SSkins Mouth
SSkins Mouth adds an animated mouth to Minecraft characters, with custom mouths and a skin management screen for players who want facial animation.
What it does
Players toggle a visible mouth animation on their character, which is meant for roleplay and visual storytelling. Opening the in-game skin management screen with the K key lets a player drag and drop a skin and enable or disable the mouth animation. A mouth can be opened and closed to match the character.
The mod depends on Plasmo Voice, which must be installed alongside it. It runs on the client and the server, so both need the mod for the animation to work across a multiplayer session. Installation starts from Fabric 1.20.1 or newer for Fabric builds, and the mod is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 12 release versions, 1.18.2 – 1.21.3. The code is not open source and is covered by All rights reserved.
On first launch the mod opens a plan selector, where a player enters a Minecraft username and picks a plan such as Normal or Premium, with or without a mouth. The selection is applied and synced to the mod automatically. Custom skin servers handle skins from 64 to 2048 pixels, and mouth use is rented through Dimension Studio.
Key features
Animated mouth toggle
A mouth animation can be turned on or off per skin, so each character keeps its own look.

Pressing K in game opens a UI where skins are dropped in and mouth animation is switched on or off.
Custom mouths
The mod supports custom mouths that give characters distinct faces.
Custom skin sizes
Skin servers accept custom skins from 64 to 2048 pixels, so higher resolution skins are usable.
