(noob:GetChildren()) do
						if np:IsA("BasePart") then
							local match = np:FindFirstChild(attach.Name)
							if match then
								accHandle.CFrame = match.WorldCFrame
								weld(accHandle, np)
								attached = true
								break
							end
						end
					end
					if not attached then
						weld(accHandle, handle)
					end
				else
					weld(accHandle, handle)
				end
			end
		end
	end
end

tool.Equipped:Connect(function()
	local player = Players:GetPlayerFromCharacter(tool.Parent)
	if not player then return end
	applyPlayerAppearance(player)
end)

When i use it, the accessories don’t scale properly. So basically what i am trying to make is a hammer that is the players avatar instead of a noob model. do i have to change some properties in the humanoid of the noob? do i have to delete it?

Also, when i equip the tool, the noob tries to stand. and my player gets tipped over. soooo, i don’t know why that happens. someone please help. thanks.

This is a server-script in the tool by the way.

The best way is to test everything in explorer and find out how to copy it properly by yourself and then just do the same with script

but wouldn’t it be different for every player?

4

because some avatar items/accessories are bigger or different than others. and even if i knew the size, how will i do it?

try creating the hammer at a larger size (so that everything looks correct) and then doing model:ScaleTo() to shrink it
