(doxaaaa) question: efficienct way of using skin / skin bob?

[rapid chasm]

whats the best way to replace skins through skin textures?

I've used mineskin and copied the texture into a server flag map and i just use the flag for when i want to get a specific skin to change the player to, and when a player joins i apply the skin to them using - adjust <player> skinbob<server.flag[watever]>

I mean, depends on what you're trying to make? if you want it to be a dynamic thing you'll probably want server flags, if it's meant to be a few hard-coded ones you could use a data script, etc.

i mean technically this is "bad practice" but this is what i do it takes like half a second to load sometimes

• execute as_op "npc skin --url skinurl"

you can get the skin url from mineskin

[rapid chasm]

Considering ill be manually adding skins to the flag map > grabbing specific skins on players custom rank conditions

Would this would be viable?

[rapid chasm]

This would be for player skins though

[stone kiln]

That should be fine yeah, although if this is something you'll be manually doing might be better off using a data script

[stone kiln]

I mean, that is bad practice yeah - you're making an API call to mineskin every time instead of just setting the skin

Citizens needs to get the skin blob from the URL, if you directly give it the skin blob you skip that step

[rapid chasm]

Ah yea, makes sense to use a data script

Cheers
