This mod is my reworked version of Cosmetic Armor.
The original mod has a few bugs, and it is licensed under MIT License. The author hasn't fixed them, so I figured why not make my own version.
This mod allows you to wear two sets of armor, one for display, one for function.
You can also hide armor for your skin.
For PVP, you can stop the mod from functioning on your client side.
You can press a key (default is set to 'None', you need to change it in Controls under Inventory category) or the button added in your inventory screen (bottom right to your character, similar to the Baubles button) to open the Cosmetic Armor Inventory, left side is your normal armor slots, right side is your cosmetic armor slots.
Any armor placed in cosmetic armor slots will not have any effect on you, only for display purpose.
They will drop on death. There is a config option to allow you to keep them after death.
Little square buttons on cosmetic slots are Skin toggles. When turned on (white), that piece of armor will not display at all.
This mod also adds those buttons to bauble slots. When turned on (white), that piece of bauble will not display at all. There is a config option to disable this.
Little square button on the left to inventory button is mod disable toggle. When turned on (white), the mod will not work on your client side, this is for PVP.
There is a command '/clearcosarmor [player]' to clear one's cosmetic slots.
There is an API for other mods to interact with.

Although it is fairly easy and simple to implement such button and hot key, my mod's sole purpose is just replace/hide those armors visually, swapping between them would be beyond that.
I think there are already mods that do similar job, like armor stands from BiblioCraft and modified vanilla armor stands by Quark.
If the pack you are playing doesn't have those, most packs come with tweaks to mouse movements that allow very fast item swapping. From my experience of playing Thaumcraft, once I got that charger thing, I rarely ran out of vis.
Creating an armor swapper through vanilla redstone would also be a fun challenge.
It is possible to implement this in an Addon mod as required API to manipulate cosmetic slots from out side is already in place. If you really need this feature, I could make it into an Addon mod.
In reply to ZLainSama:
Don't need it, was more of a convenience idea, and a time saver from swapping armors constantly.
If I would have started with Thaumcraft it'd have been simpler, but I didn't start Thaumcraft until I had the best armor and weapons/tools from Draconic Evolution. I'm just used to all the abilities/capabilities the armor gives me and feel naked without it.
As of this reply I just got to the charger, and recently got a flux cleanup system going, so it's not so bad/annoying anymore, but to start swapping armors to get the vis discount was annoying.
If you do 'want' to make it as an add on, I'd definitely use it, I'm sure others would to, but I'm not going to die if I don't have it.
In reply to ArashiDragon99437:
Okay.
I'm just lazy.
I'll keep this in a list of suggestions for when I decide to create such addon mod.
basically terraria armor.
how do you open the cosmetic armor menu? whenever i hit the button or the chestplate in the bottom right they just change color and nothing happens
In reply to EnzoIsPrettyCool:
Check your server side, the mod also needs to be installed on server for it to properly function.
In reply to ZLainSama:
Its just LAN
In reply to EnzoIsPrettyCool:
Which version are you using? and forge version.
In reply to ZLainSama:
1.13.2 and b110
In reply to EnzoIsPrettyCool:
Great, thank you for your report. I will get a fixed version out soon.
I love this mod, but could you please explain what you mean by “updated TombManyGraves2 integration”? What was changed, exactly? Didn’t Cosmetic Armor Reworked work with Tomb Many Graves 2 already?
In reply to Dimentive:
The latest TMG2 has changed it's API, it was working because TMG2 also provides updated replacement in it to remedy breakage. This update make the integration part in my mod compatible with latest TMG2's API. If you are not using latest TMG2, you shouldn't update my mod too.
In reply to ZLainSama:
Gotcha.
sorry to bother you but I don't see any info on the page about this, can I use this in my modpack? I'll be making Youtube videos using the pack and a server for me and my 4 friends.
In reply to Dracyab:
Yes, in most cases.
If you want to make sure, check the license.
In reply to ZLainSama:
Thank you
In reply to Dracyab:
You can use any mod on CurseForge in any modpack on CurseForge. Modpack authors cannot deny you the right to use a CurseForge mod in your CurseForge modpack, because it states in CurseForge’s terms of service, which everyone agrees to when they upload something to CurseForge, that any mod can be used in any modpack as long as both the mod and modpack are on this website.
There’s no reason to ask mod authors for permission. 🙂
In reply to Dimentive:
He said for him and his 4 friends. He didn't say he was gonna post the modpack on curseforge or anything.
In reply to heardyallgivingstuff:
If it’s a private modpack, he can use it. No one can deny you from using their mod in a private modpack, even if you never upload it to Curse. Legally, you can use any mod in your private modpack and even modify it if you want. The only time it’d be illegal is if someone uploads a modpack with a CurseForge mod that doesn’t have a specific license publically on a non-CurseForge site or they modify a mod and release it publically without permission.
In reply to Dimentive:
Sorry to tell you, but that's very wrong
