Minecraft Skin Pack 1 Zombie Bug

In Legacy Console Edition, Skin Pack 1 had the Minecraft Zombie skin. The issue is, before March 2018, the arms of the zombie skin standed out. Now, the zombie arms are like a normal skin. I will have a picture for proof if you need some.

also the creeper skin should look like an actual creeper.

It's a skin. It doesn't affect the player model. Why should it?

The creeper skin should not look like an actual creeper. That will cause problems like making players confuse players for mobs, making the hitbox weird for the player, or making animations extremely glitchy. The zombie skin changing back was probably a balancing update to make it possible to distinguish between players and actual zombies, making it more "fair" in certain situations.

It's because before, the zombie skin ACTUALLYlooked like a real zombie, but now it's just like a Steve skin.

How is it that they didn't change the Cake Zombie skin then though?

 But yes, even if that change weren't to happen, Isome players mistake me as a real zombie, so that's probably why they changed it

 

Thank you for your report!
However, this issue is Invalid.

Although they may have similar names and contents, downloadable content for Console Edition is technically a different product than that for Bedrock versions, and minor differences should be expected. Furthermore, as was mentioned above, skin packs only provide the surface pattern for the mob; it's 3D shape is defined by its "model", which can't be changed by skin packs alone.

Since your report is about expecting or asking for a change to something that's working as it's meant to, this is a feature request, not a bug. For suggestions, you can use the feedback site, though tbh I imagine this was changed to discourage trolling and they won't want to change it back.

Well then Auldrick, please explain why the Zombie Pigman skin looks perfectly fine with the arms up? Where's the balancing there? And your argument of "mistaking players for real mobs" is completely arbitrary due to the fact that nametags are always visible. this IS a bug, and it's been neglected because of your ignorance. Get mad at me if you'd like, but this is a bug. If it isn't, then the Zombie Pigman skin in Skinpack 3 needs to be reverted to a normal player model, making it worthless, btw, as anyone can literally pull the texture file from the addon texture pack template and use it as a skin. I'd recommend reopning this, as it's still a bug in 1.10 onward.

I agree with Bobby Dobberstein on this.

This zombie skin is the only odd one out of the many classic skin packs where it should have had a zombie arm (The only other zombie skin being the Zombie in a Suit in the Battle & Beasts Skin Pack).

Even the "Minigame Masters" Skin packs have a zombie skin with a correct zombie arm. why must this one be any different?

This is not a feature request, it is a bug.
I wish that the Mods could re-open this issue, and rightfully correct this blunder.
