BounceStyles
by RyanV97
BounceStyles is a cosmetics mod that lets players equip styles on the head, body, legs and feet, and lets anyone build new styles with GeckoLib.
What it does
Styles are cosmetic models attached to the player's armor slots, and each style is defined as a Style Pack. A Style Pack is built with GeckoLib, so a creator can add new cosmetics that players may earn and equip. The mod was originally created for the BounceSMP server and is open source under the MIT License.
Server administrators can define each style as an itemized version and gather them into Style Magazines that players can be given. Commands grant and revoke particular styles for a player, and configuration settings adjust how a style appears in the game, including hiding a particular player's style.
BounceStyles requires Architectury API, Fabric API and Geckolib, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across six release versions. The wiki covers how to create styles, and the supported versions may still change.
