Save the 64×32 PNG. Switch on the elytra preview to see how the same texture looks as wings.

How capes work in Minecraft

Official capes are given by Mojang and can't be uploaded from a file. A custom cape is visible with mods and launchers that support cape files, and the elytra part of the same texture can be used in a resource pack.

The cape texture is 64×32 pixels. The outer side is a 10×16 rectangle; the inner side, the edges and the elytra wings are stored next to it.

Questions and answers

Can I wear this cape on any server?

Other players only see official capes in the vanilla game. Custom capes are shown by mods and launchers that support them.

How do I put the cape into a resource pack?

Save the file as elytra.png and put it into assets/minecraft/textures/entity/equipment/wings/ in your resource pack (assets/minecraft/textures/entity/ for versions before 1.21.2).

Which side of the texture is the outside?

The outer side is the 10×16 rectangle in the top-left corner. Just paint on the 3D model and the editor finds the right pixels.

Is my cape saved?

Yes, your work is kept in this browser automatically until you clear the site data.
