[SOLVED] GUI when graphics are low

Help and Feedback Scripting Support

#1

I want to make it so when a player has low graphics in my game, a GUI will pop up saying the game will not work with graphics lower than 3.
This issue stems from the weird problem where the 2D camera script I’m using doesn’t let lights appear with graphics under 3.
I’ve gotten the script to mostly work, I just need to make it so the script detects the number value. When I tried to make it run, the script was able to detect when a player changed their graphics but then it gave me this error:
16:07:56.936 Players.bringtixbackalready.PlayerGui.GraphicsFrame.Handler:6: attempt to compare EnumItem <= EnumItem
How can I make it so the script knows the number of graphics and can discern the value of it? Ex: QualityLevel3 < QualityLevel5

local GameSettings = UserSettings():GetService("UserGameSettings")
local Graphics = GameSettings.SavedQualityLevel
local GraphicsSettings = Enum.SavedQualitySetting:GetEnumItems()

local function onGameSettingChanged()
    while task.wait() do
        if Graphics <= Enum.SavedQualitySetting.QualityLevel3 then
            script.Parent.Enabled = false
        else
            script.Parent.Enabled = true
        end
    end
end

GameSettings.Changed:Connect(onGameSettingChanged)```

You need to turn it into a string remove the extra and then turn it into a number

LevelEnum = UserSettings().GameSettings.SavedQualityLevel
StringEnum = tostring(LevelEnum)
Result = string.gsub(StringEnum,"Enum.SavedQualitySetting.QualityLevel","")
Result2 = tonumber(Result)
if StringEnum ~= "Enum.SavedQualitySetting.Automatic" then
if Result2 > YourNumber then
-- Your script
end
else
return warn("Quality was automatic")
end

EnumItems have a .Value property, in this case they’re set accordingly to their number,

local GameSettings = UserSettings():GetService("UserGameSettings")

local function onGameSettingChanged()
    local Graphics = GameSettings.SavedQualityLevel
    if Graphics.Value == 0 then
        return -- Automatic, set according to how you want to
    end
    script.Parent.Enabled = Graphics.Value < 3
end

GameSettings:GetPropertyChangedSignal("SavedQualityLevel"):Connect(onGameSettingChanged)

It’s nice that your script is more concise than mine, but it still gives a similar error.
17:22:38.173 Players.bringtixbackalready.PlayerGui.GraphicsFrame.Handler:8: attempt to compare EnumItem < number

Try now, it’s cause I forgot to put .Value on the Enabled line

Thanks! now it works as intended.

Edit: While playtesting the script, I found that if the player plays with graphics lower than 3, the script will not notice it and only make the GUI pop up if they change their graphics. (less than 3)

That’s simple, run onGameSettingChanged below the GetPropertyChangedSignal line

local GameSettings = UserSettings():GetService("UserGameSettings")

local function onGameSettingChanged()
    local Graphics = GameSettings.SavedQualityLevel
    if Graphics.Value == 0 then
        return -- Automatic, set according to how you want to
    end
    script.Parent.Enabled = Graphics.Value < 3
end

GameSettings:GetPropertyChangedSignal("SavedQualityLevel"):Connect(onGameSettingChanged)
onGameSettingChanged()
