  • The best Minetest skin editor I've ever seen

    This mod allows you to edit the look of your player, with foundational Steve and Alex bases, a large array of color choices, and outfits for each color! The use of this editor closely resembles the character editor from Minecraft, but there are much more choices and you don't have to pay for or unlock anything. You won't regret downloading it!

  • A good skin editor that give lot freedom

    Hi, Its UI is straight foward, simple. I enjoy it a lot.

    I also installed skindb, it seems there is a conflict that silent Edit Skin : you can't change skin. The model doesn't show up on the right side, and and change made is nullified.

    So i ended up removing skindb as Edit Skin fell more modular and give lot choices to players.

    We can focus on nuturing its database as : - black skin (or better : coffee's shade) - eyes color - gender neutral or even race (dwarf, elves, danarie (veloren), orc, undead...) - clotche categorised by theme : SF, medieval...

    There is lot thing we can do and i hope i can give a hand. :) thank a lot

  • Very neat skins mod

    As seen in Mineclone, this is a very neat skins mod that provides various customisation features to pick between for your player skin. It is very intuitive and very minimal, yet allows for a lot of creativity and personalisation of ones skin, rather than just having static skins to pick from like with other skin mods.

  • Highly customizable skins w/ no bloat

    If you're looking for a good skin mod without all the bloat of mods like u_skins, this is for you. A ridiculous amount of media can simply go into skin options on public servers nowadays, and this mod makes that media almost 0.

    Additionally, the customization features are pretty good: to rival u_skins textures a few more options might be needed, but this mod does all it needs to: offering a fantastic alternative to bloated skin mods! The formspec is also top notch. Recommended!

  • I love the setup!

    The mod's great, I love being able to customize it. If there's one suggestion I have is there could be sliders for every body part and not just specific ones like shirts and pants (being able to recolor your skin to green for example). This could be made optional with settings but I would love the option. I'd also love to have a template of the default Minetest playermodel beyond just Steve and Alex due to potential copyright concerns with Minecraft lol Beyond that the textures are consistent, the color picker works really well where it's available, I like the base variety and being able to expand it more with mods is amazing! I wanna get my dirty hands and create more textures via the API more ASAP.
