# Set Preset {% hint style="info" %} 💡 **Tip:** If the character is a **Game Creator 2 character**, you can use the **On Model Change** trigger to detect when a preset has been changed. {% endhint %} The **Set Preset** instruction works similarly to **Set Part**, but instead of individual parts, it lets you apply **pre-made appearance presets** included with the **Sidekick Modular Character packs**.\ Presets can define combinations of parts, body shapes, and color themes, allowing you to switch between character looks quickly. ### Inside the Instruction #### Sidekick Character This is the character you want to apply the preset to. #### Type The **Type** field determines which preset category to apply.\ You can set presets for: * Head * Upper Body * Lower Body * Bodyshapes * Colors These presets are defined and included within each **Sidekick Modular Character pack**. #### Filter by Group Use **Filter by Group** to narrow down the available presets by **theme or category**, such as *Fantasy*, *Pirates*, *Modern*, or other style groups.\ This makes it easy to locate specific preset collections when working with multiple themed packs. *** ### **Example Use Case** You can equip a full **Upper Body preset** when the player equips an armor item. **Option 1: Inside the Item (Recommended)** The most efficient way is to add the **Set Preset** instruction directly inside the **On Equip** section of the armor item itself. This ensures that when the player equips the item, the preset is immediately applied, for example, switching the character’s **Upper Body preset** to “Fantasy Knight” to match the armor’s design. This approach is simple, clean, and doesn’t require additional setup or conditions. **Option 2: Using a Trigger** Alternatively, you can use a **Trigger** with the **On Equip** event to apply the preset.\ In this case, you should use **conditions** to check which item was equipped to ensure it matches the one you want to apply a preset for.
