Change player skin without replace the model

[Haman]

Hello.

Is there any way in Forge 1.16.3 to replace only the skin without cancel the whole model render and make my own?

I found a small and old mod which uses some reflection ({"getPlayerInfo", "func_175155_b"}, {"playerTextures", "field_187107_a"}), AbstractClientPlayer, NetworkPlayerInfo, ThreadDownloadImageData, IImageBuffer.

These things are in Forge 1.16.3 too? Because I can’t find them.

AbstractClientPlayerEntity.getPlayerInfo()?

Because I can’t find AbstractClientPlayer in 1.16.3.

I need the NetworkPlayerInfo#playerTextures field?

Okay.

What happens if I have a Steve type skin and then I replace it with an Alex type?

Simply change skinType from “default” to “slim”?

This will automatically change the skull texture too?

Or how can I modify it?
