## SkinCraft 1.3.8-rc.1
**Minecraft:** 26.1, 26.1.1, 26.1.2, 26.2, 26.3 · **Loader:** Fabric · **Java:** 25+
### Highlights
- **Minecraft 26.3 support:** Use one SkinCraft JAR across all five Minecraft versions listed above.
- **Hex color input:** Fix number-key and numpad handling and update text-input focus behavior on 26.3.
- **Preview rotation:** Fix right-click drag rotation in the local and community skin galleries on 26.3.
- **Compatibility fixes:** Correct the cape entity-preview and overlay-message fallback paths used by older Minecraft versions.
### Compatibility
- This is a **release candidate**, published for testing before the final 1.3.8 release.
- Requires **Fabric API matching your Minecraft version** and a compatible Fabric Loader. Validation uses Fabric Loader **0.20.1**.
- Automated startup and editor smoke checks cover all five listed Minecraft versions. Manual testing on 26.3 was reported successful.
- Multiplayer, detailed in-world appearance across versions, and alternative graphics backends still need broader testing.
- Minecraft 26.4 snapshots and Minecraft 1.21.x are not supported by this release.
### Install
- Add **`skincraft-1.3.8-rc.1.jar`** and Fabric API matching your Minecraft version to the client `mods` folder. Use the same SkinCraft JAR for every version listed above. Remove the previous SkinCraft JAR first.
- New to Fabric? [fabricmc.net/use](https://fabricmc.net/use/) — choose the same Minecraft version as your installation.
### Notes for developers and modpacks
- SkinCraft is client-side; a server installation is not required. Java 25 or newer is required.
- Please include your Minecraft version, Fabric Loader/API versions, and relevant logs when reporting an issue.
