Skinss is a Fabric/Forge mod that lets players use custom skins and capes from local files, with server-side synchronization so other players with the mod can see them too.
WARNING: Doesn't work with Tl_skin It looks like the update will fix it.
Features
- Apply a custom skin from a local PNG file
- Apply a custom cape from a local PNG file
- Supports animated GIF capes
- Server sync: custom textures are shared with other players (requires the mod on the server and on clients)
- Saves your selection and reapplies it on join
How it works
- When you apply a skin/cape, Skinss uploads the texture data to the server.
- The server broadcasts it to all connected players.
- Clients override player textures locally during rendering.
Commands
/skinss skin classic <file.png>— apply a classic/wide skin/skinss skin slim <file.png>— apply a slim skin/skinss cape <file.png|file.gif>— apply a cape (PNG or GIF)/skinss remove skin— remove custom skin/skinss remove cape— remove custom cape/skinss remove all— remove both

Requirements

- Fabric API
- For synchronization: Skinss must be installed on the server and on all clients
Notes / Limitations
