About this Mod

HD Skins is a mod that allows players to use alternative skin servers in minecraft, primary with the purpose of loading skins that are higher resolution than what Mojang normally allows.


Skins can be previewed and changed in-game using a handy customisation screen that even supports Mojang's own skin server!

This is also a companion mod which integrates well with Mine Little Pony.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does HD Skins need to be installed on the Minecraft server?

No. Modrinth marks HD Skins as unsupported on the server side. Install it only in your local Minecraft mods folder. Your server can remain unchanged unless the mod page lists an additional dependency.

Which version and loader does HD Skins require?

Use a file for fabric, quilt and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 26.2, 26.2-rc-2, 26.2-rc-1. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.

HD Skins is not working – what should I check?

First check the Minecraft version, loader version and required dependencies. Put the .jar file in your local .minecraft/mods folder and remove older duplicates. Because this mod is client-side, adding server RAM will not fix it.
