Minecraft Skin Randomizer
What it is
Minecraft Skin Randomizer is a free Linux program that generates Minecraft skins by combining parts stored in folders. The maker designed it with Minecraft Bedrock in mind and says it also works with Java skins. It creates combinations from component parts, so adding more pieces yields more possible results. Supported categories are base, head, body, left and right arms, and left and right legs; users customize parts by placing them in the corresponding folders. The program requires a configuration file provided with the `--config` flag. Its example JSON configuration covers the base, head, body, arms, and legs, and includes settings for the source parts folder and the output path. Generated skins are listed as PNG files. For Bedrock, the described workflow is to select a custom skin in the game and replace its local skin file with the generated one. The project is available for Linux and self-hosted use, and its repository lists an Apache-2.0 license. The creator describes the project as a small preset-based utility.
