Ents Flags Wiki & Guide

Horizontal flags extend sideways from poles or walls and feature a gentle waving animation. Hanging banners drop vertically from beneath blocks, fences, or chains, behaving very similarly to vanilla hanging signs.

Place your flag or hanging banner directly into a standard Minecraft loom along with any dye and optional banner pattern items. Both new banner types support all 16 vanilla dye colors and every standard pattern.

You can mount horizontal flags directly onto the sides of solid walls or attach them to poles so they fly sideways in the air. You can also hold them in your hand while walking around.

Hanging banners use the same placement rules as vanilla hanging signs. You can mount them to the side of a wall with a top bar, hang them under a solid block with two parallel chains, or suspend them from the bottom of fences and chains for a V-shaped chain look.

Craft your hanging banners using Nether wood types instead of standard Overworld woods. Any banner variant made with Nether wood is completely immune to fire and lava.

Yes, hanging banners have variants for every vanilla wood type, changing the look of the top mounting bar to match your build. Simply craft the banner using the specific wood type you want to display.

In addition to all vanilla woods, you can craft hanging banners using wood types from Biomes O' Plenty, Better End, Better Nether, Twilight Forest, and The Aether.

Hanging banners automatically switch to a converged V-shaped chain when placed directly underneath a narrow block like a fence or a chain. To get two straight parallel chains, place the banner directly against the underside of a full solid block.

Yes, horizontal flags have a built-in waving animation when placed in the world on walls or poles, as well as when held in your character's hand.

No new workstations are required. Both horizontal flags and hanging banners are crafted in a regular crafting table and customized inside a vanilla loom.
