First of all sorry about my poor english, I'm from Spain.
Well, I'm new at Minecraft and I'm having a few problems changing my skin. I'm a Mac user and when I started trying to change my skin i read at some forums that i had to create a folder named "mob" in the same place where I had my Minecraft launch archive, with a .png archive named char.png with the skin that I want for my character in it. I did all that stuff and everything ran well.
The problems came when I changed the texture pack. I can only play as the default skin of each texture pack, but not with my own skin and I don't know how to change it. I've tried to unzip the texture packs and to changed the char.png archive and to zip it again, but when I do that, Minecraft doesn't recognize the packs and sets them as the default texture.
In other words, I can only play with my own skin when a use the default texture pack.
I'll be very grateful if someone can help me.
Thank you so.
