Invisible Player Armor
by takaya7s
Invisible Player Armor lets a player hide individual armor pieces on the character model while the items stay equipped.
What it does
Each armor part of the player can be hidden from the rendered character, so the armor is worn without being shown on the model. The choice is made in a settings screen opened from the mods button that Mod Menu adds, which can be reached from the upper right corner of the main menu. Changes can be made during play, and edits to the config file are reflected while the game runs.
The mod runs on the client only, so a server does not need it and players can join a server without installing anything. It requires Fabric API, and Mod Menu is optional. Files are published for Fabric alone, with 0.9.7 for 26.3 as the latest, and the code is covered by the MIT License but is not open source. Builds cover 1.21 – 26.3 across 15 release versions.
Key features
Per-part armor hiding
Each armor piece on the player can be hidden independently, so a helmet can stay hidden while the chestplate remains visible.
Settings screen
A settings screen reached through the Mod Menu mods button lists the hiding options and applies them without restarting.
Live config reload
Edits made to the config file during play are picked up while the game is running.
Japanese interface
The settings screen and the description carry Japanese text alongside the English.
