Java skin not working and what I do on my bedrock acc doesn't register to my Java acc

[cedar trail]

I have made a free Aternos server with Spigot/Paper geyser so all of my friends can play it

I have my accounts globally linked so I can enjoy Java on PC and also play Minecraft without exploding my laptop

I play slightly modded Java with Fabric mods, mainly for optimization and shaders and using the Modrinth launcher

Issue 1:

when I play Java my skin doesn't load at all

Issue 2:

when I first played on Bedrock my inventory and other user data got copied to it but when I went back on Java I was where I last logged off on Java with all the items and stuff, the data I had on Bedrock didn't get copied over to Java

-# please ping in response

You're probably using offline mode. Global linking uses the UUID of your online mode account, no matter if offline mode is enabled

[cedar trail]

what does offline mode mean and how do I turn it off-?

[drowsy iron]

!!offline
Read below for an explanation

To turn offline mode off, set online-mode in server.properties to true

Cracked servers are not supported here and by setting your server as so, you will not receive support here any further.
"Cracked" or "offline mode" servers basically disable any sort of Mojang authentication and allow people with non-genuine versions of the game to join. Unless the server is behind an online mode BungeeCord instance, This is software piracy and is illegal!. By setting your server as so, you are condoning the use of piracy.

If you are simply just wanting Bedrock players to be able to join your Java server without a Java account, we recommend using our plugin Floodgate which allows them to join the server with it being in online mode. If you did not mean to set your server to offline mode or don't understand what it means, please read the above and set your server to online mode.

If you are intending to allow non-genuine Minecraft accounts on your server and are aware that you're supporting software piracy, you are on your own in terms of Geyser support. Please seek support elsewhere.
