One of the most popular features of the mod is the ability to use skins stored locally on your hard drive. This is ideal for testing new skins or playing in offline mode.

Directory Structure

Local textures must be placed in the following subfolders within .minecraft/CustomSkinLoader/LocalSkin/:

  • Skins: LocalSkin/skins/{username}.png
  • Capes: LocalSkin/capes/{username}.png
  • Elytras: LocalSkin/elytras/{username}.png

Usage Example

If your in-game name is Steve, place your skin file at .minecraft/CustomSkinLoader/LocalSkin/skins/Steve.png. Ensure that LocalSkin is at the top of your loadlist in the configuration file to prioritize it over online sources.
