AlphaSkins

A long while ago Mojang removed the ability for the client to render skin's alpha channel. This broke skins that used transparency in an artistic manner. <br> This mod aims to reintroduce that functionality. Using mixins it turns off the code that strips the alpha channel from the skin upon rendering. <br> This mod doesn't make it so other people see your transparent skins. This only affects your client's rendering. <br> Original mixin for Fabric was found This mod doesn't make it so other people see your transparent skins. This only affects your client's rendering., I just used the info found in it to port this mixin to Forge as well as added a few more to make the transparency seamless as if it was made first party. <br> Essentially this mod adds 3 mixins. The first one is disabling the alpha and color stripping for the skin downloading class. This class normally will set the alpha to be 0 making nothing transparent. The second mixin is a variant of the same mixin just for a SkinProcessor class, which only seems to be used for Realms-related stuff. The third mixin patches the FirstPersonRenderer class and makes the hand respect transparency. Normally it's rendered without any care to the alpha channel but using head injection I was able to override that.
