About this project

What does SimpleHats-Lite add?

🎩 SimplerHats Lite - Unofficial Lightweight Port

An unofficial, lightweight port and refactor of SimpleHats. It removes the owo-lib dependency, migrates from Accessories to the Curios API for accessory slots, and fully preserves all original content and core gameplay.

⚠️ Credits & Original Project

This mod is an unofficial lightweight port. The original mod is SimpleHats, created by fonnymunkey.

✨ What’s New in "Lite"?

  • Preserves All Original Features: Retains original hats and every core mechanic (grab bags, recycling/crafting, dyeing, variant switching, particle effects, etc.).

  • Migrated to Curios API: Successfully migrated from Accessories to the Curios API so that hats are now equipped exclusively through Curios accessory slots.

  • Removed owo-lib: The owo-lib dependency has been removed to reduce mod conflicts and crash risks.

  • Added Player Doll Hat: An exclusive new hat that automatically detects and dynamically displays your current player skin.

⚠️ Requirements

  • Mod Loader: NeoForge
  • Dependency: Curios API (Required)
  • Mod Loader: Fabric26.2
  • Dependency: Trinkets Updated (Required)

🚀 Future Plans

The current focus is on stripping dependencies and refactoring the accessory system; the project will be actively maintained and updated to future Minecraft releases.

📜 Credits & Licensing

  • Original Code: Special thanks to fonnymunkey for creating SimpleHats. This project is open-sourced under the original MIT License.
  • Original Art: Sincere thanks to **Star Artsy**for allowing me to use and distribute the hat models and textures in this port.
