SkinToggle
by FunkDroy
SkinToggle switches individual skin layers on and off for a player, based on an activation condition such as health or being hit.
What it does
Each part of the skin can be configured separately, and each one is toggled, flashed or left alone according to its chosen Activation Type. The mod drives the built-in vanilla skin customization system, so no extra textures are involved. With the mode set to Disabled, nothing changes on screen.
Available activation types are Toggle, Flash, Flash Off, Hit Entity, Take Damage, Health High and Health Low. Health High and Health Low need a Health Threshold, which sets the health level at which a change happens, and Flash and Flash Off use a Flash Duration measured in ticks. The mod runs on the client only, so a server does not need it, and the author notes it adds nothing useful on a server.
Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.4, with 1.0.1+1.21.4 as the latest file released on 2026-02-16. SkinToggle is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Parts can change when health rises above or drops below a set threshold, inclusive of that value.
Hit and damage triggers
A part can change when the player hits an entity or takes damage, instead of on a timer or a health level.
Flash timing
Flash and Flash Off modes show or hide a part for a number of ticks, set by the Flash Duration option.

This mod dynamically toggles skin layers using the built-in vanilla minecraft skin customization system, making it only necessary to install on the client.
