Server Sided Character Tilting

[CXreeperbrine (ZiTou)]

I saw this video: Server Side Head/Camera Movement (R6/R15) - Roblox (Remote Events and Tweening)

I tried recreating it in Roblox for it to work with a character tilting system. Whenever I play it in a local server it doesn’t work and the other players look normal.

This is the local script

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")

local LocalPlayer = Players.LocalPlayer

local Character = LocalPlayer.Character or LocalPlayer.CharacterAdded:Wait()

local Humanoid = Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local HumanoidRootPart = Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local Torso = Character:WaitForChild("Torso")

local RootJoint = HumanoidRootPart:WaitForChild("RootJoint")
local Neck = Torso:WaitForChild("Neck")
local RightShoulder = Torso:WaitForChild("Right Shoulder")
local LeftShoulder = Torso:WaitForChild("Left Shoulder")
local RightHip = Torso:WaitForChild("Right Hip")
local LeftHip = Torso:WaitForChild("Left Hip")

local RootJointC0 = RootJoint.C0
local NeckC0 = Neck.C0
local RightShoulderC0 = RightShoulder.C0
local LeftShoulderC0 = LeftShoulder.C0

local RootJointTilt = CFrame.new()

local RightShoulderTilt = CFrame.new()
local LeftShoulderTilt = CFrame.new()

local LeftHipTilt = CFrame.new()

local DefaultLerpAlpha = 0.145 -- Lerping Speed

It seems your trying to get the localplayer from the script in ServerScriptService if this script is a server side script then you are not able to get the local player, instead try this to get the player and the players character

local Players = game:GetService("Players")

Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
 player.CharacterAdded:Connect(function(character)
  -- your code here
 end)
end

[CXreeperbrine (ZiTou)]

It didn’t change anything. Also the server script was wrong I have no idea how I messed that up mb.

[dogo8me2 (vincent)]

Are there any errors that are printing out in the console when you run the script?

[CXreeperbrine (ZiTou)]

No there is not, is it to do with the local script?

local Last1
while wait(UpdateRate) do
	game.ReplicatedStorage.Tilt.Root:FireServer(RootJointC0)
	game.ReplicatedStorage.Tilt.RightHip:FireServer(RightHipC0)
	game.ReplicatedStorage.Tilt.LeftHip:FireServer(LeftHipC0)
	game.ReplicatedStorage.Tilt.RightShoulder:FireServer(RightShoulderC0)
	game.ReplicatedStorage.Tilt.LeftShoulder:FireServer(LeftShoulderC0)
	print("WOKRING")
end

[dogo8me2 (vincent)]

@CXreeperbrine

print("WOKRING")

is it printing this out successfully?

[CXreeperbrine (ZiTou)]

Yes, so I’m kinda stumped on this. Events and modules scripts are new to me.

[dogo8me2 (vincent)]

@CXreeperbrine

I tried recreating it in Roblox for it to work with a character tilting system. Whenever I play it in a local server it doesn’t work and the other players look normal.

can you elaborate on what “local server” means? i havent seen this term used before

[CXreeperbrine (ZiTou)]

Its to test multiplayer in roblox studio.

[dogo8me2 (vincent)]

OHH, i see what you mean now. when you play it in a normal test does it work correctly?

[CXreeperbrine (ZiTou)]

Yes the characters dont tilt at all. I’ve copied their CFrame.C0 to the server script and a remote event but it doesn’t change their CFrame.C0 at all.

[dogo8me2 (vincent)]

Maybe try passing the character over aswell to, as looping through each player every 1/20 of a second seems pretty resource heavy and unnecessary

[CXreeperbrine (ZiTou)]

When you say character do you mean the model in the workspace from the server script?

[dogo8me2 (vincent)]

im talking about the localPlayer.Character

[CXreeperbrine (ZiTou)]

Sorry my brain isn’t working. How do I get the joint CFrames from the character? And should I send the remote events inside of it?
