When first logging into the game, my custom character shows up correctly on the main menu. While inside a Realm, from my point of view, all custom characters are replaced by Steve. Others in the Realm do not experience this issue. Profile picture shows correctly whether inside or outside a Realm, and while inside it, the character editor also shows my skin as Steve despite acknowledging I have my cosmetics equipped. Equipping any other cosmetic produces no result. Classic skins work as intended. “Allow only trusted skins“ option is not enabled.
The issue does not persist in normal worlds.
