About this Mod

Minecraft 1.17 and later

Requires: Trinkets API

Screenshot

Since Curios was discontinued on Fabric for 1.17 in favor of the Trinkets API, this mod now uses that.

This 1.17 version also adds a few features / fixes a few bugs which were in the previous version:

  • All modded armor should be immediately compatible without any effort from your side
  • The items don't show "Slot: Cosmetic Something" anymore
  • Heads, skulls and other "head" items (such as carved pumpkins) can now be worn in the cosmetic slot
  • Item tags allow you to define items which can't be worn in a cosmetic slot instead of the old "whitelist" tags: data/cosmetic-armor/tags/items/blacklist.json
  • A new item tag allows defining items which always show and won't be overriden by an item in the corresponding cosmetic slot: data/cosmetic-armor/tags/items/always_visible.json

Minecraft 1.16

Requires: Curios API

Screenshot

By default, only the vanilla armor types are equippable.

You can add modded armor through the tags curios:cosmetic_helmet, curios:cosmetic_chestplate, curios:cosmetic_leggings, and curios:cosmetic_boots.
