OpenMCSkins
A custom skin loader mod that allows players to use skins not only from the official skin system, but also from:
- Local storage
- A custom server that you can download in the GitHub repository
- The ely.by skins, because its API is identical to that used in custom servers
- Optifine capes
- Cloaks+ capes
- LabyMod capes
- MinecraftCapes capes (even animated!!!)
- 5ZigReborn capes
- Cosmetica capes
- TLauncher skins
- Mantle capes
- Wynntils capes
- Meteor client capes
- LiquidBounce client capes
Dependencies
- Cloth config (for 1.16-1.18)
- YACL (for 1.19 and above)
And it all works pretty fast because the mod uses multi-threading.
This mod is not affiliated with Mojang, Optifine, LabyMod, MinecraftCapes mod, Cloaks+, TLauncher, ely.by, 5ZigReborn, Mantle, Wynntils, Meteor client, LiquidBounce client or Cosmetica mod
