# SkinTotem<\/p>\n
Client-side custom Totem textures generated from Minecraft skins!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
## A Personal Note<\/p>\n
Back in 2018, I launched Minecraft Skin to Totem, the first automated skin totem generator that helped popularize this idea.<\/p>\n
This mod comes from that same project and the same obsession: I want skin totems to feel simple, instant, and fun to use with friends. Over time, clones appeared, including sites that I inspected and found direct copies of my code. So SkinTotem is my way of bringing that same idea directly into the game as a client-side mod.<\/p>\n
If you used the website years ago, this is the same concept brought into Minecraft itself! You might have even come from there… hello!<\/p>\n
## Overview<\/p>\n
SkinTotem gives renamed Totems of Undying custom textures based on Minecraft: Java player skins.<\/p>\n
It includes:
\n– Pending preview feedback while a totem is waiting to load
\n– Default skin fallback support
\n– Simple in-game config controls
\n– Refresh actions for all totems or only inventory totems<\/p>\n
## How It Works<\/p>\n
Rename a Totem of Undying using an Anvil to a Minecraft username. SkinTotem will look up that player skin and render the totem with a matching custom texture.<\/p>\n
If the skin is still loading, the mod shows a pending preview so it does not look broken. If no skin is found, it just shows the default texture.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
## Configuration<\/p>\n
Available options:
\n– `Mod Enabled`
\n– `Default Skin`
\n– `Refresh All Totems`
\n– `Refresh Inventory Totems`<\/p>\n
Leave `Default Skin` empty to disable the default override.<\/p>\n
