So Roblox broke Local Music playing, or the ability to hear music from your ScreenGui. Is there any alternative that I can use until it's fixed?

Anyway to do it without FilteringEnabled? I don't want to convert my entire game to FilteringEnabled because I know nothing about it.

There are no good ways to do this without FilteringEnabled, and you should take the time to learn it. It adds way more possibility to your game, and it makes no sense to not use it- why would the client be able to wreck the game?

I know, I wish I could use FilteringEnabled, but it breaks everything.

So what shouldn't I do if I want filteringenabled to work? Can I use functions? Can I reload every player at once?

^ in FE you cannot replicate most changes from the client to the server
so most things that you do will only show up locally (on your side) but not the server
unless you have server scripts running the code

This is going to be difficult since my game is all about changing the colors of blocks...

So from what I gathered from the wiki, I cannot have any localscripts modify the workspace at all... but a serverscript can do that just fine? And how do I do that :Fireserver() thing? What does it mean?

Ok so I have a LocalScript that modifies the PlayersCamera... so I would use a remove event?

did you not read anything i said

EVERYTHING you do on local scripts will only appear ON YOUR SIDE
unless you communicate the decision to the server using remote functions/events

I know the concept of filteringenabled.. but I don't know how to manipulate it.

The player's camera can only be controlled through localscripts anyway I think.
