Cosmetic Armor Reworked Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I put armor in the cosmetic slots?
Open your inventory and look for the cosmetic armor slots, which are separate from your regular armor slots. Drag armor pieces into these cosmetic slots just like you would equip regular armor—the cosmetic armor will display on your character without providing any protection or stat bonuses.
Can I wear mismatched armor sets?
Yes, that's the main point of the mod. You can equip full diamond armor for protection in your regular slots while wearing leather or any other armor style in the cosmetic slots for appearance.
What happens if I hide an armor piece?
Clicking the hide button next to an armor slot removes that piece from your visual appearance, showing your skin underneath instead. This works for both regular and cosmetic armor slots.
Does cosmetic armor give me any protection?
No, cosmetic armor is purely visual and provides zero protection, stats, or effects. Only the armor in your regular slots counts toward your defense.
How do I turn off cosmetic armor for PvP?
Use the main toggle button in the mod's interface to disable all cosmetic effects on your client. This hides all cosmetic armor visuals without removing the items from your inventory.
Will my cosmetic armor drop when I die?
By default, yes—cosmetic armor drops like regular items when you die. You can change this behavior in the mod's config file to prevent cosmetic armor from dropping.
Can other players see my cosmetic armor?
Yes, other players see your cosmetic armor on their screens. If you disable cosmetic effects on your client for PvP, only you see the change—other players still see your cosmetic armor.
Does this mod work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, the mod works on multiplayer servers, and other players will see your cosmetic armor. The client-side toggle for disabling cosmetics only affects your own view, not what others see.
Can I use cosmetic armor with other armor mods?
Cosmetic Armor Reworked is designed to work alongside most armor mods, but compatibility depends on how those mods handle armor slots. Test with your specific mod combination to confirm.
What if I can't see the cosmetic armor slots in my inventory?
Make sure the mod is properly installed and enabled. If slots still don't appear, try closing and reopening your inventory, or restart your game. Check that no conflicting mods are hiding the UI elements.
