DGLib Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need to install DGLib if I'm not a mod developer?
Only if another mod requires it—check that mod's installation instructions. DGLib is a library mod that runs in the background, so you won't see it in your inventory or gameplay, but certain cosmetic mods won't work without it.
Why are my custom skins or cosmetics not showing up?
Make sure DGLib is installed and loaded before the cosmetic mod that needs it. Check your mod list in-game to confirm both mods are present, and try removing other mods temporarily to rule out conflicts.
Can I use DGLib to swap just one body part, like an arm?
Yes—DGLib lets you replace individual skin parts without affecting the rest of your character's appearance. The specific method depends on which cosmetic mod is using DGLib to manage your skin.
What does 'skin layers' mean in the mod description?
Skin layers are transparent overlays that sit on top of your character model, useful for displaying custom armor or clothing details. DGLib handles these layers so they display correctly over your base skin.
How do I make parts of my skin glow?
DGLib provides the glow layer system that cosmetic mods use to add glowing effects to specific pixels on your character. The cosmetic mod you're using will have its own instructions for which skin areas support glow.
Why do my glowing effects disappear when I fight in Epic Fight mod?
DGLib automatically disables glow effects during combat to prevent visual bugs and performance issues. This is intentional behavior—the glow will return when combat ends.
Does DGLib affect my game performance?
DGLib itself has minimal impact since it only runs when cosmetic mods use its features. Performance depends more on how many cosmetic mods are active and how complex their skin modifications are.
Can I use DGLib with other character customization mods?
DGLib is designed to work alongside other cosmetic mods, but conflicts can occur if multiple mods try to modify the same skin parts. Test your mod combination and disable conflicting mods if you see visual glitches.
What happens if I remove DGLib while a cosmetic mod is installed?
The cosmetic mod that depends on DGLib will likely crash or fail to load. Always keep DGLib installed as long as you're using mods that require it.
Do I need to configure DGLib in a config file?
Most players don't need to configure DGLib directly—it works automatically once installed. If you're a mod developer, DGLib provides code tools and APIs, but regular players just need the file present.
