About this project

What does Skin Changer add?

The Skin Changer Mod allows you to easily change your Minecraft skin without restarting the game. With this mod, you can quickly switch between different skins and try new looks while playing.

One of the best things about this mod is that it works in singleplayer, so you can change your skin anytime while playing your world. You can copy another player's skin, load a skin from a URL, or even use a skin file stored on your computer.

⚠️ Note:
Currently, this mod works client-side only. This means if you join a multiplayer server, the changed skin will only be visible to you. Other players will still see your original skin.

If this mod receives good support and response, a server-side plugin version may be developed in the future so that skins can work properly on servers as well.

ℹ️ You can also open Skin Changer GUI using the keybind H


Commands

Here are the available commands in the mod:

  • /skinc player <username> — Copy a player's skin

  • /skinc file <path> — Load a skin from a local file
  • /skinc model <classic|slim> — Set the arm model type
  • /skinc reset — Reset to your original skin
