Hello everyone, lukewt1017 here. Today we will learn how to run gldblx.net, or even any other domain, on the roblox.com domain using the Caddy domain configuration software. This software has a special version written for Windows XP, for fellow XP users.

Introduction

To begin, you must open up the hosts file on your computer (located in \WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc) to redirect traffic from roblox.com to 127.0.0.1 (local webserver). Run Notepad with administrator privileges, open up the hosts file, and input the following:

127.0.0.1 roblox.com
127.0.0.1 www.roblox.com

To finalize the changes, open an elevated Command Prompt window (with administrator privileges) and run the following command:

ipconfig /flushdns

To remove the roblox.com redirects in the future, either delete them or add # before those two lines, then run "ipconfig /flushdns" in an elevated Command Prompt window again.

Caddy

For modern versions of Windows: Download
For Windows XP: Download

When you uncompress the Caddy.zip file, you will find three files: Caddy.exe, Caddyfile (no file extension), and proxy.bat. Open the Caddyfile file in Notepad as an administrator.

You will see this if using Caddy for modern Windows:

http://roblox.com, http://www.roblox.com, https://roblox.com, https://www.roblox.com {
    tls internal

    reverse_proxy https://domain.com {
        header_up Host domain.com
        header_up X-Forwarded-Host roblox.com
    }
}

If using Caddy for Windows XP, you will see this:

http://roblox.com, http://www.roblox.com {
    proxy / http://domain.com {
        header_upstream Host domain.com
        header_upstream X-Forwarded-Host roblox.com
        insecure_skip_verify
    }
}

Replace domain.com with a domain of your choosing. For GOLDBLOX, we will replace it with gldblx.net. To start the reverse proxy, run proxy.bat in the Caddy directory.

If you want to run the proxy without Command Prompt open, save this text as a VBScript (*.vbs) in the Caddy directory:

Set WshShell = CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.Run chr(34) & "proxy.bat" & Chr(34), 0
Set WshShell = Nothing

After this, you're done!

How to insert your avatar in ROBLOX Studio

First, open toolbox.

Then, Open models.

Go into search and find "Figure with Hat".

After you find it, insert it.

Find the figure in your game instance and click the + Icon.

It should now look like this:

- Figure 
      \
       Body Colors
       |
       + HAT
       |
       V

Click the + once more.

Click the Part's +

then, click the Specialmesh.

Say we wanted hat id 26:

Edit the Mesh ID from 32.mesh to 26.mesh.

Edit the Texture ID from 32.png to 26.png.

Go to http://gldblx.net/api/HatClient.php?hat=[your hat's id].

You may see text that looks confusing, it's XML.

Search for AttachmentPoint, take note of:

<X></X>
<Y></Y>
<Z></Z>

You'll need them.

Now click on the Accoutrement (Wizard Hat icon) and view its properties.

Find AttachmentPos and then enter the x y and z values in this format: X,Y,Z (Commas included).

Take the Handle(Part) out of the Accoutrement, make sure it's in the figure.

Remove the Accoutrement.

Style it as your avatar and you're done!

Simply remove the Accoutrement, it isn't needed.

Style it as your avatar.
