Capes Mod — Configuration

Configuration

The mod provides an extensive configuration menu, typically accessible via the Mod Menu screen or a dedicated keybind (default: N or C depending on the specific build).

Config Options

Users can modify the capes.json or cape-provider.json5 file located in the .minecraft/config directory to fine-tune their experience:

  • Enable/Disable Providers: Toggle individual services (e.g., turn off OptiFine capes but keep MinecraftCapes active).
  • Cape Visibility: A master toggle to show or hide all capes in the game.
  • HD Support: Enable or disable high-resolution texture rendering to save on VRAM.
  • Animation Speed: Adjust the frame rate for animated capes.
  • Custom URL: Some versions allow players to input a direct URL to a .png file to set their own cape without using an external service.

Keybindings

Commands

While primarily managed through a GUI, the mod includes several commands for quick adjustments and troubleshooting:

  • /cape reload - Forces the mod to re-fetch cape textures for all players currently in the world.
  • /cape toggle - Quickly switches your own cape visibility on or off.
  • /cape set <url> - (Available in specific versions) Sets your cape to a direct image link.
  • /cape reset - Removes any custom overrides and returns to the default cape assigned to your UUID.
