Ive been dealing with an issue for a while now of more player models not working with my HD skins, I'm hosting them on imgur and its not down, so im confused, I'm using version 1.12.2 (Both mod versions have the same issue for 1.12.2)
Every time i change the skin model it appears as steve.
If anyone could help itd be perfect


Edit: Issue was resolved, if youre hosting on imgur apparently theyre changing how they host so try to use discord or something else!

It seems they're changing some things with how they host images your best bet is to try hosting off discord instead but that's also being a bit weird on occasion and sometimes only allowing it for 24 hours but that's the best information that I've been able to find in the official discord for more player models

How did you get it to be fixed? I've been using discord but for some reason after a day or two the skin will break and go to becoming a steve. Also sometimes removing the webp from the link seems to help keep the skins from breaking, however, it's also only extends it's lifetime for a day or two more.

Apparently whenever it breaks you can just reinput the link. Not a tech expert but I believe it could be related to discord "archiving" the skins in a way to save space.

Its the hosting service! If youre using imgur try to use discord, if you cant experiment with other hosting services

I'm not sure vanilla MC supports greater than 64x64 pngs for player skins (although BR goes to 128x128 IIRC).

Attempting to ling to a file MC views as illegitimate would be expected to revert to the defauilt 'Steve' skin, which seems to be what you are describing.

With the report of someone else having the problem that would seem to point to either the mod or its interaction with MC.

No idea is any of these will work, but you may wish to try (assuming you've not already):

Testing an older version of the mod

Testing with an older version of MC

Testing the last combination of mod and MC versions you know worked (both with a skin that previously worked and a new one)

Testing a skin hosted other than at IMGUR (probably a longshot)

As noted, please publish if you find what is going wrong (and hopefully a solution)…

Oh... I don't think HD skins were a thing during 1.12. I don't think it is supported. Tell me if I am wrong.
