I didn't realize they dropped support until you've mentioned it, especially since it literally happened just this week.Īnd also, I was originally going to ask for help updating the skin manually as well, due to what I thought was a file attribute problem (but wasn't really the case, at least not with the texture pack I was messing around with the BTW.

3rd party launchers may work around this issue, but not the skins unless the game is modded to use UUIDs): The only issue is that all players and heads will use the default (your) skin but multiplayer isn't even properly supported anymore (the launcher fails to pass in a valid session ID so the game thinks you are not logged in singleplayer works normally though. Otherwise, if you use a custom resource pack you'll have to modify the skin inside of it). You have to use a resource pack since they dropped support for this happened just the other day but I never noticed it (I play in 1.6.4) because I'd long since replaced the default skin with my own (actually, I replaced the skin, as well as a few other textures, inside the jar since I modded it for other reasons and never use/switch resource packs. I was using the old launcher at the time. (Even in Vanilla although they do show up in versions 1.7.9 and up.) It could be a fault with my Minecraft, but I saw the problem arise before I attempted to manually edit the skin myself, and I still have not figured out the problem, and it's really strange to me.

But shortly since downloading the Better than Wolves mod, they only show up as Steve. I've been able to have different skins in versions prior to 1.7.9, albeit having to wait up to an hour. (You don't need the foundation in earlier versions just one texture will do.) Thanks to TMC for initially informing me of the new situation.

jar file, but I've managed to figure out a simplier solution with a texture pack. Also, I was planning on asking how to edit the skin manually in the. EDIT: TMC mentioned that support for, the source for skins in versions above 1.3 to just below 1.7.9, has been discontinued.
