Topic: Why do people make Minecraft skins with transparent parts when they show up pitch black in-game?

Anonymous A started this discussion 14 years ago #16,531

I never understood why people make skins like this when they never show up transparent in the game.

So transparency only works if you replace the char.png?

But how the fuck do you see it when your profile skin covers that?

i guess either never upload a custom skin or play offline

maybe moving something from the skeletons code to the player avatar?

It wouldn't show up in multiplayer then, so it is mostly pointless.

GTA still doesn't have the capacity of being an endless sandbox as Minecraft does.
