The script incase you need it:


local char = plr.Character or plr.CharacterAdded:Wait()
char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart").Anchored = true


local mouse = plr:GetMouse()


local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera

camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
camera.CFrame = workspace.MenuComponents.CameraStartPosition.CFrame


local tweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")


local mainMenuGui = script.Parent


local mainMenuBG = mainMenuGui:WaitForChild("MainMenuBackground")

local playBtn = mainMenuBG:WaitForChild("PlayButton")
local creditsBtn = mainMenuBG:WaitForChild("CreditsButton")

local creditsBG = mainMenuBG:WaitForChild("CreditsBackground")


local loadingScreenBG = mainMenuGui:WaitForChild("LoadingScreenBackground")

local logo = loadingScreenBG:WaitForChild("Logo")

local loadingBarBG = loadingScreenBG:WaitForChild("LoadingBarBG")
local clippingFrame = loadingBarBG:WaitForChild("ClippingFrame")
local loadingBar = clippingFrame:WaitForChild("LoadingBar")


clippingFrame.Size = UDim2.new(0, 0, 1, 0)

clippingFrame:TweenSize(UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0), Enum.EasingDirection.InOut, Enum.EasingStyle.Quint, 5)


clippingFrame:GetPropertyChangedSignal("Size"):Connect(function()	
	
	loadingBar.Size = UDim2.new(1/clippingFrame.Size.X.Scale, 0, 1, 0)
end)


repeat wait() until clippingFrame.Size == UDim2.new(1, 0, 1, 0)

It seems to be correct. Is the part Anchored and perhaps put a WaitForChild?

#3

That error means that CameraStartPosition didn’t exist when the script ran. Either it was removed, you have another thing called MenuComponents, or it was still loading when the script ran. If it was removed, check that it’s either CanCollide true or Anchored, and check that it’s Archivable. If there’s something else called MenuComponents, just rename either one. If the part was just loading when the script ran or something, put use a WaitForChild like you did for most other elements.

When I added the menu to a baseplate it works but not at the game I’m developing for.

#5

It might be unanchored or maybe add “WaitForChild” if you haven’t or maybe it is parented to a different child in the model

Yes it’s both anchored and on WaitForChild.

#7

Is archivable on the part set to true?

I found the problem. It was because StreamingEnabled was on. Thank you for trying to help!
