So I was playing on a Lan server with my brothers, and we discovered that whoever opens the Lan server doesn't get their skin shown to the rest of us.
Basically, everyone sees him with the Steve skin expect for the person actually playing him. Again, this only happens to the person who launched the Lan server.
I was hoping this was a common problem, but no one else seems to have made a thread about it.
We've been using 1.7.10 and 1.8 versions of Minecraft, and the Pixelmon mod was properly installed each time. I mention this because the problem occurs on both of these versions of Minecraft.

Hey, I don't know why even a hint of acknowledgement is optional here, but it's really starting to get annoying.
I believe this is a valid issue, from my recent experiences.
Yeah, happens to me too, I don't know if you can fix it though...
Is that it then? is there really no around this?
The way I see it, there are three possibilities as to what's going on here:
1. Someone on this site knows how to fix this problem, but hasn't found this thread.
2. Nobody knows how to fix this problem, and this is everyone's way of telling me.
3. Everyone has decided that I must be ignored for whatever reason, unless the response is in no way helpful what-so-ever.
There isn't a way around this as far as I know, it's just the way Minecraft's LAN servers work.
Edit: On an unrelated note, this shouldn't affect gameplay severely. I'd just ignore it until Mojang posts something about it.
