You couldn’t as the API to actually change the skin tone like that didn’t exist

You could change your skin tone to any hex code using the in-game slider then use the button in the bottom left to save it to your roblox avatar, me and friends did it to troll people with unobtainable avatars

edit: you actually still can, and you can see the devs didn’t update it after this was made

this update should make it better since you’ll be able to save it as an outfit now

You should file bug reports or feature requests for those, for me the performance and stability has drastically increased since the initial launch of it. Anyways, you just have to open it to change the skin tone then close it and continue editing in the website

This has existed for like a month already and I’ve noticed that it hasn’t added any new colours… It’s still the same brick colour ids but built into a slider instead of a lot of colour circles.
Before: (with all those colour circle gradients)


After: (Colour circle gradients got put into each colour slider gradient)

So there’s less colour circles since it got put into each slider gradient, and so basically there’s no new colours as I even checked the APIs, like Roblox has a set amount of Brick colours and that’s what avatars use.
image
Basically each slider increment is a brick colour, so you won’t be able to use any specific colour codes and only the 75 brick colours Roblox avatars have got.

Like here I want that specific colour code and roblox translates it to the closest brick colour id

actually nvm, the APIs return the closest brick colour as 1013 but in-game it’s correct.

ok its because the website of Roblox avatar editor still uses V1 API, so forget what I said sorry

Keyword, Avatar Editor in experiences.

Here is the Formula to calculate the enforcment for Default Clothing.

I worked on writing that Guide yesterday, then realized an issue in my Example Code. And today I fixed it. Basically, I was using wrong math, and the results didn’t match the calculator. But now, it’s accurate.
