How do I install Secure Skins?

Install the matching mod loader (Forge, Fabric or NeoForge) for your Minecraft version. Download the .jar. Put it in the .minecraft/mods folder and launch that loader profile. Opens on Modrinth — not every file is mirrored on our own servers.

What Minecraft version does Secure Skins work with?

The listing gives Minecraft 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, among others. This is the version stated by the author or source site, not something we verified ourselves.

Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

Minecraft 26.1–26.2Newest
Minecraft 1.21.10–1.21.11

⬇ Download for 26.1–26.2 ⬇ Download for 1.21.10–1.21.11

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

Secure Skins

Secure Skins is a simple mod that makes skin and cape downloading use the more secure HTTPS, rather than HTTP. No setup required, all textures are automatically changed to use HTTPS.

This fixes skin downloading for players in Russia!

This mod only changes vanilla texture downloading to use HTTPS, and not any other custom skin or cape mods, and should be compatible with all other mods.
