Equip and Animate Your Batman Cape

Getting Your Cape Ready

Batman capes function as elytra replacements, so you need to equip them in your chestplate slot just like you would normal elytra wings. Craft or obtain a cape using the mod's custom recipes, then place it in your chestplate armor slot.

Seeing the Animations

Once equipped, your cape will respond to your movements:

• Walking and running: The cape flows naturally behind you as you move
• Crouching: Press and hold sneak (default Shift) to see the cape spread out and expand
• Gliding: Jump and press space to activate elytra flight mode—your cape will flap and billow as you soar through the air
• Landing: The cape settles back to normal when you touch the ground

The animations work best when you're moving at speed. Try gliding off a tall structure to see the full cape physics in action. If you have physics mods installed, the fabric will swing and bounce more realistically with each movement.
