š”ļø ShadowSkins
Because every player deserves to be seen.
A Minecraft server is a world of stories. Every player brings a unique identity, yet nothing breaks immersion faster than Steve and Alex appearing where custom skins should be.
ShadowSkins silently restores that identity.
Designed for both online and offline mode servers, ShadowSkins automatically fixes player skins with blazing speed while remaining incredibly lightweight. No complicated setup. No unnecessary features. Just accurate skin restoration that works when you need it.
⨠Why ShadowSkins?
Imagine joining your favorite server.
Your friends are wearing custom outfits. Your staff team has unique uniforms. Your content creators have recognizable branding.
Then... everyone suddenly becomes Steve.
ShadowSkins makes sure that never happens.

Projects on Modrinth are automatically available through a Maven repository for use with JVM build tools such as Gradle. To learn more about the Modrinth Maven API, click here.
Note: When available, you should use the creator's maven repo instead as it will have transitive dependency information that the Modrinth Maven API does not. You may also end up with duplicate dependencies if you use a mix of Modrinth and non-Modrinth Maven repositories for your dependencies, because the group identifier will be different when served through the Modrinth Maven API.
