It works completely client sided.<br \/>\n## What this mod does<br \/>\nIt allows resource packs to change the skin of any player based on their name or UUID.<br \/>\nThe textures must be placed in <code>assets\/skintextures\/textures\/entity\/player<\/code> from the root of the pack.<br \/>\nCape and elytra textures must be placed in <code>assets\/skintextures\/textures\/entity\/player\/cape<\/code> and <code>assets\/skintextures\/textures\/entity\/player\/elytra<\/code> respectively.<br \/>\nThe name of the texture file should either be the lowercase name or the lowercase UUID of the player, ending in <code>.png<\/code><br \/>\nAlternatively, you can use the hash of the original skin, which you can get by shifting and right-clicking any player (useful for NPCs and such).<\/p>\n<p>Currently the mod affects the in-game skin of players, player heads, the first-person view and the Show Me Your Skin! mod.<br \/>\nIf you encounter any mod incompatibilities, please let me know!<br \/>\n## Example file names<br \/>\nBy name: <code>benonardo.png<\/code><br \/>\nBy UUID: <code>373ed407-89be-4f46-b85f-65615620d6b9.png<\/code><br \/>\nBy hash: <code>61a1a64d3e42a5fc54c3303a5c5d06c0617b524c6a6b44cc9f0308a7cede3050.png<\/code><br \/>\n## Dependencies<br \/>\nNone!
