Blinking Skin Port
by Motschen
Blinking Skin Port brings the second skin layer blinking effect of the 1.12.2 Forge mod to newer Minecraft versions, letting a player's outer skin layers switch on and off on a timer.
What it does
Blinking Skin Port toggles the second skin layers of a player model automatically at a configurable interval, so the outer layers appear and disappear in turn and the skin seems to blink. Minecraft added the second skin layer to cover parts of the player's body, and this mod uses that layer to create the effect. A player needs a skin that includes second layers for the blinking to show.
The mod is a port of Blinking Skin Mod for 1.12.2 and runs on the client only, so players install it alone and servers do not need it. Other players on a server will see the blinking only if they run a Minecraft version that supports the second skin layer and a skin that has second layers. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and Quilt, with builds for 1.12 – 1.20.1 across 19 release versions.
Key features
Automatic layer toggling
The second skin layers switch on and off on their own once the mod is running, with no key press needed.
Configurable delay
The time between each toggle can be set in the config file, so the blinking can be slowed down or sped up.
Selectable body parts
The blinking can be applied to the cape, hat, jacket, both sleeves and both pants legs.
Config file editing
Settings are stored in a file named blinkigskinmod.cfg inside the config folder of the game directory, and can be changed with any text editor.
