Character skins from marketplace skin packs occasionally fail to load on game launch. They are converted into custom character creator skin slots, and render as either Alex or Steve.

What’s happening:

Skins from skin packs do not load up on game launch, and instead are converted into character creator skins, displaying the default Steve or Alex skin.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Open up Minecraft.
2. Wait for the character skin to load. It should either appear normally, or the slot will have converted into a custom character creator skin slot, displaying default Alex or default Steve.

Expected Result

The skin loads normally.

Actual Result

The skin sometimes converts into a custom character creator skin, displaying as default Steve or default Alex.

*This has happened on multiple skin packs. Custom skins made with the Character Creator are unaffected.
