Wavey Capes

WaveyCapes brings your cape to life with smooth animations and realistic physics. Instead of a stiff block of a cape, this mod renders it as a single, flexible piece that bends and flows naturally.

Customize your cape's appearance and behavior using the in-game config screen - accessible via the mod list. Choose between different rendering styles, tweak wind effects, and fine-tune the physics to your liking.

Since WaveyCapes is purely visual and fully client-side, it works seamlessly on any server without requiring installation server-side.

Simulation V2 (Default)

• Capes sway left and right for a more dynamic feel
• Improved bending physics to prevent clipping or harsh angles
• Fully reworked underwater behavior and resistance

Different Styles

• Simulation V2 - Fully dynamic and simulated cape
• Simulation - "2022 was HOW long ago?"
• Classic - Just adds a nice bend into the cape
• Dungeons - Replica of the Minecraft Dungeons cape behavior

And probably many more, just try it and see!

• When swimming/crawling, the cape in Simulation V2 style can fold the wrong way.
• Custom slots like Curios are currently ignored for the cape offset.
• Mods that hide the chestplate like Show my Skin are also ignored for the cape offset.

Does this need to be installed on the server?

No. This is a fully client-side mod and does not need to be installed on the server.

Will this work with mod x that adds capes?

Try it and see. If the cape is implemented in a vanilla/mod friendly way, it should just work.

Can I get a cape?

This mod will not give you a cape. Either you already have one from Mojang, or use one of the many supported mods listed above to get one for free.

I am making a modpack, how do I remove that Essential button in the main menu/pause screen?

Open the poput by pressing the button, click on I don't want to see this and confirm. Make sure to include the config/essential-mod-partner/config.json in your modpack.
