So yeah, i want to have an NPC that can change skins, lets say, when attacking. I have 2 skin files, 1 normal and 1 attacking skin. Is it possible?

you  could do it with scripting -- what version?

 

im using MC 1.8 idk what mod version im using

Try this Javascript example:

var defaultSkin = "customnpcs:textures/entity/humanmale/mercenarysteve 2.png";
var attackSkin = "customnpcs:textures/entity/humanmale/magesteve.png";

function target(event) {
    event.npc.getDisplay().setSkinTexture(attackSkin);
}

function targetLost(event) {
    event.npc.getDisplay().setSkinTexture(defaultSkin);
}

 

Just replace the texture-paths with the two you want to use.
