Armor Override is a client-side mod that replaces worn armor models with custom Blockbench .bbmodel files loaded from your game folder. It is useful for servers with custom-named armor items, such as Hypixel SkyBlock-style setups. The mod matches equipped armor by displayed item name and renders your custom model on your client.
How to use
- 1.Start the game once to generate the ArmorOverride folder
- A default DragonArmorModel.bbmodel is included as a reference
- Put your own .bbmodel files in that folder
- Edit replacements.txt
- Map model names to armor display names:
(Names only check for Alphanumeric characters, ignoring all other characters)
Example:
blockbench_model_name:item display name
DragonArmorModel:Dragon Helmet
DragonArmorModel:Dragon Platebody
DragonArmorModel:Dragon Platelegs
DragonArmorModel:Dragon Shoes
Matching is case-insensitive and ignores extra spaces.
Blockbench structure Use Minecraft armor bones as the top-level groups:
- head
- hat
- body
- right_arm
- left_arm
- right_leg
- left_leg
- right_boot
- left_boot
Optional:
- waist inside body for leggings-style waist geometry
Example:
body
waist
right_arm
left_arm
right_leg
left_leg
right_boot
left_boot
head
hat
Notes:
- Client-side only
- Does not change gameplay
- Other players will not see your custom armor unless they use the same setup
