SkinShifter
by ToCraft
SkinShifter lets a player change the skin shown for their character through a command, using another player's name or UUID.
What it does
Running the skinshifter set command with a target name or UUID switches the character's skin to that profile's appearance. The change affects only how the skin is displayed, so renders are not altered beyond the chosen skin. The mod is aimed at modpacks and as a library that other mods can build on. It requires CraftedCore and Fabric API, runs on client and server, and is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt across 20 release versions, 1.18.2 – 26.3, under a custom license that is not open source.
Key features
Skin change command
The skinshifter set command takes a name or UUID and applies that profile's skin to the player.
Display-only skin swap
Only the displayed skin changes, and the character's own render is left as it is.
Library for other mods
Other mods can call the skin change feature, which suits modpacks that need morph-style behavior.
