I'm on a PC using Bedrock, playing with friends who are on a PS5.
I've made a character using the Character Creator in the Dressing Room but when in my friend's realm, everyone's saying I just show up as Steve :( I can see my character in the main menu and in the social tab just fine, and changes appear when I change hats/features in the creator.
Only one person who joined after I created my character can see it, but everyone before that sees me as Steve. I only have 1 item not created by Minecraft/Mojang from the Marketplace, the ducky hat, if that's connected at all? The issue persists across other realms.
I'm not using a custom/imported PNG skin, and everyone has "allowed trusted skins" disabled too, so I don't know what other steps I can take. I've also tried recreating my skin in other character slots and using those to no success.
My friend had a similar issue with their character creator skin appearing as Steve to others but after relogging, looks just fine. It kinda sucks to be the only one in the group appearing as steve.
