table getPlayerSkinNames()

This function does not accept parameters.

Returns a one-based array of stable skin keys. The first entry is default.

List the available appearance presets:

for _, skinKey in ipairs(getPlayerSkinNames()) do
    outputDebugString(skinKey)
end

Available only in server-side resource scripts.
For players this compatibility channel supplies Mutable visual features such as skin, tattoos and scars; it is not the recommended character identity selector.
Use setPlayerIdentity to select a complete recognizable character appearance while keeping armor independent.
Armor is authoritative equipment state controlled with setPlayerArmor and is never selected by this function.
See Player skin catalog for every currently supported key.
