NeoCraft Core 1.2.2 — Borrowed Face Update

This update introduces a new mystical appearance-transformation system integrated with Hexerei and Skin Changer.

Added

• Added the Hair Strand item.
• Added the Unbound Face Elixir.
• Added the Elixir of the Borrowed Face.
• Added Portuguese and English translations for all new items, tooltips and messages.
• Added optional compatibility with Hexerei and Skin Changer.

Hair Strand

Players can now collect another player's appearance:

1. Hold shears.
2. Sneak.
3. Right-click another player.

The Hair Strand stores:

• The target player's name.
• The target player's UUID.
• The skin currently synchronized by Skin Changer.

The shears lose one durability point when a strand is collected.

Unbound Face Elixir

The elixir base is brewed using the Hexerei Mixing Cauldron.

The recipe requires:

• 1,000 mB of water.
• Dried Belladonna Flowers.
• Mandrake Root.
• Dried Mugwort Flowers.
• Fermented Spider Eye.
• Amethyst Shard.
• Ink Sac.
• Ghast Tear.
• Glass Bottle.
• A heated Mixing Cauldron.

Elixir of the Borrowed Face

Combine an Unbound Face Elixir with a bound Hair Strand in a crafting grid.

The resulting elixir stores the appearance contained in the Hair Strand.

When consumed:

• The player receives the stored appearance.
• The transformation lasts for 10 minutes.
• The player's original appearance is stored temporarily.
• The original appearance is restored when the effect expires.
• The player's real username remains unchanged.
• Transformation and restoration messages appear above the hotbar.

Compatibility and Limitations

• Hexerei 0.5.0 or newer is required to brew the elixir base.
• Skin Changer 0.9.2 or newer is required to capture and apply appearances.
• The system currently copies only standard Minecraft skins.
• CPM models, Armourer's Workshop models, armor and Curios cosmetics are not copied.
• The target must have an appearance synchronized through Skin Changer.
• The dynamic binding recipe may not be displayed by JEI.

Technical

• Built for Minecraft 1.21.1.
• Built with NeoForge 21.1.250.
• Compatible with Create 6.0.10.
• Hexerei and Skin Changer integrations use optional loading safeguards to prevent startup crashes when unavailable.
