ClovSkins

by Kel_Cleverov

ClovSkins lets players change the skin their character wears in game, and the skin is loaded from a file the player picks.

FabricQuiltClient or server, optionalCustom license1.21.3 – 26.2

What it does

Players can swap the skin on their character without leaving the game. The skin is applied by loading an image file, so changing looks does not require editing the game's own assets. Builds exist for Fabric and Quilt across the 1.21.3 – 26.2 range, with the latest file for 26.2 dated 2026-08-14 on the alpha channel. AlinLib and Fabric API are required, and Mod Menu is optional. The mod is released under a custom license and is not open source. It works on a client alone, a server alone or both, and installing it on one side is enough.

Key features

  1. In-game skin change

    Players can replace their character's skin while playing, with no separate launcher or editing tool.

  2. Skin loading from a file

    The skin is loaded from an image file the player selects, so custom looks can be used directly.

  3. Mod Menu entry

    When Mod Menu is installed, the mod's settings are reachable from its list of installed mods.

Show Yourself is client-side only, open source under the MIT License, and covers 1.18.2 – 1.21.9 on Fabric alone.
