Description

Capes MTG (Server-Side Capes) 🔗

Adds smooth, dynamic 3D cosmetic capes with realistic movement physics and global wind simulation to Luanti/Minetest!

Ported and rewritten to run purely server-side, meaning no client modifications or CSMs are required for players to enjoy animated physics.

Features 🔗

  • Physics-Based Animation: Features smooth sway, movement inertia, walking balance (bobbing), and turn-inclination.
  • Idle Breathing: Natural idle waving movement even when standing still.
  • Global Wind Simulation: Dynamic world wind vectors that affect the direction and intensity of cape movement.
  • Hidden in First Person: Clean first-person view without clipping or blocking the player's camera.
  • Server-Side Native: Fully synchronized across all connected players automatically.

Future Commands 🔗

  • /cape <texture_name.png>: Allows players to change their cape texture on the fly.
