    Agreed, when i'm offline for some reason, I feel like i'm playing some sort of cracked minecraft, where we only have the default skin or have to go into minecraft.jar to change it. it is no different than having a cracked copy of minecraft

    I only have limited data internet on my phone, so I can't use skins. I would greatly appreciate this feature. An easy way to implement this would be to add a folder to the root directory that is created when the launcher opens, also a field on the launcher where you can drag n drop an image file and it will put it in the folder then when the user clicks play offline, instead of the game searching for the skin server it would instead look for the folder at root to find the skin.

    You can change your offline skin by having a resouspack that changes the Steve or Alex skin.

    The closest thing we can get to Offline skins in texture packs, but that only retextures the Steve and Alex skins, this makes it difficult for people who don't really know how to edit/create texture packs.

     

    I want these offline skins to apply over offline lan, because it sometimes makes it hard for multiple people to only have the option of 2 different skins.

    I agree, it's annoying to not have the skin when playing offline.

    You should at least be able to choose between alex and steve.

    If you have the skin file downloaded, you should be able to upload it from there.

    It would be very useful in case that you present internet issues, as this can happen in a third-world country or in a first-world country. If there is a way I appreciate if someone can share the steps.

    Yea it would be nice. My internet is terrible despite being the best available in my city (not saying much, they are all rated less than 50%). It is pretty fast when it works, but it loses connection a LOT, causing skin problems all the time. Id really like to be able to just have a skins folder rather than a server...

    It is so annoying, when my skin goes back to the standard alex. I wish they would fix this

    This needs to happen! I want my skins in offline too.

    As a matter of fact, the Windows 10 version actually keeps a players skin.
