Female Gender Plugin

What this plugin does

FemaleGenderPlugin is a lightweight server-side plugin for Female Gender Mod (Fabric / Forge). The mod itself lets each player customize how their body is rendered — but by default that data has to travel client-to-client. On offline-mode servers, or whenever direct client sync isn't reliable, players end up seeing outdated or default bodies for everyone else.

This plugin fixes that by becoming the relay: every client sends its mod data to the server once, and the server re-broadcasts it to everyone else — instantly, consistently, and regardless of the server's online-mode setting. No player-to-player negotiation, no missed updates.

Key features

• Works on offline/cracked servers — sync happens entirely server-side, so it doesn't depend on Mojang session/skin infrastructure the way peer-to-peer syncing can.
• Automatic, real-time resync — triggered on join, on quit, and whenever a player updates their mod settings in-game. Everyone online sees changes immediately.
• Broad mod-version support — speaks protocol versions 1 through 5, covering Wildfire's Gender Mod from 0.0.1 all the way through current releases, for both the Fabric and Forge packet formats.
• No player-facing configuration — nothing to set up for your players. If they have the mod installed, it just works.

How syncing works, in short

1. A player's client (running Female Gender Mod) sends its configuration to the server over the mod's plugin channel.
2. The plugin stores it and immediately re-serializes it for every online player, in the correct packet format for each recipient (Fabric or Forge).
3. When a new player joins, everyone (including the newcomer) gets re-synced, so nobody is stuck looking at stale data.

Configuration

mod:
  # The packet format used for mod data reads/writes.
  # -1 (default) always uses the newest known protocol, so you won't need
  # to touch this on routine plugin/mod updates.
  # An undocumented/unsupported value disables the plugin on launch.
  protocol: -1

If you need to pin a specific protocol (e.g. because your server intentionally runs an older mod build), set it explicitly:

Compatibility

• Server: Paper 1.21+ (Java 21)
• Client: Female Gender Mod, Fabric or Forge, versions 0.0.1 through current
• Players without the client mod installed are unaffected unless targeted via the developer API's forced-gender fallback
