About this Mod
Need to quickly change your skin without going to minecraft.net? Or do you want per world-specific skin in your singleplayer?
Fabric Tailor
A server-side or singleplayer skin changing / restoring mod. All with one simple command:
/skin
(You can also use keybind on the client)
It supports skin fetching via player's name as well as via URL. If you use player name, cape is fetched as well (if player has one). Not fan of existing skins? No problem, mod supports uploading skin from local storage as well.
As a side feature, it also requests textures from ely.by and mojang to work like skin restorer for server / singleplayer.
