### Skin Restorer

Developers: SRTeam    

### What and Why?

When operating a crack server, you must set ‘online-mode’ to ‘false.’ This, however, causes skins to stop working, causing all players who join your server to identify with a Steve or Alex skin. To resolve this situation with crack servers, you’ll need to include a plugin that can restore players’ skin, which is where Skin Restorer comes in. Using Skin Restorer allows users to join with the skin associated with their in-game name.

The reason why skins don’t load in the first place, is because crack servers don’t authenticate with the Mojang skin server.

> If you are running a cracked server, please make sure that you’ve set it up to be safe and secured. Setting `online-mode` to `false` can make your server vulnerable.
