ClothesPlus vs Yes Steve Model

ClothesPlus is a self-hosted Paper plugin for Minecraft Java servers that adds wardrobe overlays, character creation, and related server tools. It layers shirts, pants, shoes, hats, accessories, jackets, beards, and full-body outfits over player skins. A cursor-based creator supports appearance changes and configurable race and class systems. Players can browse wardrobe items, preview changes in a 3D viewer, zoom, drag to spin the avatar, then confirm or cancel edits. Outfits can be saved and loaded. ClothesPlus can build and send a resource pack or use ItemsAdder, Nexo, Oraxen, or CraftEngine. PacketEvents is required; the current setup recommends Paper 1.21.x and Java 21. Optional integrations include LuckPerms and Vault. The free edition costs nothing, includes basic wardrobe and commands, MySQL synchronization, and limited overlay slots.

Yes Steve Model is a free Minecraft mod for changing player models and animations with Minecraft Bedrock Edition model and animation files. It supports Bedrock model files from version 1.12.0 and compatible animation files from version 1.8.0. When ordinary players join a server, models can be synchronized to their computers; server operators can authorize individual models where authorization is required. Models distributed to clients are encrypted binary files, which the maker says helps prevent theft. Players press Z to open an animation wheel for motions and expressions. The mod lists compatibility with integrations including First-person Model, Carry On, Create, and Touhou Little Maid, subject to required versions. Release 2.6.5 supports Forge 1.20.1, Fabric 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and NeoForge 1.21.1 and 26.1.2. It should be installed on both the Minecraft client and server for all functions to work normally. Supported clients include Windows and Linux AMD64 and Android AArch64; macOS is unsupported. Mobile play is supported through compatible launchers.
