Skin Layers 3D Mod replaces the usually flat second layer of player skins with a 3d modeled version. Will automatically switch to the vanilla 2d rendering when players are further away than 12 blocks in order to increase the framerate. Also supports transparent parts on things like glasses! Just keep in mind that the outer skin layer is slightly bigger than the main player model, so the cubes will not line up perfectly with the skin. Since this mod is purely visual and fully clientside, so it doesn’t have to be installed on servers and works everywhere.

Features:
- Converts the typically flat second layer of player skins into a 3D modeled version, adding a sense of depth.
- Automatically switches to the vanilla 2D rendering when players are more than 12 blocks away to maintain smooth gameplay.
- Allows for transparent elements, such as glasses, to be displayed on skins.
- This mod is purely visual and works without needing to be installed on servers.
