🎩 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.

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 (NeoForge) (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.
