About this project

What does Secure Skins add?

kofi-singular-alt codeberg sinytra connector

Secure Skins

Secure Skins is a simple mod that makes skin and cape downloading use the more secure HTTPS, rather than HTTP. No setup required, all textures are automatically changed to use HTTPS.

This fixes skin downloading for players in Russia!

This mod only changes vanilla texture downloading to use HTTPS, and not any other custom skin or cape mods, and should be compatible with all other mods.

Read more about HTTPS on Wikipedia.
