# Sneaky Capes
\nRenders 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.<\/p>\n
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\/<\/p>\n
To insert a cape texture into your skin, i recommend using Loom (a skin editor i made):
\n– load your player’s skin first using the “Load skin” dialog, either choosing a file or loading your current skin
\n– shift+click the “Load skin” button to show the hidden “Insert cape from file: ” button
\n– insert the 64×32 pixel cape texture of your choosing
\n– after the cape has been inserted, press the “Save image” button, save the file and then upload it as your skin at minecraft.net
\n– 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)<\/p>\n
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.<\/p>\n
The usage of unused areas of the skin texture mostly doesn’t conflict with how Entity Texture Features uses the unused areas; the markers are in different locations and the blinking textures don’t overlap with the cape textures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
