Frequently asked questions
How do I open the skin customization screen?
Press the designated keybind (configurable in your mod settings) to open the HD Skins menu from in-game. You can also access it through the main menu or pause screen depending on your mod version.
What skin servers can I use with this mod?
The mod supports multiple skin servers including Mojang's official server, MinecraftSkins, and other third-party alternatives. You can switch between them in the customization screen to find skins that suit your needs.
Why is my skin not showing up in-game after I load it?
Check that you've applied the skin and that the server you're using is responding correctly. If the skin still doesn't appear, try relogging or restarting the game, and verify the skin file format is supported (usually PNG).
Can I use skins larger than 64x64 pixels?
Yes, that's the main purpose of this mod—it allows you to use high-resolution skins beyond Mojang's standard limits, such as 128x128, 256x256, or higher depending on your server and mod configuration.
