Frequently asked questions

How do I start making wearable items?
Place a leather cap and any supported item together in a crafting grid using a shapeless recipe, then take the result from the output slot. The finished item will have a Wearable tag and can be equipped directly into your helmet slot.
What happens if I place a wearable item on the ground?
Placing a wearable item on the ground will cause it to lose its wearable tag and revert to a regular block or item, so always keep wearables in your inventory or equipped.
Do I need a resource pack for the custom head models to show?
No, the mod works completely in vanilla Minecraft without requiring any resource packs—the custom models display automatically.
Can I use wearable items if I remove the data pack later?
Yes, wearable items retain all their custom properties even if you remove the pack from your world, though they will no longer display as wearable headwear.
