Advanced Capes — FAQ

Tips & FAQ

What kind of link do I paste? A direct URL to a PNG image (it ends in .png and starts with http:// or https://). A link to a web page that merely shows the image will not work - you need the image file itself.

Where does the cape show? On your character in third-person view, drawn on the cloak / elytra slot - so it also shows through an elytra.

Can other players see my cape? Yes, as long as they also have Advanced Capes installed. Capes are synced between players on servers and in single-player.

How do I make an animated cape? Provide a tall PNG made of stacked frames, each frame twice as wide as it is tall. The mod detects the frame count automatically and plays it as a loop.

Will my cape be remembered? Yes - the mod saves your chosen cape in its config file and restores it between sessions.

How do I remove my cape? Use /setcape clear, or open the Configure Cape screen and set a different cape.

Does it need any other mods? No - Advanced Capes is standalone and has no library dependencies.
