Cape Over Elytra
Cape Over Elytra is a lightweight client-side Fabric mod that lets you choose how your cape behaves while wearing an elytra.
It includes two visual modes available through Mod Menu:
- Cape Over Elytra: keeps your cape visible by hiding the rendered elytra model
- Cape Unless Flying: keeps your cape visible while wearing an elytra, but shows the elytra again while you are fall-flying
This mod is made for players who want better cape visibility without changing gameplay or requiring anything on the server.
Tested on Minecraft capes and OptiFine capes.
