FAQ

 - Q: My friends can't load my skin!

    A: CustomSkinLoader is a client mod, so make sure your friends also install it and you are not using a local skin.

 

 - Q: Default 3rd party online skin website.

    A: Arranged in the default load order: LittleSkin  BlessingSkin  Elyby  SkinMe  GlitchlessGames

 

- Q: How can I modify configurations of CustomSkinLoader?

   A: The config file is .minecraft/CustomSkinLoader/CustomSkinLoader.json . Unfortunately, there is no way to modify the CustomSkinLoader configuration file in the game currently, so you need to manually modify it by using a code editor (e.g. VSCode). However, we have a website to modify the configuration file online, you only need to import and modify your current configuration file.

 

- Q: What is the meaning of each item in the config file?

   A: There is a document written in Chinese.

 

 - Q: CustomSkinLoader always load Mojang skins instead of custom skins.

    A: CustomSkinLoader has the highest default priority for loading Mojang skins, so you should modify "loadlist" in config file.
