Dota2-SkinChanger is a client-side cosmetic replacement tool for Dota 2 (Valve, Source 2 engine). It allows you to equip any Arcana, Immortal, Collector's Cache set, or other cosmetic item on any hero without owning them. All changes are local-only — other players see your default loadout.
The tool modifies local item definition structures in memory to swap equipped cosmetics. It supports per-hero loadout profiles, live item preview in the hero showcase, and automatically restores original data on game exit.
