Invisible Armor
by tsokiyzan
Invisible Armor is a Fabric mod for 1.20.1 that lets armor pieces crafted with glass blocks sit in a cosmetic slot, so the worn gear can be hidden while the real armor stays on.
What it does
Armor pieces made from glass blocks are placed in a cosmetic armor slot rather than the main armor slots. The cosmetic slot only overrides the look of whatever main armor is worn, so the real protection and stats are unchanged. The mod was written to solve a specific conflict: Create's engineer's goggles appeared in first person with a first-person model mod, and the goggles could not be hidden that way.
Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. It is published for Fabric only, and the latest file, 1.0.0, targets 1.20.1. The author describes the project as a small, quickly made mod, and it is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Installation needs Fabric; no other mod is listed as required.
Key features
Invisible armor pieces
Glass-block armor pieces occupy a separate cosmetic slot and hide the armor worn underneath.
Goggles hiding fix
Engineer's goggles from Create can be hidden in first person with a first-person model mod that otherwise fails to hide them.
Cosmetic override only
The cosmetic slot changes only the visible look, leaving the main armor slots and their values as they are.
Crafted with glass
Each invisible armor piece is crafted from glass blocks, so no separate material is needed.
