DGLib Mod (1.20.1) – Swap Body Parts And Add Glowing Effects to Your Character

DGLib is a library mod designed to support cosmetic and appearance-modifying add-ons. Most players only need this mod if another mod specifically requires it as a dependency. Mod developers can use DGLib's tools to manipulate player character models without causing conflicts with other modifications.

Features

• Provides required backend code for cosmetic mods to function properly.
• Swaps individual character body parts, such as arms or legs, while preserving the rest of the player skin.
• Adds transparent overlay layers to player models, improving compatibility with custom armor textures.
• Applies glow effects to specific pixels on character models using light layers.
• Automatically disables glow effects during combat when using the Epic Fight mod to prevent visual glitches.
• Merges skin textures using image composition instead of complex rendering code, reducing mod conflicts.
