Skin Preview shows a 3D render of a player's Minecraft skin on the main menu, next to the username.

FabricClient-side onlyAll rights reserved26.2

What it does

Once installed, the main menu displays the skin of the account in a three-dimensional model. The model is drawn from the skin already applied to the player's profile, so no separate upload is needed. The mod runs on the client alone, and the server never needs it. It requires Fabric API and is published only for Fabric, for 26.2, under All rights reserved.

Key features

  1. 3D skin model

    A rotating three-dimensional figure of the player's skin is drawn on the main menu.

  2. Username display

    The account name is shown beside the skin preview, so the player can confirm which profile is active.

  3. Minimal setup

    The preview reads the skin already linked to the account and needs no settings to start working.
