SkyBack

SkyBack is a client-side Fabric mod that reverts the changes introduced by Hypixel SkyBlock's resource-pack update, restoring the look and feel of the game from before the update.

SkyBack is unofficial and not affiliated with or endorsed by Hypixel.

Features

• Keeps your own textures: optionally blocks the server's force-enabled resource pack so your own/vanilla textures stay.
• Restores vanilla item models: items render as their normal Minecraft item instead of the purple missing-texture model.
• Paper-item remap: items that were turned into paper are mapped back to their old vanilla item.
• Old player-head skulls: restores the classic player-head skull rendering.
• Tooltip fix: removes the broken (black/purple) custom tooltip frame.

Commands & keybind

• /skyback - open the toggle menu (master on/off + optional resource-pack block).
• /skyback debug on|off - record id to item mappings for items not yet covered.
• Keybind "Open SkyBack menu" (bindable in Controls).

Requirements

• Minecraft 26.1.2
• Fabric Loader + Fabric API
• Client-side only (no server install)
