📋 About This Mod
# Sneaky Capes Renders custom cape textures hidden in the unused portions of the player's skin texture, avoiding the need (and dependency) of a 3rd party service to host the images. This mod doesn't provide any cape textures itself, it only loads them from your skin texture! For a collection of official and unofficial cape textures (including the one in the mod icon), see https://penguinspy.dev/projects/sneaky_capes/ To insert a cape texture into your skin, i recommend using (https://penguinspy.dev/projects/loom/) (a skin editor i made): - load your player's skin first using the "Load skin" dialog, either choosing a file or loading your current skin - shift+click the "Load skin" button to show the hidden "Insert cape from file: " button - insert the 64x32 pixel cape texture of your choosing - after the cape has been inserted, press the "Save image" button, save the file and then upload it as your skin at (https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/msaprofile/mygames/editskin) - any player using this mod will be able to see your custom cape. players not using this mod will see your account's actual cape (if any) You don't *have* to use Loom, but it's a lot easier than spliting the textures up and inserting them in the right position manually. The usage of unused areas of the skin texture mostly doesn't conflict with how (https://github.com/Traben-0/Entity_Texture_Features/blob/ETF-Main/.github/README-assets/SKIN_GUIDE.md) uses the unused areas; the markers are in different locations and the blinking textures don't overlap with the cape textures.
