Show Me Your Skin! (Neoforge Port)
by TheKryzzz_
Show Me Your Skin! is a NeoForge client mod that lets each player hide or make transparent their armor, elytra and shield, with optional server-side syncing.
What it does
Armor pieces, the elytra and the shield can be hidden or set to any transparency, and each piece can be configured on its own. The mod can also hide enchantment glint, toggle the player name tag, and restore vanilla armor rendering in situations such as combat, for a configurable number of seconds after the player takes damage. Armor hiding can be limited to certain conditions instead of applying all the time.
The mod is a client mod first. When it is also installed on a server, the server enters server mode, where server owners set the available options and players see those settings in real time, and per-player overrides can be applied. Without the server side, a player configures personal settings for their own view only, and other players are unaffected. The client is required, while the server may leave the mod out. Files target 1.21 – 1.21.11, and the mod is not open source, under All rights reserved.
Key features
Per-piece armor hiding
Each armor piece, the elytra and the shield can be hidden on its own, so helmets can stay visible while chestplates disappear.
Arbitrary transparency
Armor can be made semi-transparent at any level instead of only fully shown or fully hidden.
Context-sensitive hiding
Armor can return to its normal rendering after taking damage for a set number of seconds, or under other chosen conditions such as combat.
Server settings sync
On a server running the mod, owners configure the options and players see them live, with per-player overrides for specific cases.
