Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.21–26.x. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
Give yourself the head of any Bedrock (Geyser) player with their real skin, using one command. Works with or without Floodgate.
⬇ Download on ModrinthGive yourself the head of any Bedrock player, showing their real skin, with one command.
Vanilla /give only knows Java accounts, so heads of Geyser players show up as Steve or Alex. BedrockHeads looks up the Bedrock player's converted skin and gives you a head that looks right for everyone, Java and Bedrock alike.
Commands
| Command | What it does |
|---|---|
/bedrockhead <gamertag> |
Gives you the head of that Bedrock player |
/bedrockhead give <targets> <gamertag> |
Gives the head to other players (supports selectors like @a); works from the console and command blocks |
- Gamertags with spaces work without quotes:
/bedrockhead Cool Gamer 123 - With Floodgate installed, tab-completion suggests the Bedrock players who are online, and the prefixed name (
.Steve) works too.
Permissions
| Permission | Default | Allows |
|---|---|---|
bedrockheads.command |
op | /bedrockhead <gamertag> |
bedrockheads.command.others |
op | /bedrockhead give … (also needs bedrockheads.command) |
How it works
- Player is on your server: the skin comes straight from Floodgate, instantly.
- Anyone else: the skin is fetched from the GeyserMC Global API, which stores Bedrock skins converted for Java. Results are cached for 5 minutes.
A Bedrock player's skin is only in the Global API once they've joined a Geyser server at least once. A fresh skin can take a few minutes to appear.
Requirements
- Paper 1.21.4 or newer (tested on 26.2). Paper forks such as Purpur should work too. Spigot is not supported.
- Floodgate is optional, but recommended if your server runs Geyser.
- No config file is needed. Drop the jar in and go.
Java players?
You don't need this plugin for them. Vanilla does it: /give @s minecraft:player_head[minecraft:profile="jeb_"]
Privacy
The only network requests go to api.geysermc.org, and they contain only the gamertag being looked up.
