CosmetologyLib
A library for managing cosmetics.
About this Mod
A library to help Minecraft mods add custom cosmetics.
A unified interface for equipping cosmetics supplied by a variety of rendering libraries.
Provides tools for managing which cosmetics each player has permission to equip.
This is a library for developers, it adds no content on its own.
Features
- track slots for different cosmetics
- lock and unlock access to cosmetics
- packets for syncing with server saved data
- widgets for displaying cosmetics in guis
- load remote cosmetics to allow changes without requiring players to update your mod
- most features work when shadowed (just register my event handlers manually)
- cosmetic rendering
- Geckolib: add an armor model layer to the player
The Minecraft EULA/CUG says don't integrate with NFTs or sell cosmetics that look like capes, so... don't do that.

CosmetologyLib server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong forge version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.16.5). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is CosmetologyLib compatible with forge?
CosmetologyLib officially supports forge for Minecraft 1.16.5. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with CosmetologyLib – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if CosmetologyLib consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
