Solved Set a player's skin through url

[PatoFrango]

Hi,

I'd like to know if there's a way to set the skin of a player through the url of the image, not by grabbing the skin of an already existing user. Thanks in advance.

Well, from the addon's description it seems to be exactly what I'm looking for. I honestly have no idea how I wasn't able to find this earlier. I will give it a go and then I'll let you know how it turned out. Thank you for now!

EDIT: Just realized it requires Spigot 1.13+ and I'm on 1.12.2 (and can't update). Is there a way to do what I asked on 1.12?

EDIT 2: Ok so I installed it and apparently it works, but now I'm having a different issue:

on join:
    retrieve skin from url "mylinklol.png" into {_skin}
    set player's displayed skin to {_skin}

So I tried to do it with this code, but when I join the server nothing happens. I tried printing out the value of {_skin} and it does return me a big string, so the problem isn't when retrieving the skin, it's probably when trying to set it. I opened the console and it gave me this error:

This is much likely because I'm trying to run it on 1.12.2. Still, any ideas?

EDIT 3: Okay nevermind, I just realized MundoSK has the exact same effects and works on 1.12. It works now, but I remember that I’ve tried to use MundoSK in the past and it was a pain in the ass (can't remember exactly why but I remember it bugged the whole server). I hope I don't find anything bad.

SO THE ANSWER HERE IS if you're on 1.13+, use Tablisknu to set a skin from an url/file. If you're on 1.12 or earlier, go with MundoSK.

Thank you @Lego_freak1999 ! That helped a lot
