Advanced Capes — Guide

Animated Capes

Advanced Capes supports animated capes. If you give it a tall image made of stacked frames - where each frame is twice as wide as it is tall - the mod detects the frame count automatically and plays the cape as a looping animation.

• Stack your frames vertically into a single tall PNG.
• The mod reads the frame count from the image's proportions - no manual frame setting needed.
• The frame time (how fast the animation plays) is configurable.

This lets you wear moving banners, shimmering effects, or short looping scenes as a cape.

Multiplayer

Capes are synced between players. When you set a cape, everyone on the server who also has the mod installed sees it on you, and you see theirs. Advanced Capes is client-and-server aware, so it works on multiplayer servers as well as in single-player.

Players without the mod installed will not see custom capes - both sides need Advanced Capes for the capes to show.
