Okay, I gotta ask. WHY would you expect sailors and PIRATES to be lighter-skinned? Does the term "Swarthy Sea Dog" not mean anything to you? You don't get to work on a boat and not develop a tan at minimum.

I changed the blacks crew members to have a skin matching the other members because i don't want blacks around. The main character is the only non-black character that i changed.
You can see with the "v1.1" preview image in the changelog and the one with Adewale that even like that they are still very brown, to match the other unchanged european crew members that are very tanned themself.

As for the main character, i made him slightly lighter skin because i like it better that way. But i still kept him tanned enough so he is not "sticking out"/"out of place" around the others.

Edit ;
That being said, when i started doing that mod i was going to make the crew and main character a lot paler, but that would have mean re-doing every single NPCs in the game to avoid having them sticking out too much.
And i'm too lazy to do it, mainly because the face and body are separate texture and it's annoying to make them match each other, so i have settle for tanned everyone, and slightly paler main character.
I think it is fine as it is.
