I'm working on a auto-updater(http://www.roblox.com/Forum/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=72376044) and I'm trying to figure what is wrong with it. So I took it and put it in one of my testing places. It worked perfectly. I turned that testing place into a personal server. It stopped working with no explanation at all.

Do personal servers deny InsertService? I don't understand how changing it to a personal server would break a script?

Do personal servers even run scripts?

Hmm....I guess you're right. If it worked before on the same place, that's the only reason it shouldn't work now.

I just tried it in Start Server + Start Player. Works perfectly there also. :/

Is there any way around this? Why the heck does this even happen?

@TheCap; then why doesn't this work T.T I need to figure this out by the end of today, since this is working with private servers. My BC runs out today.

I'm testing to see if InsertService only runs in LocalScripts..So far none of my tests have worked, so I really don't see the problem here.

The only thing I can figure out is that the Personal Server doesn't have a creator and so, because the model you're trying to insert isn't in the inventory, it isn't trusted. Try doing something like making a message show the creatorId.

I'll try that in a sec. I found something weird though while testing the local script possibilities.

For whatever reason, the local script was DELETED when I moved it to a player's PlayerGui. I'm looking into this..

Do you have any anti-exploit script running? That might be causing it to be deleted.

@chum;

I found this in one of the default personal server scripts

return (newPlayer.userId == game.CreatorId)


Being the creator isn't an issue :|

I also found that it does indeed insert a actual Model, but inside that model there is nothing in it..


@tech; I don't know of any anti-exploit scripts. Unless roblox secretly added one, I don't know any.

:o

Maybe it won't let you insert anything by anyone else other than ROBLOX while the server is running? It might be like this to prevent exploits. Try finding another self-updating script and see if that one works.

Disregard my previous post. So the model is getting inserted... is it trusted?

The only way to make a auto-update script is through InsertService >.<

Okay, disregard that post too. I keep on forgetting this works in a regular place >.<

Hmmm..I don't know anymore. It might be a glitch in the personal server scripts; it might not. I have no clue.

..This is so confusing and frustrating. It works in Start Server/Start Player. It works in Solo mode. It works on normal servers. But never in personal servers.

WHYY!

I guest BC-only features really aren't what they're made out to be.

I think the tools in the private servers actually have higher tier scripting power(e.g access to locked features). A tool that the place owner gets lets you take a screenshot of where you are and instantly makes it the thumbnail of the place..
