Please differentiate in the below Custom Skins (custom created skin pack) vs Store Skins (Minecraft store purchase).
I understand that with 1.11 a new feature is being introduced to transfer Store Skins from one device to another when you play (tied to your Xbox live account.) I also understand that this feature does not work for Custom Skins and that this is tied more to a marketing problem rather than a technical one.
However, with this new beta Custom Skins revert back to Steve upon every reload of the game.
Steps to Reproduce
1/ Load Minecraft
2/ Select a Custom Skin from a custom skin pack (not Store Skin)
3/ load game (skin is functional)
4/ leave game.
5/ Load Minecraft and skin has reverted to Steve
Versions affected that I am aware of (XboxOne, Windows 10)
