Toolbox

The Toolbox contains a selection of models, images, meshes, audio, and videos made by Roblox or Roblox community members. The Toolbox also includes all of the models, images, meshes, audio, videos, and packages you’ve published or those published by articles/Group Games|groups you belong to.

In Roblox development, the term “model” can refer to any game element, not just to parts, groups of parts, or a Model object. Because Roblox does not restrict what game elements can be published and shared, this mechanism is a useful way to create and share scripts, remote events, constraints, and other non-visible game elements.

Sorting and Searching

Within any of the Toolbox sections, you can filter items by one of the categories above. Additionally, within the Marketplace section, you can click the button to:

  • Search items by Creator (the Roblox user who published the item).
  • Search articles/sounds and music|audio items by Sound Length to more easily distinguish short sound effects from longer background music tracks.
  • Sort items by relevance, most frequently taken, number of “favorite” votes, most recently updated, or highest rated.
