About Cosmetic Armor
From ModrinthAdds 4 Curios/Trinkets slots for visual armor overrides.
Minecraft 1.17 and later
Requires: Trinkets API
Since Curios was discontinued on Fabric for 1.17 in favor of the Trinkets API, this mod now uses that.
This 1.17 version also adds a few features / fixes a few bugs which were in the previous version:
- All modded armor should be immediately compatible without any effort from your side
- The items don't show "Slot: Cosmetic Something" anymore
- Heads, skulls and other "head" items (such as carved pumpkins) can now be worn in the cosmetic slot
- Item tags allow you to define items which can't be worn in a cosmetic slot instead of the old "whitelist" tags:
data/cosmetic-armor/tags/items/blacklist.json - A new item tag allows defining items which always show and won't be overriden by an item in the corresponding cosmetic slot:
data/cosmetic-armor/tags/items/always_visible.json
Minecraft 1.16
Requires: Curios API
By default, only the vanilla armor types are equippable.
You can add modded armor through the tags curios:cosmetic_helmet, curios:cosmetic_chestplate, curios:cosmetic_leggings, and curios:cosmetic_boots.
